You could also try to get insanely lucky with the Babushka by having the following unlikely events happen: 1) Have the Immortality quest chain fire. 2) Survive long enough for the entire quest chain to play out. 3) Turn out to have had a real immortal, not a charlatan, as your mentor. 4) Succeed in the correct mentor's correct test by picking the correct answer... and then getting quite lucky. Yeah. It certainly ain't moving her any higher in this list.
I'm a relatively new player and I rolled over the entire north and formed the Empire of Scandinavia with relative ease from Iceland. It's not a hard start at all.
You should go watch Shut up & Sit Down's review of the game called Archipelago, they couldn't settle on a right pronunciation so they went for all of them
Hunting focus, dog/cat (dog is more likely with hunting) rerolling to get gluttonous (and hopefully fat eventually, feasts should help), does dark familiar clash with pet, and if not then can it give health? I know there are some artefacts that give health but I doubt you can get them that quick. Technically a very good physician and a mild illness on something that already doesn't take much health would actually increase your health but it's undependable. If you start with military education you get +0.5 health. you technically can get rowdy/strong (not sure which) from an event in martial focus but you can't afford to risk 5 years on that for an EXTREMELY rare event Can a vassalized countess get the seeking immortality event, because I remember the martial one giving you robust BUT you need AT LEAST 9 years to get rank 4 since joining
Iceland is actually extremely strong. You're immune to the black death, meaning if you set it to frequent you have very easy conquest. Also, merchant republic = OP

I had an interesting experience playing Iceland campaign. I played it even before the Holy Fury dlc came out. >Started as opm chief of Iceland. >conquered my neighbor (with event troops because of steward "build a legend" activity). >married the sister of Ragnarr, created an alliance with him. >used it to conquer Gothland (wasted my Subjugation cb on it). >raised an army a bit with 500 prestige, used it to coquer Føroyar and most of it's de-jure duchy. >changed religion to catholic, took a loan, expelled jews, invited some rich landless persons to court.

Now it is an abolutly centralized state with 10 well-developed holdings, that is colonizing the whole Britain with it's trade posts. Some kingdoms try to break free, but they don't stay a chance against the brave 10k troops of my holings' levy, retinues and custom mercenary company. My ruler has 100 monthly income, my capital is the richest county in the world. Yeah, IMHO, that wasn't difficult country to play.
King Eadmund of east Anglia was a real dude and pretty metal. The story goes that he didn’t want to convert so the Vikings tied him to a tree and made him into a pin cushion with arrows. They knew that Christians believed in very specific burial rights and if the whole body wasn’t present to be buried, the person couldn’t go to heaven. So, they cut of eadmunds head and hid it in the woods. Eadmund was pretty chill about the whole ordeal, and played a Viking age game of Marco Polo with the east Anglians, guiding them to his head with his disembodied voice. When they found his head, it was being guarded by a fox, so animals wouldn’t eat it. They buried him and now he’s a catholic saint.
Oh god, everytime I see King Phineas of Semien it triggers my PTSD. I have tried to make a successful jewish campaign far too many times and I never managed to do it.
I managed to pull off the Kingdom of David achievement starting as him. Granted it took about a week of playing and I failed on my first try due to being burned at the stake as a heretic after pledging allegiance to the Muslim emperor. Pro tip on that never become a counselor if you are still openly Jewish. Because if you do you will be in their court and they can execute you. Also focus on getting the silk road trade post's around the horn of Africa in internal wars and moving your capital. Things get easier after that.
It's easier nowadays - secret religion, China interactions... I did this as a nearby tribal ruler, whom became Jewish after holywarring Semien and reforming as MR (Jewish MR - for more narrative, ya know - all those Radhanite quarters...everywhere). Suck Pooh milk for years (tributary and/or marriage) and ask him to shatter Abba, easy from there :)
I started as Count Giacopo and within one generation I was the king of Eygpt, most starting places are easy if you just betroth your children to strong realms. If you fabricate a claim to the land to the right of the Pope you can semi easily become a Duke and expand more from there.

@@valonyaver600 yep but I don't know why Paradox believes that in Canary Island we were moors previous to the conquest... maybe because they were lazy to design a new model for natives...
I remember playing Crusader Kings 2, I had a very powerful nation, but one day i was at war with 2 other kingdoms and winning, But then i got declared war on by another, They were no king but a mere adventurer, I laughed at the adventurer at first, But this i looked at their profile only to see that they had over 53k troops and were destined.
Time to one-up your Iceland, I started as Iceland in 769 prior to the Monks, became Marathi, Hindu, and got the British Raj achievement in the process. Still one of the funnest games I've ever played of CK2.
High Chief Zistisbor of Sorbia in the 867 bookmark is pretty bad, you can't really invade it's neighbours, which are Greater Poland, a tributary of Greater Moravia and East Francia. In the north, however, is the Chiefdom of Dymin, which is worth like nothing. You start with a trash army and only 2 martial. And most of the time, you get invaded by Greater Poland, which you'll probably not survive.
Kingdom of David isn't even close to impossible, it's not even that hard of a challenge, just start under the abbasids as a governor of Jerusalem,secure a large portion in the caliphate, and start secretly converting all provinces to jewish
Iceland 867 is a really fun, and absolutely doable start. Ever heard of viking raids? (plenty of ships) OP Pagan prestige retinues? Just pick 'Become king' ambition and you get free subjugation CB's on everyone in your kingdom. You can blob like crazy as ANY Pagan Norseman with decent martial in 867. Iceland 1066, Now that's hard!
I'm currently playing Maldives. It's the year 923 and my grandson just inheired Raj of Vengi from his mother who was married to my son. Then he actually conquered Andhara so he is Maharaja right now and he is also my successor. Yes, I have primogeniture succesion law because my spy studied legalism technology in Byzantium. So as you see, playing as Thakur of Maldives is not that boring and pointless as you may think.
I actually had an Eadmund of East Anglia campaign....let's just say the Vikings didn't last 20 years and I formed Brittany within 50 years. Fun campaign that one was....would recommend a Brittany campaign any day.
#5 Nordland is my favorite state to play as. It's not bad at all compared to the others you mentioned. I think the set up for the start date can be fixed easily by just switching your capital to Austisland.
I actually had a pretty good came of Giocopo; I was able to take over most of Italy while remaining a vassal to the Pope. If I remember correctly, I conquered the counties of Southern Italy and took advantage of HRE civil wars. By the end I was a Duke, the Pope's ONLY vassal, and very wealthy.
Think before pronouncing. "Shaykhah" is related and similarly pronounced as "Sheikh", and you can probably pronounce that word. The "Ead" in Eadmund is pronounced as Ed. Today many names on Ed- are derived from English nobles, such as Edward, Edgar, Edwin etc...
I usually do the 769 start so for some of these guys I can play it in non iron man mode and use wemod and some cheese to get these guys up there real fast and see what happens.
I might be the worst ruler, I rebuilt the whole Empire of Brittania+some holy roman empire lands then, slowly capturing lands near denmark and accidentally pressed surrender instead of enforce demands. Ironman mode is merciless, couldn't redo.
@4:47 Sardinia. You start with Sardinia. As for the Pope you keep him happy. I'd say you should take the martial focus but if you need to, take the carousing focus. In the mean time be dillehent with alliances After that when the crusades start make sure you join in. When there is a big army, make sure that your army is the first to engage the enemy in the decisive battle, the rest of the armies should fall in. After becoming ruler of the crusade target you then swear fealty to HRE. Consolidate power. Then begin conquering Muslim lands. With the HRE protecting you as their vassal you should be able to expand without creating defensive pacts. Make sure your succession laws are in good order, and be a good boy to the emperor. Until you have the Near East under your control and absolute monarchy laws. Once you hold the land required it's time to abandon the HRE. Form a faction for independence. (Try to make sure you have the Papal States in it. Not necessary but it'll make subjugating the Papal States later easier. I didn't in my game and he got pissy so it was anti-pope time) Once independent proclaim Empire of Outremar. Conquer the shattered Muslim remnants. Convert the Muslim to the light of Christianity. Conquer all the way into India. Conquer all of Africa. That's how ya play Orvieto.

funny how you mention giacopo of orvieto as i am just playing a game with him. married mathilda, made secret shia cult. as i had 3 sons and tuscany has gavelkind my prefered heir needed to kill his older brothers, which made me quit my secret cult and join the assassins. after i killed both of them he died as well and my heir was still 10 yo and i had obviously lost track of my secret cult until... my liege, the holy roman emperor flipped the whole HRE to shia. lol
Luitfredo is very hard, but Ummayad holy wars tend to just vassalize you so it's not an immediate game over. Also, your wife can still get pregnant and since she's the daughter of a previous king your children get claims on Astutias.

Make sure your succession laws are in good order, and be a good boy to the emperor.
Until you have the Near East under your control and absolute monarchy laws. Once you hold the land required it's time to abandon the HRE. Form a faction for independence. (Try to make sure you have the Papal States in it. Not necessary but it'll make subjugating the Papal States later easier. I didn't in my game and he got pissy so it was anti-pope time)
Once independent proclaim Empire of Outremar. Conquer the shattered Muslim remnants. Convert the Muslim to the light of Christianity. Conquer all the way into India. Conquer all of Africa.
That's how ya play Orvieto.
Those are the tamil kings, no one conquers the tamil kings.

ISP and Brightsides unholy child
funny how you mention giacopo of orvieto as i am just playing a game with him. married mathilda, made secret shia cult. as i had 3 sons and tuscany has gavelkind my prefered heir needed to kill his older brothers, which made me quit my secret cult and join the assassins. after i killed both of them he died as well and my heir was still 10 yo and i had obviously lost track of my secret cult until... my liege, the holy roman emperor flipped the whole HRE to shia. lol
Third, third time's the charm
Luitfredo is very hard, but Ummayad holy wars tend to just vassalize you so it's not an immediate game over. Also, your wife can still get pregnant and since she's the daughter of a previous king your children get claims on Astutias.
