Crusader Kings II

Now, I can't play it with you?

I am interested in hosting a PBM succession game.

Just asking here if anyone is interested and if you are, what kind of starting point would you like?

An idea might be the Habsburgs, the each of us taking over through the generations and expanding to see how far we can get.

If there is interest, I will make the topic in the throne room.

With an idea of the rules (as in how long the turns are for each player or if people will load different characters etc), I might be interested :P

Each person will control a character ruler. So lets say I go first, I play till my King dies then you play his successor, etc.

Should be fun watching what people do, I'm in...
For the setting, I've always wanted to start a game as El Cid, gotta check for the exact date, but he can start as independent with Valencia...
If people prefer a larger scope, maybe we could give a try with Richard the Lionheart or Barbarossa :P

In the end I'm ok with anything lol

that would be around 1075 ill play if i can be one of the earlier players.

El Cid...

Starting 1 January, 1094, you can find Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar in the game's default set up as the independant Count of Valencia.

That would be a tough one!

Starting points later than 1066 should be considered if this will become a thing. Right now muslim factions start a bit too powerful in relation to their christian neighbors at the earliest date. The early tech advantage combined with incredible ruler demesnes means that it takes a miracle for the Fatimids to suffer any sort of calamity in vanilla. They use that stability to run over absolutely everyone in my experience.

I'd suggest something closer to either 1080, 1090 or 1100 to have a good point to start from. They are all nice round numbers and let the AI grow and collapse a bit more organically.
