My favorite is the acts of vengance. I keep a family tree going and assign (arbitrarily) favorites to the king when they're born. One of the Princesses was killed and she so happened to be Daddy's Little Girl. Only 17 and slain in her bed in Sweden. (Nothing pulls my heartstrings more than the graphic of a slain princess ) We captured another Assasin in Denmark that year working for France so I went to war with France. An excommunication and a revolt later my king was dead on the shores of Flanders and I had to work like crazy to rebuild several alliances.

I really enjoy building internal stories almost more than playing the game. I keep pretty detailed notes and histories, sometimes writting biographies for all my kings and several influential people when the die. I name military campaigns etc. I'm a goon what can I say.
