    In a rather epic first generation of Wiemar County, Swenson von Strüpengard was given the title of count of Weimar at the age of 28 (character creator), and his wife bore him 6 children over 40 years. During this time, at a banquet of the Duke's Count Swenson engages with a Baroness Noble and procures a daughter with her. Swenson would never legitimize her; but, being honorable, made a promise that he would look out for her. He arranged a marriage between his bastard daughter with the heir of France, who found her beautiful.

    Later, Swenson's wife would die, and he would remarry in his early 70s. His sons were all members of his council, with great stats, and his later, his illegitimate daughter would die, leaving him with unclaimed grandchildren of French Royalty. His new wife would bear him 2 additional children, one being birthed when Swenson was 81!

    Meanwhile, due to being greedy, having the middle son die in a family of 3 boys and 6 girls, the youngest brother realized that the oldest of the three was not going to live to see a long rule. 15 years apart, he realized that he had a much better option to be the leader, and so, he attempted to assassinate his older brother, Swenson's direct heir. Swenson instantly tried to imprison him, but the youngest son fled off to the Greek Isles, where he had made friends with his colleagues while mentoring under a Byzantine Duke. Swenson's oldest son later died in a mysterious accident, and realizing that he only had his estranged son left as a male heir, he invited him back to court, forgiving him of his trespasses.

    The youngest son would become Chancellor again, and Swenson always knew that his son murdered his rightful heir, but he could never prove it. Driven in insanity, he had mad fits of rage throughout his life. Many said that it was from conquering far off lands on behalf of his liege during the crusades; but he died just before his 83rd birthday from severe stress.

    Now, the youngest of his sons has 4 sisters to contend with, and several nephews who will shortly be coming of age to take the vengeance of their father. Wiemar County's long reign of Swenson von Strüpengard are over; and so begins a new era, almost a full century later.

    I actually had a 50% off Crusader Kings 2 coupon from Steam that was given to me by crafting badges. If I had seen this thread sooner, I would've given it anyone that was interested.

    Oh man... The Old Gods is ridiculous. The Norse are crazy powerful, and the wars are so expensive, but not doing so causes so much more strife... And the religion revamp is pretty interesting too. Now I just want to be able to play a Theocracy.

    I tried to play this on my old comp but it wouldn't work because I wanted the GoT mod. I heard it was freaking awesome. I may look into trying it again now that this lappy can run it.

    The Old Gods is really a great expac isn't it? Currently playing as Iceland and slowly plotting my takeover of the British Isles.
