Holy Fury added a new gamerule that’s disables many “silly” events, which I’d recommend if you don’t like the absurdities.

I love absurdities. If I didn’t regenerate my bits I would’ve broken the long line of... well, whatever the name was, I can’t remember, first-born sons taking over my duchy/kingdom/empire.

Look, we need to raise a psychopath who will murder God, we have no time to be spending on cooking.

the way your fingertips plant meaningless soliloquies makes me think you are the true evil among us.

There's also events where you make your cat into a spymaster. Also werewolf events. You can also fight Chthulu. And bless the rains down in Africa. And find a chest while raiding, open and find out... there's an angel in it; the angel just peaces out and leaves you with jack shit.

CK2 is a game about inter-personal drama with a historical dressing on top of it. It's fine for silly shit to happen.

Speaking of the notCthulhu thing, how the hell do you kill a god with a longboat?

Also, I half expected some kind of unique game over when you go through with the summoning instead of developing a conscience. Instead, your character just dies.

The 'bless rain' and raindance stuff down in Africa doesn't come off as absurd since it really is down in the desert and water is an issue. Found them to be more of a hassle, if anything, since it sucks up your gold.

That's pure "call of cthulhu"

You silly, you don't kill gods with a longboat!

You kill gods with an automatic firearm!

Well, the OG Cthulhu Killer just slammed his boat straight into Cthulhu, so I guess CK 2's version is close enough.

There are only two sure things in life: death and taxes and lists and poor arithmetic and overlong jokes and poor memory and probably a few more things.

Your character actually has a damn good chance of making it out alive after ramming Cthulhu.

Yeah, but I'm referring to the choice where your character dies during the summoning.

edit: Just noticed the quote screwup.

Someone should write a mod where it automatically grants you great ppwers (auto-demonchild yourself?) But drives everyone into aggro

New dev diary; this one is about Wonders.

I think I'll also share a get-rich-quick scheme as a Christian ruler:
1. Make sure your religious head loves you.
2. Have a broad personal demesne, or just have lotsa city vassals in a small demense.
3. Find a mayor with a lot of money, then buy a favor from them; you'll need it.
4. Keep imprisoning the excommunicated mayor until they revolt, then win the ""war"".
5. Revoke their sole title; if they change the court, release and invite them back with a favor. Otherwise, banish him.
6. Have a high skill Marshal to improve your chances to recapture the former mayor; once they're imprisoned again, banish them.
7. Voila! Enjoy the gold you've stolen redistributed into your treasure chest!

Much less active than I used to be on these forums, but I still visit them on occasion. Will probably resume my activity in full once Dwarf Fortress will be released on Steam.

When I need money I just invite every wealthy but landless and family-less person I can to my court and wait for them to die.

I see HIP mod is now updated.   Since Holy Fury was heavily inspired by  CK2+, then is HIP + HF  the future?
