Errata: Longbowmen base stats haven’t changed - it’s just that these vary through each changing era and eventually go from being weaker than regular bowmen to surpassing them. Learn something new for this game every day!

[@zakariahbensaid8114]

The horde of daughters makes it so much more realistic!

[@MellowScot]

I have no idea how this managed to happen - I didn't reload for this and surely it's a 50% chance each time unless I'm missing something behind the scenes (meaning a 0.1 % chance of 10 daughters in a row...)

The funniest thing about Henry the VIII is that he was in a wrestling match with the king of France and he got angry cause he lost, than decided to declare war against France

[@MellowScot]

I should have tried to qualify for a wrestling match!

Acktshually 🤓☝ Henry was quite the learned man, especially in matters of Theology (which is quite ironic) and is said to have been an excellent student

[@MellowScot]

Honestly was quite hard to decide what to dock points from without cheating the 400 limit

[@blodhevn2353]

Acktshually the longbow tradition is unchanged, everything is the same as "live" as well.

He also wrote a very popular song.

It's really interesting to note that Henry Tudor started as a very charismatic, athletic, smart king, but after a joust where he was knocked unconscious for a couple of hours (likely major brain damage) he started becoming the gluttonous, wrathful king we know today.

[@Borgborg128]

A character in Fire and Blood, GRR martins prequel book. There is a king named Aegon the Unworthy who has a very similar story. Lol def see who he was based on now

[@Rockstar-bq5fm]

This looks fantastic, you always do a great job of showing off the game mechanics and strategies while being entertaining

[@MellowScot]

Thanks so much!

[@Miranda17137]

I would be tickled if the game has the 'historic' explanation of why Henry turned into a bastard - brain damage sustained during a joust.

[@MellowScot]

Jousts don’t unlock until a bit later in this start date, but yeah he also sustained some pretty terrible physical injuries and couldn’t compete anymore, he also had malaria and smallpox and various points which probably didn’t help his mood all that much

[@Renodox]

Good video, showed off the new mechanics well, along with making an entertaining story.

[@MellowScot]

Thanks a bunch that’s what I was hoping for with this one!

Is it random to have so many daughters in a row? Can’t test right now - maybe naming your char Henry Tudor could cause that? Like an easter egg.

Great work creating Henry visually - very, very life like and very impressive work especially with CK3's character creator which is very user unfriendly. In relation to his traits, I was thinking about greedy because of the dissolution of the monasteries, except that young Henry (before his jousting accidents) was said to be very generous. So then I thought maybe he should get the "profligate" trait instead. Also, you could argue that post-accidents Henry should be Paranoid and Callous, but young Henry wouldn't be. Obviously I agree with Gluttonous (except that young Henry would have had a supercharged Athletic trait to burn off the calories!) Unfortunately in CK3, personality traits don't typically change throughout a ruler's life, but Henry is a perfect example of how a ruler's personality could change almost completely as a result of injury or life experiences, maybe this should be explored in future DLC. Also, in relation to stats, Henry was an avid theologian and took a personal interest in matters of theology, even writing a book (with assistance from certain clerics) defending the Seven Sacraments of Catholicism against Martin Luther, the Assertio Septem Sacramentorum. I'd say Learning should be one of his highest stats. Stewardship was where he was really poor - he had (particularly in his youth) very little interest in business of state. He could be quite diplomatic when it didn't conflict with what he wanted, but often it did, notably the break from Rome! I would say he should have middling Diplomacy and Martial, above average Learning, and below average Stewardship. Intrigue is hard to say because although he was paranoid and ran what has been likened to a Stalinist regime, he personally wasn't any great detective from my knowledge and relied on others, also he could be fairly easily manipulated by courtiers appealing to his prejudices, as in the allegations of witchcraft, adultery and incest against Anne Boleyn which were almost certainly fabrications or at least gross exaggerations, so I would say probably average at best. I agree with you giving him above average Prowess! Very nice video idea and keep up the good work.

You could read the "richest man in babylon", or Adam Smith's book "Wealth of nations", and make a CK3 stewardship video based on them, like how you made a military ck3 video as sun tzu, or intrigue video as machalevili Eventually you could make one about a diplomatic character and learning one. But also PLS make a video that has the irish boxer "The Candyman" as a CK3 video eventually.... thanks
