Can This COUNT Avenge his FATHERS DEATH? - Crusader Kings 3 Stop Haesteinn Challenge A-Z

In the 867 start date, Vikings dominate northern Europe! But one Viking has made it all the way down to France! Haesteinn slew Count Eudes father before he was born, but now the young man vows to avenge his father... and STOP HAESTEIN!
Count Eudes start merely a young man, but his dynasty would become the true leaders of France for years to come! In this challenge run, Koifish will attempt to stop Haesteinn and avange his father, as well as forming the kingdom of France through the power of intrigue and martial!
I will be using all the tips and tricks and strategies that I went over in my CK3 Lifestyle guide series, mainly focusing on Martial and Learning! I'm also playing with all the current CK3 DLC, Including Northern Lords, Royal Court and Fate of Iberia!
This is part of a series of videos where I will be playing EVERY starting character In Crusader Kings 3! A collection of over 30 different characters, the best starts, the most interesting starts, the strongest characters, and the hardest CK3 challenges!
The question still stands... Can this COUNT avenge his FATHERS DEATH? Let's watch this Crusader Kings 3 Stop Haesteinn Challenge and find out!

[@Koifish]

In this episode of CK3 with Koifish: I face my inner demons and play as a vengeful little Frenchman instead of going to real therapy! VERY NICE! This is the first part of a over 30 part long series, where I will be playing as EVERY suggested starting character in Crusader Kings 3! It's going to take a while, but It's going to be fun! Do you have a favorite character (please don't say Haesteinn I don't want to relapse again), tell me down in the comments!

Haesteinn

The Jimena brothers definitely

Paradox games, a real man's therapy.

[@robbiemurray2895]

Bjorn Ironside, Haesteinn's accomplice in fact, when you do the sons of Ragnar go from oldest to youngest (iornside, whiteshirt, snake in the eye, boneless if I'm remembering them correctly)

[@Logan0503]

Count Dawit, who is that one Jewish vassal of Abyssinia. I’d challenge you to do a Beta Israel -> Restore the Kingdom of Israel -> Convert to Hinduism 7 Holy Cities run. I tried it recently (didn’t succeed) and it was very fun.

[@Threxer]

Haesteinn Fact: He cannot be stopped, he will always return. He is outside your door right now. Can you hear him?

I can't believe it, Koifish is slowly beating his addiction. I have never been so proud of a public figure before.

[@MrDUneven]

Beating his Hasting addiction by feeding his CK3 addiction.

By abducting your liege, you can always succeed in pressing the demands of your factions. This is because even if he declines and declares war on you, you *mysteriously* already have the opposing war leader in your jail.

On the steam workshop there's a mod that changes nothing other than instantly killing Haestein at the start of your game.

[@vaughncurtis7023]

Best mod ever

[@Middovah]

Please do not inform koifish if I left some swear words in, I didn't have time to check D: you guys have no Idea what he will do to me guys please don't tell h

[@Koifish]

you did.... WHAT?!?!

[@Swedishmafia101MemeCorporation]

Koifish is outside your door

[@Leldy]

Oh God...this is terrifying. There's no sense of continuity... no stability... With Haesteinn gone, what the hell are we going to do? Odin, Freyr, and Thor, I've never been so scared!

[@panpanlepanda6826]

As a Frenchman, I laughed a lot when I saw you trying to pronounce "Eudes" and the other French names in english way with a swedish accent. I want more of this !

[@cityofmagic4370]

Can we add to the challenge that you have to kill at least one of Haesteinn’s family members per play thru?

[@lukeasa4038]

I’ve had fun taking Haestienn as a mentor and converting Eudes to Astru-Norse, then using his claims to create a Viking France.

Wow, no Haesteinn's. I applauded you fish 👏👏👏 And I'm really looking forward to the incredible amount of laughter this series will provide.

[@ConvexSpys]

That's a great idea Koifish I can't wait to watch the videos as they come out.

[@Pentagathusosaurus]

I've never even played crusader kings but I still watch these videos for the koiboi. Less talking, more Haesten

[@Oikolukuhirvi]

I thought watching these videos sober was great but now I'm drunk and they are awesome.

[@s.2652]

We will probably witness koifish going more insane during the series

[@demonkingbadger6689]

Obviously, not being Haesteinn is a burden that leads him to madness.

[@s.2652]

@@demonkingbadger6689 I can't really blame him

[@AlexanderArts]

Awesome video, awesome series! VERY GOOD!

[@FREAK_115]

Koifish at the end of the video: "I have done it! I became the king of France!" The voice inside my head: "Who's gonna Tell him that the Italians took over the Dutch and the Germans?
