Is a good rule of thumb, as a king, you dont want duchy’s unless you own most of the counties in a duchy? Because if you are a duchy, you get rightful liege but then they hate you because they want the duchy?

Great video. Just a cautionary note: make sure the prisoners you ransom aren't contributing to war score by clicking on the war icon and looking for the handcuffs. If they are part of your war score, make sure you will be able to keep winning the war with future battles and sieges / prisoners, or that you're okay with losing that war score % up on their release.

You forgot something about temples. They are much better than cities or castles (only if the castle is not controlled by yourself),if you control the county. Cities always give you 20% tax, castles in your county 10% (if they are controlled by a vassal), and temples 50% if the bishop has a good opinion. The best way to get a lot of income is controlling all counties in a duchy and building temples. The other good thing about temples is that if they are controlled by a vassal you get 12,5% of their temple income as their liege if the opinion to your bishop is good regardless of the feudal contract

Another important thing to remember is that if a county's development is higher than it's neighbor county's development, then it increases it by 0.1 dev growth per month for every 1 development higher it is. Collect taxes vs. increase development is basically short term boost vs. long term growth. It is actually more beneficial over the long run to just have your steward sitting in your capital increasing development permanently since when it increases by one dev, it increases dev growth by 0.1 per month in all neighboring counties and over the centuries it'll spread to your entire domain. Development also has the added bonus of helping tech growth!

It depends a lot on the skills of your steward and the size of your realm. If your realm is small and/or have a shit steward, it's best to just collect taxes and prepare to expand.

The combo of the skill from the intrigue skill tree that lets you fabricate hooks with the skill from the stewardship tree that lets you demand payment for them is incredibly powerful, especially if you have a good intrigue stat to easily fabricate those hooks. With another skill you can fabricate two hooks at the same time, allowing you to have two hooks cooking at all times. Demanding payment for the hooks gets you about 100 gold a pop. You just need to wait until your schemes to fabricate the hooks let you create them without paying a bunch of gold or more prestige than you want to spend, etc.
@alphaspartan3 жыл бұрын
Something to keep in mind, while loot from sieged holdings and captives can certainly be valuable targets for gold, also keep in mind that every month that your armies are raised you have to pay them a monthly wage. If you have a huge army of say 14,000 troops including 5 regiments of Men at Arms this can get very very expensive and negate any loot you'd gain from pillaging. To offset this, you can "raise local armies" in a holding and you will raise only the local levies and all your knights and MaA's, making the maintenance cost less. You can further decrease this amount by splitting the army and rearranging until you get to a low enough number that's still bigger than your enemy but costs whatever maintenance you're comfortable paying per month. When you have 5+ regiments of MaA's, you can significantly reduce their upkeep cost by using the Marshal's 2nd ability which trains commanders. Much better option than the 1st one that boosts levy size, as your levies are level 1 while your MaA's and knights are much more valuable for fighting wars. Also for wealth, once you hold several kingdoms and are approaching empire status or are an emperor, stuff like golden obligations becomes less important as you usually get like 50 gold per hook but you'll be making 32+ gold per month just from your domain and taxes on your vassals. At these higher tier realms you want to focus on stewardship to increase the number of domains you hold and the amount in taxes they pay, allowing you to build buildings which further snowballs your income.

Thank you! I just had a succession, and went from +12 gold a month to 0.4, so I couldn't much do anything. Two major tips I got from you was to slow-play it after a succession, since I'm going from a long to a short reign. I'll naturally build back my respect (and hence my taxation) in a few years. But also I never paid attention to the whole rightful liege thing. Almost all my vassals did not consider me their rightful liege, because I didn't control the kingdoms they were in, because I haven't been creating kingdom titles. So I spent a few months doing ransoms, assisting in wars, prioritizing any events that give me/don't cost me gold, and saved up enough to create a kingdom title. My income tripled from 1.1 to 3.4. In like six months I could afford another kingdom creation, and my income jumped to 11.6. I still have two more kingdoms I can declare. There are no factions against me. Control is good and religion is almost all mine. So just creating those kingdoms to make sure I'm the rightful liege completely changed my game. Also I realized my wife's top skill was 3 patronage, so I married a woman with 22 stewardship and put her on that. -- Also, dang Carpathia is in beast mode. They have much of eastern Europe and western Russia up to almost like Uzbekistan. I was wondering why the game suggested I could offer Carpathia a hostage. Was thinking why are they talking about Carpathia? I don't even have Baghdad or Trebizond. Then saw a huge Carpathian Empire. I like the randomness in this game. It's not hard-wired for the same empires to always form. Any random faction can sometimes go nuts, and I like that other empires grow as you do, so you can expand to a point, but eventually tend to get large empires all around you. Keeps it challenging. ... Figures. Started expanding again. My king died, and four wars were declared against me. Just when I begin to think I've gotten the sense of this game, it humbles me.

I think its very important to underscore just how long buildings take to pay back. Say a market takes 150 gold & 3yrs to build and gives +.5gold/month plus other bonuses we won't be considering. 150gold / .5gold/month = 300months = 25years after completion aka 28yrs after clicking the button it finally payed itself off. Now you may want other bonuses like dev growth speed or levy size which can be used to persue other income sources (deving up your lands so they give more tech growth and money/levy size or waging wars for more land) but that makes the math more complicated than the basics of the direct modifier and cost which can be done for all buildings that give direct income.

How do you decide between building a city vs temple vs castle holding? Is it the same as in CKII? Where basically it was always build cities+tradeports in coastal provinces, and inland build enough castles to have an army and then build only cities

@alexwillis23813 жыл бұрын
In theory, the most efficient thing to do is build temples everywhere and just make sure your court chaplain always has +50 opinion of you. In practice, I just go with a mix for aesthetic reasons. Maybe a bit more temples than cities. If you plan to stay small for most of the game, it would be smart to build castles in your capital county to directly control. If you’re expanding, you’ll want those domain slots for counties.

I find the best way to make money is having high stewardship. As long as you can educate your heir for high stewardship, and have a steward with high stewardship with a wife with high stewardship, you'll be making bank. I had like 7 castles, and focused on building at least 2 money making buildings in all my castles. I was making like 30 gold per month while having 3.2k men at arms raised, and 6k levies. within the first 20 years as i became Duke of Mercia. I was making like 6-8 gold a month on the 2 previous characters till I randomly got wiped out by the bubonic plague, and ended up playing as a 14 year old cousin with high stewardship. It was just snowballing into wealth after that.

Ask and you shall receive! Thanks for making this video! Overall I think my biggest issue with keeping my wealth up is not staying at max domain holdings. As I expanded I was giving away counties by granting a lot of duke-level titles. By doing that I was hurting my income a lot.

@bmarsh22825 ай бұрын
I see this is 3yrs old so I hope by now someone has already pointed this out but, (and I really love your videos btw, super detailed and best I’ve found for CK3) I’ve seen a couple of your videos now that you have described the “not rightful liege” penalty of x0.75 as “taking a 75% hit” or “only getting 25%”. But, what that actually means is the tax/levy income is *multiplied* by 0.75. Imagine your income is just straight up 1. Add the multiplier of 0.75 (or “times/multiply it by” 0.75) and you’ll see it is in fact 75% (or 0.75 out of the 1) that you are getting. I by no means intend to be condescending by this so please don’t read it that way. I teach middle school math so explaining it this way is in my nature. 😅

There are two things that you can do to increase amount of domains under ypur direct rule: 1. False claim made by the bishop - better do it against some small independent duchy or kingdom that has no allies and who has a smaller army. Such kingdoms might appear when someone dies and his/her children inherit small part of their belongings. 2. You can also use hooks or just a good vassal opinion to demand their titles.

One incredibly useful tip that I do not think was mentioned in the video is to build multiple castle holdings in your capital county (at least at the start). If you for example hold the county of Paris, you can have up to 4 castle holdings in your direct control where you receive 100% of the taxes and levies. You will also get any modifiers that your capital county may have onto your holdings. What I like about this is that you will ALWAYS have multiple holdings guaranteed. There won't be a succession where you find yourself down to 1 holding. If you want to expand to more provinces and you find yourself always at max holdings, then just give the castle title to someone and take it back in the future if needed. By doing this you may find yourself as a simple count with 1 single county title, but rivaling major powers in gold income and army.

Scroll around to your own and your vassals counties when selecting where you want to raise development with your steward, it tells u how long it will take to raise and it changes based on current level of control and the neighbors lvl of development. You would want to raise your vassals development if his county only takes 3 months and yours takes 5 years because urs is so much higher, which is the case more than not.

Religion with temporal head and communion you get like 400 gold per month give or take and YES you need to have lay clergy so you might net 50 max less gold per month, but as your relm become biger yes you lose more from spirutual vassals but you get more from indulgences.

One other tip for making a small amount of money in a pinch. If you have a Queen with a meaningful stewardship stat you can change her focus to manage just that ability. It will give you a boost to your own stewardship which raises your tax income by a small amount.

No mention of Extort Subjects and Sell Title? Extorting subjects gives 12 months worth of income and 20 dread. Selling title gives 6 - 18 months worth of income plus a weak hook at times. Both have a cooldown of 2 years and when combined doubles your gold income (before expenses).
