Yes, in Europe we have our own species of bisons called "zubr". There were plenty of them in medieval time. Also, at this time wild cow still was numerous.

[@capadociaash8003]

More like wild cows existed at all

[@liveforever141]

European bison is called "Stumbras' in Lithuanian, and "wild cow" are called "Tauras" in Lithuanian, and Aurochs in English.

27:43 Okay I get adding Pursuit of Power or Warmonger instead of Sanctity of Nature, that Tenet is severely underpowered and doesn't really do a good job of mechanically reflecting it's fluff, but Kudikis Lemti is literally the unique Tenet of Vidilism, it feels kinda against the spirit of the video to replace it at all, particularly with something like Mendicant Preachers.

Syphilis first appeared in 1496 in French soldiers in Southern Italy, before any European had reached the Andes where llamas are native to, in ck3 the lover's pox likely refers to herpes and in older versions the now removed great pox likely refered to syphilis

[@schad1738]

count on the french and italians to be so horny they discover a new disease 😭

[@bencollier3758]

And idea why the Great Pox was removed?

[@hopelesaromantic]

@bencollier3758 because the first evidence of syphilis is after 1453, the end of the game, and so it inclusion was anachronistic

[@Alister222222]

Amazing coincidence that this is nearly the same playthough I am doing! I decided I'd form Livonia since it's one of the unique decisions I've never done, so I was hard-out Vidilist. By the time I got around to reforming the faith, my character was the sole surviving male of my dynasty after multiple black deaths (I swear they need to nerf how often it appears on 'normal' plague frequency), and he was sadistic and lustful (not at all the heir I would have wanted). So naturally it was Carnal Exaltation with Deviancy considered virtuous. One tip I found was that if you have access to the special archers in the region, they are extremely OP in taiga and forest. If you can bait enemies into attacking you in taiga you have a *huge* advantage if you stack up on them. My Latgalian culture had the option to recruit a forest commander, which if they have enough prowess to have an accolade allows them to have the Archer trait, letting you stack insane amounts of archers. This allows you to get an archer accolade super early and very easily.

[@Donerci_Pikacu_Usta]

I still find it very odd how little eu4 and ck3 have when it comes to Baltic content. Would be nice to see events surrounding the first king of the Balts (Mindaugas irl for us), the mythical founding of cities like Vilnius, legendary conquerers like Algirdas, etc. The current thing about only having 1 subjugation per lifetime is really goofy considering Mindaugas irl did that to multiple tribes during his reign

[@johnfraire6931]

Can't you get a different subjugate cb through the diplomacy tree, or is that also once per lifetime?

13:05 Those woods were full of wisents (Polish "żubr"), also known as European wood bison. There are not American bison, which are commonly referred as just bison (e.g. in Polish "bizon" refers only to American bison, while "żubr" refers only to European wood bison). While there are some American bison living in woods, American bison are mostly plains animals living in large herds. While wisents are exclusively living in forest and live in way smaller groups. Hence wisents are a little bit smaller and more stealthier than American bison. Although I have no idea which one is easier to hunt - American bison in open plains or wisents in deep woods. In modern day most of wisents live in deep woods of Polish-Belarusian borderland.

Reminds me, of a time where I played Ck2 as Lithuania in 769, as Romuva is pretty op, I managed to form the kingdom as my first character that had stewardship and reformed the faith on my second character, I'm on my third or fourth character and recently got a genius child

[@sebastianflueras]

You're doing it wrong mate. Start as a viking in 867, varangian adventure to Curonia, take over Aalborg and Braslau, convert to vidilism, become Defender of Dievas, you now control 3 holy sites, reform vidilism to and add necessary tenets for holy wars, get Divine Blood and start spreading the true faith, you should have all this before 910 :)) you can get Livonia and Latgaliand dutchies and Proclaim Terra Mariana for a sweet title and a kingdom. You can hybridize with latgalina culture and get Hirds tradition and forest wardens, which means you now have huscarls and metsanviertja archers aka you are a boss as long as you fight in woodlands (aka the whole of the baltic empire...see where I'm going?)

Only for the fucking Crusades to land while I was trying to take Egypt. I lost Israel, I lost my Holy war Casus Beli and instead of waiting to build up again I tried to take Israel back while I still had mercenary troops and got demolished, now I don’t even have my claim to the kingdom… I had Israel for all of 5 minutes.. I can never look at a Holy War the same way again lol I’ll try fix it again but I was absolutely devastated at the time. Proper crushed haha

[@LunarRegicide]

In CK3, the quality of troop is dependent on the ratio of Men At Arms to normal levies. If you have way more levies than special troops, your quality will drop. That an the prowess skill of the knights in the army is calculated, so if you have 8 knights but their prowess is like 5 or lower, they'll tank your quality too.
