If you do this as a Christian you get the nickname “scourge of the Baltic’s” I think
Yep
@@PugnaciousProductions ok nice
@@PugnaciousProductions anus
Oui oui
Actually it is any non vidlist religion
This is my favorite start. If you hybridize the Latgalian + Estonian cultures you'd also get the Varangian conquest CB as an option for members of your culture.
But it's no use after you become a king

That is by far the furthest I’ve seen the Byzantines spread and and that’s saying something because they usually barely take land beyond their initial borders. I did notice that you were just to the west of a pretty large Ruthenian kingdom that clearly got absorbed by Byzantium.
Yeah it was a nice surprise to see them expand, as lately it just seems like they don't do anything for 100 years then just dissolve
It looks like at 10:18 your liege became an Orthodox Christian so it's possible other surrounding rulers to your east and southeast might've converted as well to the point where the Byzantines just absorbed them through marriage/inheritance or conquest (I looked back at the video and it looks like Ruthenia was doing great up until about 1164 because by 1171 it was already absorbed by the Byzantines)
"thats actually one of my favorite map colors" blocks the country with a link
Must be the toughest run yet, other formable nations were larger but this time it seemed the game was going out of its way to make sure you couldn't win, great job pulling it off!
Great montage at 12 mins though!
Yeah! i like it when that happens though, just throws curve balls at you!
And thankyou! :)
The game intentionally makes life a libing hell. Like, no matter where you play, your neighbours will always make alliances with either France, the HRE or the Byzantines, even if theyre some tiny counts.
Also counts can randomly summon gold to form duchies and your family members will always become rackish one eyed drunkards
Don't you just love it when you're fighting some dude in bumfuck nowhere and he suddenly summons an army that rivals your size from some alternate dimension?
Pope summoning 5million mercenaries army against your foolish 1k levy stack attack
It took me several game saves to get the Kingdom of Livonia, starting as Prussia, and then forming the Baltic Empire. Definitely one of the hardest games I've played.
Yeah it surprised me how difficult it was! mainly because of estonia haha
You're my favorite CK3 player, I'd love to see you play the ck3 mod that let's you play battles in bannerlord! Or just bannerlord, my favorite youtuber with my favorite game would be tight! ❤
Thankyou very much! I've been meaning to try the Crusader Blade mod again! and doing more bannerlord videos in general!
Love these videos for making me realize how many formable nations I'm missing lol
That automatically changing to feudal has to be new-ish, that would have killed my enthusiasm to continue this run.
Wait... you had conquest casus bellis when you became independent, but you still spent money on duchy claims while at wat instead of getting more prestige through smaller wars and eventually taking the last bits you want with a duchy conquest or two
oh damn yeah! good point, i just completely forgot about that lmao
Great vid, always enjoy it when its not an easy breeze
Nice one :D
How about doing the almost impossible? Play as petty king Aella and conquer the vikings xD
I converted to Catholicism and used the Bank of Rome to unite the Baltics as a non-German Prussia. My best campaign yet. The only other one that's close is my 876 Belgium campaign.
Curonians actually raided Scandinavians at the Viking age. Curonians and some Estonian tribes came together and burned down Swedish capital city, Swede vikings built over Stockholm over the ruins.
And fun Fact, Baltic tribes were the last Pagans of Europe, they were fierce fighters and close to nature, and they were fighting till the end against other religions like christianity.
"Look at that color! That's my favorite color!"
He says as a suggested video card blocks the entire nation.
😂 you can see it for about 2 seconds
Balts? Ok.
In next video we must reunite Slavs xD
I want to do that, although the region for the decision is MASSIVE, but I want to do every formable nation so it must be done
@@SnapStrategy It sure is massive task. I pulled it off a few times before. I recommend starting at 867 so you can steadily consolidate the region.
Nice campaign. Tho I gotta ask, is the new channel still planned to go online sometime in the future?
Lore of Attempting to UNITE THE BALTICS was PAINFUL in Crusader Kings 3 momentum 100
I united Lithuania under the Prussians Vidilist Kingdom but was left at an empasse surrounded by Catholic leaders and large kingdoms that were hard to invade, fun region though.
The game woke up and chose violence
always good to see you torture yourself a bit in this game
Uniting baltics is actually to ez
My favourite youtube wit d bell on
Thankyou !!
The Estonians are not baltic by heritage. They are Finnic!
As are Livonians. The germanic crusaders were the ones to call the whole of the Baltics Livonia (or just Latvia+Estonia), even though Livonians were a coastal minority at the time. It's like founding the kingdom of Sorbia in the territory of modern Germany. Makes absolutely no sense and is honestly kinda offensive to Baltic people.
Unite the SLAAAAVS! and start as Kyiv plz (or Konugardr if you please)
for me the byzantines always blob into the north, I think it has something to do with the fact that the northerners are orthodox
1066 is such a cursed starting date. There's so much BS happening everywhere I don't even bother starting on that date. 867 is the only date I start any playthrough on.
Great video
Thankyou!
So much debt, so little raiding
Hey man. Would you tr creating the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth? That would be something I'd like to see
Nice. love all you vids. keep em coming.
Bro said that was his favourite color and still used another for his thumbnail
What a cursed playthrough lol
Snap!! This is my phone account, my Mikey Louis is PC. Just wanted to let you know, keep up the vids!
can confirm
I think you forgot that you still kept vidilist unreformed because you could just use conquest CB and you are also able to raid even if you are feudal, so you didn't really need to spend all that money buying claims
Try play as sweden?
I play as latgalians and always get beaten by Lithuanians 😭🙏
22:00 Well its like they say right? Russia is the Third Rome lol
Man the AI is really after the player
As an estonian myself, this region in CK3 is kind of wrong. Current day estonians are related to livonians, in fact, phrases like ''Estonia'' and ''estonians'' are tad bit newer development in the region here. During middle ages this region was known as Livonia and such a thing as Estonia didnt excist!
There are still some people left who identify themselves as ''livonians'' and their language sounds like a mix between modern day finnish and estonian allthough, there are not many native speakers remaining!
How ANYTHING may be possibly painful in CKIII? The game is so easy that there is nothing to do in one generation of your sim rulers. In 100 years you may fight half the map simultaneously, what ever start you have chosen. I mean WTF?
Fun but painful run, good job! Would have been easier if you had just murdered his wife, that breaks the alliance to and the stress might have killed him too.
Livonians are Finno-Ugric, not Baltic, and Livonia would theoretically be the state of Livonians. I don't know why Paradox can't understand this. It's like Polish people, a slavic ethnicity, creating the kingdom of Germany, a kingdom whose name and primary population stems from a germanic ethnic group.
Why would you give away land within your personally held duchy? Bruh...
Just realized I wasn’t subbed. Corrected that 😅
Bruh your early games are so unlucky 😂 getting raided, invaded or children dying at early age or getting terrible traits , these things rarely happens to me 😂😂
3 different games. I got like 10 yrs in and my character got bucked off a horse and became incapable. That shit sucks so much 😭😭😭
@@carlostrujillo9971 bruh, go to a church or something 💀
(No Estonians allowed)
World conquest as a Character with negative stats, starting as a vassal of theStrongest empire in the bookmark ( 867 or 1066 ). Time-limit of 150 years
That is completely impossible
@@donpollo3154 Definitely not impossible
Not difficult at all the real challenge is Uniting the Slavs
