Medieval 2 should i become a vassal

Even reducing the tax of the settlement where the King rules can produce quite good results. Though I personally do not much recommend it if you are using version 1. Using Assassins have a harmful effect on your Kings chivalry as it gains you dread. I have seen people who think successful assassination do not cause the king to gain dread, but this is not at all true.

Successful assassinations too reduce the chivalry of the King at about -1 chivalry for every 2 successful assassinations or sometimes even for 1 successful assassination. So to make your King chivalrous forgoing your assassins is vital. To make other faction your vassal is a diplomatic dealing for that you obviously should have good diplomats.

Diplomats with higher influence are bound to extremely useful particularly to negotiate a client kingdom agreement. Once, I was playing as England and was running out of turns- I needed 15 territories in 6 turns, which is quite a difficult task. Then I had a high ranking diplomat I sent him to negotiate vassalage with Spain which had around 7 settlements and quite formidable power.

Still they agreed to become my vassal for a meager 15, florins. Thus that diplomat did saved the day. I hope now it is as clear as a crystal how good diplomats can be a treasure when coming to vassalage negotiation. To train a good diplomat is a very difficult task and your only agent who can enter negotiation other than the diplomats are princesses who are even more difficult to train. Further more there is no guilds for diplomats in the game that is quiet natural when relating to the medieval times history.

There is actually no sure shot way to get a great diplomat, in this aspect luck surely plays a huge role. One way to train a good diplomat while playing a catholic faction is to sent a diplomat to the papal states. I recommend papal states because keeping a good relation with the Pope has many other benefits more than acting as a practice ground for your diplomat. At first do not put forward a deal, just gift the Pope with florins do that for a few turns provided you can meet the cost.

I particularly mention florins because every gift of florins will improve the relation between the factions to the next level. Not forever, but long enough. Otherwise, yes, they will betray you. Answered 1 year ago. Realm divide is meant to simulate the idea that other clans have deemed you too powerful and must be crushed even though other clans can grow just as powerful if not more.

Taking Kyoto is like declaring authority over other clans to submit, which none will, so civil war. If a faction you are fighting becomes a vassal in the middle of your war, you will be given a dialogue choice between making peace with the vassal or declaring war also on their new masters. The game considers vassalage to be a treaty that lasts forever and does not expire, as with all treaties. Playing as England in my current campaign running SS6. Didn't cost me a dime, I merely had to taken them down to their last 2 provinces with enough forces standing at their doorstep for them to accept it.
