It's incredibly, extremely, outrageously ambitious.
It looks very nice whatever it is. Do tell.
I've been wondering, how far have any of you guys spread your dynasty around Europe, either by conquest or convenient marriages? Particularly the latter? (i.e. another branch of your dynasty controls it, but not necessarily your branch)
I got a king with great intrigue and wife with even better intrigue. My spymaster who loves me has 28 intrigue and is in the capitol uncovering plots.
And yet my heirs are dropping dead left and right. I'm down to my last son and daughter and I'm not getting any decent assassination chances on the suspects.
So are the killers of landless heirs always going to be the next in succession or can it be some other a-hole?
Are your heirs in the capitol?
Check to see who hates you and has higher state intrigue and then murder all of them.
Make sure your spymaster is uncovering plots, though. Sometimes I accidentally set him to build a spy network.
Random people like trying to kill your spymaster because it makes killing you and yours a lot easier, and you essentially just did that.
