I tried playing Sengoku and I had no idea what to do; I've played CK2 for hundreds of hours.

Being strong really helps on the whole living a crazy long time thing. Especially if he gets up to brilliant strategist. The two of those traits combined actually more than cancelled out the health lost from being infirm. He eventually died at 84, after being infirm for 15 years and still managing to impregnate his wife three times.
That's 16th and 17th century though, some people could want to play in 10th and 11th century Japan as well.

Supposedly this is an image of what India will look like in-game.
This is interesting, because pretty much all of modern India is included. This means that more of Central Asia is probably going to be on the map, even as far east as present day western Mongolia. From this picture it looks as if Tibet is wasteland.

I think I'm happy about India because maybe the Muslims won't be invincible in the corner without PC intervention.
Did you start as Karen? Im going to have to do that one time

If this is real then:
a)Yay! Sea zones!
b)What is that piece of land in the bottom left? It kind of looks like the coast of Oman, but I really hope they don't compact it that close together.

I meant left
No, as Faravid, 2-province vassal to Karen.
Also, Ironman.
Nothing else they could be. Definitely not Oman!

Could be shadow effects or something? That's not Oman, and even if it was Paradox is not dumb enough to name the sea zone next to it the "Coast of Malabar."

Confirmed: Italy replaced with India
There are invaders from the east and west. Now there simply are invaders from the center.

Crab people?
I'm surprised by the vitriol spewing everywhere on the CK2 forums about realism, as if Crusader Kings II had ever really worried about logistics before. For example
Well, this game got interesting. Managed to conquer Azerbaijan with my second character, then Shia Caliphate declares Holy War for Kingdom of Mesopotamia with its blasted 30k event troops.
My 20k stack got wiped out. To try and dodge the blow I convert. Luckily, my younger brother and heir swiftly demands for both of my remaining kingdoms. I, of course, concede. Realm governed by good Zoroastrian again!
Fittingly losing my "craven" trait, I divorce my sister to make sure no unwelcome heir interferes and start looking for ways to die... Perhaps an accident during Hajj? No dice. Starve to death during Ramadan? No. All right. Imprison half a dozen courtiers and make sure every last vassal, councillor and courtier hates my guts to -100. Also, I become poet, cause why the hell not.
In the meantime, my brother loses Mesopotamian kingdom to another Shia Jihad. Manages to put down other internal revolts though, with the help of cash I send his way. Sunnis take Anatolia from Byzantines but lose Jerusalem to Crusaders.
Five years later... my damn Spymaster has 25 intrigue and minus 100 opinion and he has no decency to poison my wine or something?! Enough is enough. Maybe Oubliette shall speed the process along? Declare war on brother, then immediately surrender.
Damn fool picks up Kinslayer executing me. Has diplomacy rating of 2 left.
