Yeah, going to take a look to see if and how to implement some core things from Memento Mori quickly. They really did a number on the game mechanics and files btw. Expect mayor mods to at least take a week or two.

I got fucked as everyone except for the Norse. Granted, I chose some strategically poor characters.
Gonna try the Suomi out when I get home from work today.

Goddamn, instead of implementing a few fun events concerning raiding damaging and destroying buildings they have seemed to hardcode that. So, no easy move to make buildings also get destroyed in sieges. Le sigh.

Sounds about right.

Keep an eye out for the Game of Thrones mod. They're adding lots of stuff for the Ironborn and Wildlings. Which should make the north a much more interesting place.

I've been killing my way across the North for some thirty years no, no issues yet. Rurik has been assassinated Kennedy style, and his other son was assassinated too, which has left me to build the foundations of an empire with impunity.
Glorious vikings!

Only one so far. Certain provinces and characters load as "noculture", however this may be caused by the change in certain older dlcs. They did some changes to the portrait dlcs that required you to download a new version of them. Since I may or may not have acquired the cosmetic dlcs more or less legally I loaded the game with out having done that, starting the game again with them deactivated it worked just fine. Other wise everything seems to be working, though I've only played for about 2 hours.
How are you guys finding the new map? Anyone playing a Catholic county on it?
If you're Zoroastrian, Saffarids are a pain in the ass. Also, I'm disappointed you can't raid same religious groups (I tried doing it with Bolghars against Cumans).

First game, easy relaxed one with Rurik, executed every enemy and traitor on the way to the Kingdom of Rus. Not exactly sure why but can't create any ships despite holding coastal provinces, going to see if looting all the way down the coast to Germany will work.

Well.
Rurik I lived until 74, the last ten years stressed and infirm yet leading armies in the field of battle without blinking an eye. He created the Kingdom of Rus (under its Pagan name) and raided as far as Hamburg, and even arranged Gavelkind fairly well; the second son gets the hinterland duchy of Yaroslavl, the young third the duchy of Tver nearby, and the old Rurik had given away most of his demesne to avoid them being split to the children. Now the eldest Saemundr, who was born Quick and educated superbly by Rurik, is King. But spending his adult life on the Estonian coast he had developed a Greedy and Wroth disposition. Now 33, he finds that literally all of his vassals hate him, and the Kingdom is bursting at the seams...

The situation is so dire for Zoroastrians, that when I started my game as one, I had a free army of 5K

Slavic pagans are too easy to play. Subjugation CB is way too strong for Russia due to kingdom sizes. Ruthenia and Rus is huge and there are fucking lot of 2-3 province rulers, which means you can steamroll over them almost non-stop. The only problem so far, is early income, but you can always go on a lootfest.
wait for at least one patch to play it Niggas... Are Rorik and his merry band Wariags here?
