I like doing this with Jarl Haesteinn (if you have Northern Lords).
1: Declare Varangian Adventure on Italy for the Duchy of Corsica, take the island and march your troops on Turin. Should be an easy and fast war.
2: After that just declare on both Sardinian Counts and you'll have the Kingdom of Sardinia. Move your capital to Cagliari for the silver mine.
I also merged cultures with Royal Court, Stalwart Defenders can come in handy when you lose your special troops after succession and get Holy War'd. Communal can also be nice later for the building cost reduction.
3: Profit. Playing in Sardinia as a Viking is amazing. The Italian coast, Spain, even Jerusalem, all nearby and filled with gold and abductable family members ready to be ransomed. That plus the silver mine in Cagliari will finance a serious force of Men-at-Arms after investing in some economy buildings. Feudal Vikings are scary.
4: Expand. Literally wherever. You have a central staging ground in the Mediterranean and the world is your oyster.
I always go for Cagliari whenever I am in and around the Mediterranean region.
this is the best ck3 content out there, well done. lookign forward for your coverage of the upcoming expansion
OW: "This part of Sardinia" motions to Corsica
Me: Autistic screeching
Just from the benefit of hindsight, that initial succession actually went perfectly. Either way you're losing counties so might as well have it so they can be conquered immediately afterward rather than revoked through tyranny or slow claims.
Love the memes in between! I subbed!
Man, I’ve dived so deep I found Rookie Ottawa… You literally evolved into charmer!
Can only reaffirm what everyone else is writing. Very nice content which is useful and amusing at the same time. Considering myself quite competent at paradox games including ck2 ck3, you have a hand for pointing out some of the finer mechanics. Thanks for that and I look forward for a lot more content
Great content, keep it up :)
This video is inspiring me to get CK3 even though I don't have great history with the grand strategy genre. Will follow this playthrough til the end and see when I can pickup the game. Merry Christmas from Sweden!
@@OttawaWelshman I'll probably pick up the game next time there's a good sale on it. Right now I might pick up Xbox Game Pass, but I'll buy the full game next sale!
@@OttawaWelshman Update: Bought myself 3 months of Game Pass for ~$1 and have completed the tutorial
I really enjoy the content I must say. I can't believe you just started making videos a few months ago. Boy are you going to become a big channel soon, so I better subscribe now to be able to say I was there at the beginning 😁 Keep up the good work!
Great channel. Good videos. Very inbspiging to me as I just got started on my own channel playing CK3. Keep up the good work :)
awesome content !
Wow you pulled a real Tywin imprisoning your dwarf son
great video, just the sound. Why so low
I found your videos like 3 days ago and I can't stop watching. I have CK3 but I have never played it before and it had so much stuff to do that it gets confusing. Seeing your videos and to be honest hearing your voice as well is somehow calming to me. The only thing I wish you change is the audio, if you could make it a little higher would be perfect!. Love from Argentina 🤗🇦🇷
@@OttawaWelshman hahaha yes!!Of course I knew that! I think is the only other community in the world besides Wales (of course) that speaks the language and practice the traditions. I personally have never been there but is well known for the Argentinian people, at least the people I know for sure do!. Most of the people who has Wales origins are located in Rawson wich is the capital of Chubt, a province in the south of the country,in patagonia.
Do you have other social media? I would really like to follow you if do! And sorry for my bad writing...as you can see is not my first language haha.
@@OttawaWelshman hahaha thanks, English is my third language after Spanish and Italian. I will for sure follow you in Twitter then! Stay well!😘😘
Hola, re ramdom encontrar a un argentino en un kc3 video en ingles, saludoos
Nice!
Could you make your mic louder in the following Videos?
Bro i like your way of making ck3 videos and "explain it" so i can watch them with my friend who havent played it before, i just pause the video every once in a while to explain some things to him, so they're the perfect videos ;D
But bro either get a new mic or turn up the sound a little ;)
Really love the vids especially this one just because u explain so calm and clearly. But theres a little problem with the sound volume. I really have to turn my sound all the way up to understand u which turns ads into jump scares xD yeah u turn up the volume of your voice a bit :)
@@OttawaWelshman xD all good yeah watched some other vids. Sry for not checking earlier and keep uo the good work
As a sardinian the pronunciation of "Bobore" actually killed me.LOL
Great content, man! I've learned a lot from watching your videos. I have a question for you. Have you ever elevated yourself in rank by elevating your liege? Said differently, have you ever become king by making your liege emperor?
Personally, I'm attempting a situation like that now. Similar to you in this series, I'm doing a run from Corsica and Sardinia right now as well. I can't create the kingdom because I shortshitedly pledged myself as vassal to the king/queen of Italy and now can't claim a title equal to my liege. I started a faction for independence, but no go on that so far. I roleplay as a loyal family man, so I'm in a race against the clock to become king or split my lands through succession.
Then I got the fun idea of trying to elevate my king/queen to emperor of Italia. They already held almost all of the land needed for the title; all that was missing was the land of the Pope. So seduced by the lure of a crown, I forsook my Catholic faith, suffered excommunication, and claimed the duchy in the name of my king.
Alas, my king is yet a king and no emperor yet. Now, from what I can tell, my king has all of the necessary lands. I skipped ahead to episode 3 of this series to see that the requirements are 42 counties and 1000 gold. I may just need to log back in and start gifting the gold, but that may be out of reach.
Video pretty bueno
I love Sardinia so much because of the mine. But I hate the fact that Tuscany own Corsica and is a vassal to Kingdom of Italy. So I'm pretty much screwed either by staying independent or become Italy's vassal (I'm a gene guy, so my kids marry for good traits not alliance)
Might be a problem on my side, but your video is a lot quieter than others I watched today. I needed to crank my volume up... just as a note. Nice video anyways
I’ve managed to get 50 gold a month with only holding Sardinia and Napoli which both have 50+ development
Same lmao with 23k troops as the king of Sardinia and Mallorca my Napoli isn’t as developed tho I recently just snatched it from spoleto
Give me more memes!! Nice vid
There should be a decision to split Corsica into a separate kingdom title imo
is it me or your mic/voice low in this vid?
Hello my friend, do you use Mods that not effect ironman mode ?
Can someone explain me how to build the mine in cagliari ? I cant do it
I dont think they added it on console if im honest! So if youre on console, that might be it!
Your audio overall is quiet. Which makes CZcams adds scary as hell : /
I tried this play through on console, I don’t know if it’s a bug but I can’t seem to build the mine in Cagliari🤷🏻♂️ everything is the same as the playthrough, unless these special buildings aren’t enabled on console yet? Anyone know anything about this? Thanks
Apparently if you start in 1066 as the count of cagliari the mine is already built. The problem is that the holding in which the mine is located is held by your bishop, so you don't get the full benefits of the mine.
69k views. Nice
Hey there bro GG! I just gotta say youvdont really gotta waste that rebown and presige on disinheritin your son pr what . Just use the dynasty head hook and imprison em and throw him in the dungeons . EZ riddence .
Edit: BRUH move your rally point close to the border you shoudve known this this far by thecamount of pro gamer moves that you pull out sometimes
volume on this vid too low, pls fixit ty
audio is too low increase please
Sardines
i can barely hear ya
Great advice but a good rule to live by is if she is older than 45 you can’t get kids from her
I once had a ruler get pregnant at 47, I've been nervous since, but never see it again. Might have been a bug or unfortunate stacking of fertility, but I'm still shell-shocked to this day between 45-47...
It only goes to 0% chance at 50. Also beautiful increases fertility quite a bit.
I can barely hear ya.
You are quiet. Can't hear you
Well, being not Italian that's not the point. Between SARDIJIA and SARDEGNA there are different letters, but ok, there is the GN- sound which in English you don't have, we can cut you some slack... But reading CORSICA as CORSEE-UH? 😂
I love how you just jump to the key decisions since watching decades go by isn't really content. However...
12:55 "Drank himself to death having tasted the forbidden fruit of incestuous love"
I'm sorry you did what?!
Oh NO, you gave away your holding... noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.....
I came across your youtube channel and I must say you make good CK3 videos! Just the right amount of information, tempo, and memes. I hope to see more videos from you. It would be nice to see how you would go about planning your conquest towards certain achievements, for example. Keep it up! :)
