Played as Sweden and built up my Kingdom becomming allied with Saxony in the Process from a Marriage Tie.
Get asked to help Saxony from being Subjugated by King Karl of West Francia, do so and kick Karl's ass.
Turn around and start a war with Karl to make him into a Tributary, win the war cause Karl is still licking his wounds.
Karl is now paying me 46 gold a month and I have his 3 daughters in my dungeon.
Execute his oldest daughter because she complained about her cell, forced another daughter to become my concubine and decided to tutor the last daughter because she was 7 and needed to learn that being of Norse Culture and the Germanic Faith was best for her.
Youngest daughter becomes my new wife when she turns 16 and my previous wife dies from falling off a balcony (Gravity can be a cruel misstress.) and bares me a Son.
Our son becomes Karl's Heir for his sons had "accidents".
Karl dies from sickness, Son becomes King of now France.
Son dies from his carriage falling off the road and France joins the newly formed Swedish Empire.
10/10 would assassinate myself to the top again.
