so currently queued up to lose literally everything except the Imperial title and my capital in Palermo really not sure what to do I could murder my infant and just deal with the kinslayer + murderer + tyrant penalties but that only staves off the problem for one generation

it is some Real Bullshit that Chinese armies in CK2 don't suffer from attrition penalties they've got a 170k stack I can raise ~600k but I try to concentrate enough to kill that fucker they all just die and this is a major problem when they're winning just by steppe seiges

well I took the entirety of India in a single Invasion CB was surprisingly tough--it took long enough to siege everything that the AI just started spawning and teleporting 10k stacks all over(!!!!) guess I have a few holdings to distribute to hellenic romans nowpic.twitter.com/6dipYjWySU

and then I break free from fucking China next summer I moved all ~170k of my retinue up to the Jiquan passage to handle the 172k Western Protectorate doomstack that spawns sadly spread out because attrition in Mongolia is murder supply limit rules errything around mepic.twitter.com/U8P5CqzziO

initial disposition of troops note that I had slightly more troops than china (plus another 100k or so that I could raise on the spot from vassals once the territory cleared up) but of course the supply penalty was cripplingpic.twitter.com/fOhnTTPOAJ

Really fond of this ruler. I usually go Hermetic for tech early game but he's currently running the Hellenic warrior lodge and my god it shows when he's leading a retinue he can usually smash armies 2x the size of his no problem fortunately that's not an issue because 1M men!pic.twitter.com/vlJqCODlLH
