== List of achievements left for me to conquer ==


'''This page is completely stolen from [[Achievements]] and is just in use for me to track the achievements I have yet to complete.'''


<!-- It is fine to re-order these achievements based on perceived difficulty as long as a justification is included in the edit summary. -->
The "Notes" column lists helpful short tips/strategies.

The {{icon|ck2|width=21px}} column denotes achievements which can't be completed without the use of DLC mechanics (currently 92 out of 136). Multiple expansion icons mean either can be used. The [[File:Era random button.png|30px]] Random World or the [[File:Era shattered button.png|30px]] Shattered World buttons mean that they are mandatory to fulfill the achievement. For achievements without the icons, the buttons must not be selected.

The Starting conditions column may denote the requirements needed for the player character before the achievement requirements are fulfilled.

The Religion column denotes achievements which can't be completed without the specified religion. (currently 31 out of 136). Multiple religion icons mean either can be used.

The "Ver" column indicates in which version a certain achievement was added. Achievements cannot be earned prior to the version they were added in.

The "DI" column is for difficulty as assessed by wiki editors. VE = Very Easy (Can be achieved through normal play or can be achieved in minutes), E = Easy (Can be achieved easily although might take some time), M = Medium (Can be achieved by most players although some aspects will be difficult), H = Hard (Can be achieved in a full campaign or requires difficult to trigger events), VH = Very Hard (Difficult to achieve and often requires an ahistorical playstyle), I = Insane (Almost unachievable due to the large amount of work and difficult requirements), UC = Uncategorized.

* "High Middle Ages" bookmark as the Duke of Rostov has all the necessary territory. For faster piety, attack Bjarmia Day 0, call your allies and raise your personal levies before distributing your holdings. Also, restart until you have some piety boosting traits, and marry your children for the gold rather than prestige. It is also possible to simply grant a county to a vassal bishop and then grant them independence (doing this 3 times should give you enough piety). 
* Alternatively, start in "Old Gods" as Rurik of Holmgaard, expand and subjugate naturally and then when ready to form the Kingdom use the RoI 'convert to local culture' decision to become Russian. 
* It is also possible to start as a tribal Slavic pagan (Ilmenian, Volhynian, or Severian) in "Charlemagne" or "Old Gods" and form the kingdom ''first'', then convert to a religion that allows you to flip cultures (Christianity is easiest but a reformed pagan faith will also work). Rodislav Slovensky, High Chief of Novgorod in 769, is ideally positioned for this.

To increase your odds of getting a good start to generate, set the number of duchies, kingdoms, and empires to zero.  Also set the number of holding per character to its maximum value.  As a child it is not possible to select the become king ambition, so the kingdom creation cost discount is not available.  So to keep the cost of conquering or usurping manageable, start the game at the latest starting date so all your holdings are highly developed so they generate more money and piety.

Their child will have the outside bloodline while still being part of your dynasty. <br/>
To reduce inbreeding, start with a historic bloodline. Marry a first set of two different bloodlines matrilineally then do it with another set of two bloodlines. Then, marry the two sets together matrilineally. Then, marry a female dynasty member to the resulting son matrilineally. Then marry their daughter to your heir.<br/>
In the 769 start date, there are three bloodlines very close to each other in the British isles: the Blood of Niall 'of the Nine Hostages', Vortigern and Caradog. The Carolingian Blood is closeby in mainland Europe. The Merovingian blood may become extinct early.

To settle a mercenary they must be your friend. There is an event chain for a hired mercenary to become your friend. It fires for you, not the mercenary leader, so hiring multiple mercenaries does not make it fire faster. It won't fire unless the ruler who sent the mercenary away (generally his father) is still alive, and the mercenary is residing in your capital, which happens when he is removed from leading troops. Once he is your friend, dismiss him and then use the "Settle Adventurer" diplo-action on him. In the 769 start as Charlemagne/Karl, wait for Roland to join your court and wait until the event fires for you to become friends. Once you are friends, have him assemble a mercenary company (50 gold) by right-clicking his portrait, and then you can settle him straight away by right-clicking his portrait and awarding him one of your counties (not through "Grant Landed Title", you need to choose the "Settle Mercenary" option).

Note that creation of the Kingdom of Saxony title requires Saxon culture (not Anglo-Saxon). It is a good idea to turn off the Charlemagne events in the game rules so the Karl (or Carloman if Karl is dead) doesn't get a strong claim on Saxony.

Note that you may not get an alert for the English culture event, so keep checking the eligible provinces when the time comes. Note also that the culture events can happen in any province in your entire kingdom, not just the ones you own.
Those who wish to skip pagan or tribal gameplay can start as the Duke of Holland in 867. Haesteinn of Nantes in 867 is another good start, as he can easily take all of Brittany and then prepare an invasion of Western Francia without too much difficulty.

|
| If a councilor will not let you buy a favor, try raising his opinion of you or perhaps changing your position. Your liege, the most expensive one, is more likely to accept when he is low on cash and at war. Buy favors from other powerful vassals and any heirs involved (which is cheapest), and try to get them on the council by killing or waiting out the intransigent ones. As a Companion (Level 2) member of the Assassins, the Intimidate Ruler option becomes available. Try a start with a relatively young ruler with a lot of land to tax, such as the Duke of Aquitaine in 1066. Or, start as an independent king and swear fealty to the HRE or ERE, but beware opinion maluses for different culture and religion. Requires the council be empowered and the Advisors owe you favors as well as the five normal positions.
