Of note, the Welsh have access to Longbowmen and Tanistry, while the Scottish have both Schiltron and Tanistry. As indicated by this analysis, the 3 most retinue-cap-effective military units in the game, are the Longbowmen, Schiltron and Cataphracts, each of which are available only to specific culture groups.Īdditionally, Tanistry succession is useful for maintaining a large stable empire within dynasty hands, and is again, only available to certain cultural groups (Breton, Irish, Scottish, or Welsh). Aside from opinion modifiers mentioned below, the strongest effect of culture is most evident in the cultural specific buildings and retinue units available to your ruler. At the most superficial level, Culture affects things like names and portraits. In Crusader Kings II all cultures are created MOSTLY equal. Culture mismatch can hurt on both on the provincial level and inter-character relations.
I'll go into what culture does and how you can use it to your advantage.Ĭulture is an abstract representation of the ethnicity and traditions of the peasantry, and whom nobles identify with. Every culture belongs to a culture group, and is closer to other cultures in the same groups than cultures outside it. Unlike religion, culture has only a minor effect upon the peasantry, most of the effect is instead on your vassals. Long term goals should be to boost development in your Domain as high as possible, and avoid converting the culture of poor counties if you can avoid it.As culture in Crusader Kings II is in many ways similar to religion, it seems a fitting topic to follow up the installment on religion. Increasing the amount gained each month is another story, and province development is a much slower process so there's not much you can do for that over the short term. Because it's based on the odds, the Scientific perk can easily shave 4-5 years off an estimated date, so it's something well worth getting, even at very low learning. With a high learning skill and a single point in the Learning Lifestyle (spent on the Scientific perk which adds +35% to Fascination) you can easily hit a high percentage. It's easy to get a good percentage from Fascination alone.
These long waits, even with the Fascination makes increasing the speed important. Pretty much the only Innovations you'll get in the short-term are the ones you take as Fascinations, with the example above taking an estimated 13 years to complete with it, and 200 years without.
