If I want stay in Britain and wait to 1100 to press Formalize the Danelaw decision should I conquer asatru holy sites in Scandinavia for reformation or I can just stay unreformed? Also , if I wouldn’t conquer England for myself, it’s still possible to be crusades? Even if I’m not controlling holy site like Kent?
First one has better protection stats and for some strange reason is more light than second , but looks a bit blunt while the second looks more noble and I can’t decide what better for looks considering all other armor pieces options
What weapon choice most fit sturgian aesthetics? Since warsails and birds as new faction they become less Viking and more Rus/Slavic, so i’m confused what should I buy or craft. I was farming gold by smithing and now my budget is ~2 million denars. I used mostly druzhyna heavy lance on horseback with shield and heavy javelins, for empty slot it’s better to pic twohanded like axe or one handed? For two handed sturgians have maces and axes (which are worse than nords twohanded axes) and for one handed it’s lame short axes and swords. So I was thinking about crafting something like one handed mace which used the boyars of Kyivan Rus as their prototypes or still focused on twohanded axes as option if I’m dismounted.
For armor I was really exhausted by collecting all tier 6 parts of armor set but I still haven’t find that heavy mail which are on heavy spearsmen and elite boyar heavy cavarly. Also it’s look like the Raganvand armor and helmet are unique because I never seen that items on units in in-game Encyclopedia
Hi everyone,
I am making a new post because my situation is getting worse and PIA support has been stalling me since Tuesday, August 4th. I need urgent advice from the community and action from an official rep.
I tried to renew my subscription through the app, which redirected me to the website. The system processed my payment and deducted money from my card without asking me to enter an email or log in. It generated a "ghost account" to which I have zero access or credentials. My old profile remains deactivated.
I contacted live chat immediately. I provided them with:
Since August 4th, live chat agents keep telling me that the Billing Team is "reviewing" it. They refuse to give a clear timeframe, and some even claimed it could take up to a month just to find the transaction and issue a refund. An official rep here asked for my Ticket ID days ago but then went completely silent.
I am well within the 30-day money-back guarantee, but since I cannot log in, I cannot disable auto-renewal.
In my previous post, an official PIA rep replied and asked me to DM them. I did so immediately and provided my Ticket ID, but they have gone completely silent and haven't responded
Has anyone dealt with a "ghost account" generated by their billing system? How long did it take to fix?
Should I stop waiting and just block my credit card / initiate a chargeback through my bank right now? I am terrified of being charged again next month.
I am from city of Zaporizhia and for me this kingdom title absolutely ridiculous. First - There was no such phenomenon as Zaporizhian cossaxks in early medieval age, first mention of them was in 16 century. Second - capital is not even located in historical place of island Khortytsia, for some strange reason it’s in Odessa region (Which has Ottoman Turkish name Yedisan). The decision of creation of Cossack state create cossaxk culture with turkic origin (!!!) and only one requirement of historical region there is Red Levadia (Modern Zaporizia/Kherson region) with capital in Tana (Don Valley). I don’t understand if they want to divide huge chunk of southern Ukraine in some another kingdom why don’t name it something more historical like kingdom of Scythia? This name was used even by ottomans to this territories, the second son of Bohdan Khmelnytskyi Yurii get from Ottoman Sultan ceremonial title as Prince of Scythia . But Zaporizhia? seriously?
In my last thread I ask what to do as Avar adventurer after Magyar conquering of Pannonia. After reading some comments I did next. As adventurer I used kingdom tier invasion to Wallachia which was created after death of Bulgarian king Boris and inheritated by one of his sons. After conquering it I realize that primarly heir of Bulgaria is a conqueror and I decided to attack him first to avoid further holy wars and take Bulgaria and moved my capital to Preslav where is tengri holy site. After that I get court event spawned of cheap reformation without requirement of holding 3 holy sites so I reformed the faith quickly ( don’t look at similar to orthodoxy color I didn’t notice it). Then as second ruler I did a holy war for Hungary and and created Carpathia and converted all that territories to tengrism. Now my new Avar Empire locked between Catholic West Slavia and Bavaria from North and West, Byzantium from South, and Ashari Khazars from East. Is there any strategy to survive ?
Hi everyone,
I'm having a serious issue with PIA support and need some advice or help from an official rep if they are browsing this sub.
Here is the backstory: I used PIA earlier this year, at the beginning of 2026. After a couple of months, I stopped using the service. Just recently, I decided to return to it and renew my access.
When I clicked inside the app, it redirected me to the main website page. I accidentally purchased a 1-month subscription, thinking I was logging into my profile. However, the payment went through without me entering any email address or creating/logging into an account. It seems a ghost account was generated by the system, and I have absolutely no credentials or access to it.
My old profile still shows as deactivated, but the money was deducted from my card.
I contacted live chat support immediately. I provided a screenshot of my bank transaction. The agent only asked for the last 4 digits of my credit card and told me that the request was forwarded to the Billing Team because they couldn't track down which automated account this payment belongs to.
It has been over 48 hours now. Every time I join the live chat, the agents keep stalling and telling me there is no update from the Billing Team yet.
I am eligible for the 30-day money-back guarantee, but more importantly, I am terrified that PIA will auto-renew and keep charging my card every month since I cannot log in to cancel the subscription myself.
Has anyone faced this before? How long does the Billing Team usually take to map a transaction to a card?
I started a Serbia run planning to form a custom Yugoslavia, but by the time I was finally stable I ended up surrounded by three empires. There's basically no way to win an offensive war against any of them, so now I'm just bored and spending my time helping allies in their wars while stacking defensive buildings in case the HRE, Byzantium, or Carpathia decide to invade. At this point I'm just hoping to hold them to a white peace.
Also, is there any way to merge the de jure lands of Croatia and Serbia without creating an empire? I'm getting really tired of constantly reconquering them, especially since I was the one who upgraded those castles to level 10. Even with a full stack of onagers, sieging my own former holdings takes years.
Even that i’m a conqueror there is too much enemies in numbers, in fact it’s 24k instead of 16, and capital of leader is far away from me. Is there any strategy for defeating them? Should I wait of them attacking me on my territories first, attack small members of confederation before domination event or increase number of my army ?
My million attempt to play as last Uyghur khaganate adventurer of Ediaz dybasty who start at Kyrgyz khaganate and it’s literally bullshit. He already 58 with random traits and education lvl and 35 y.o heir son who is always gay. So I can’t find ANY contracts in steppe areas that is not criminal, I body just give me them and if I ask inside holding nothing new appear on map, I just move across whole steppe to find ANY contracts and still it doesn’t appear. Also there is no in taverns young fertile female characters that can be wives of my gay heir, it’s only one 31 y.o at starting location which is comely and still she doesn’t give a birth. What the point of all this? Why make some old fart which even can’t find a job and collect army as adventurer, give him claim of non exist empire of Uyghur khaganate , and make his son gay without any options to find a female characters snd literally without any quests? What the point of all this?

In 867 one of the adventures has claimant on this empire title but empire haven’t any de-jure territory. It’s possible to restore it or this just some flavour bullshit ?

What to chose in this build? One handed, twohanded or polearm?

Playing as custom Karelia and I want to go tall and stay in my domain , but third holy site is on Saarema snd I don’t want to conquer it. So how trigger event that would make less holy sites as requirements for reformation?
Playing as Baltic empire first I created hybrid livonian culture combining lathgalian and estonian, and now i’m interested in making culture and religion synergies. Should I replace some of the tradition for another forest bonus for stacking? And what tenets should I change? I like sanctity of nature because it’s also forest bonuses, kudikis lemti is unique and fun but is that really so useful? I mean 250 piety for each kid is good but making pregnancy as virtue looks like I must change religion for equal or female dominated, and this would ruin all Inheritage because for some strange reason for 10 kids I have only 2-3 sons. And I really do t understand what’s benefit of ancestral worship. Also, i make every member dybasty a witch so I want witchcraft a virtue and I can’t decide between stacking fertility with kudikis and adding something like carnal or go to military tenets like warmonger.
Please don’t type “chose anything you want” it’s really not helpful
Just curious which faith would be better for feudalisation. I started as lathgalian, create Livonia, hybridis with estonian for stacking unique MAA like Huscarls and Metsänvartija and become literall unbeatable with those archers and heavy infantry in northern-eastern Europe and formed Baltic Empire quickly. Always been vidilist and i like it for close holy sites but is that any point for it when all other pagans are already converting to christianity? I feel a bit lonely and i'm not sure if this is safe option because there will be no one strong ally soon and i think that i can be crusaded as well
Firstly I started as a custom child character who was gigantic, strong and amazonian with future plans to conquer the Far East and then while growing up my character became lustful, and I realized that female ainu rulers can have concubines and even forcibly take them from captured male prisoners. Also, the size difference between my queen and her husband is impressive lol.
