Crusader Kings Complete reviews and comments

Translated by
Microsoft from Spain
Crusader Kings Complete is a game that for me is CLASSIC. I Bought the first version that went out there by July 2004 for 45 Euros (I still have the purchase ticket that you can hardly see). I Have enjoyed him in countless games being count, Duke or King... There are many cheats that can be used using I think the F12 key. I recommend not to use them. The Most beautiful Thing is to take a county as far away as possible and take it to kingdom; Obviously you have to go save the Games, because it is difficult to get it. There Are Many ways to do it and you will need prestige, a minimum of 3-4 counties that will allow you to obtain a minimum army of 2000 uds, as well as be independent; When you have it attacks kingdoms of 1 province: Navarre, Aragon; Once conquered, make peace and put the condition, you will be king. When you are king or Duke you can overwhelm your inferiors: Duke to Earls, king to Dukes and counts. The first versions had a bug that allowed you to conquer the whole map but for this you had to go past your son County and duchy (never kingdoms) to download your badboy... Unfortunately this disappeared and now if you do, when the son has more than 4 or 5 counties grant a county to a vassal, and go your to know if you will not rebel in the future. Another trick that also works and continues to work is that when you have resolved the succession with enough children you can dedicate to marry the older women who have (key F6), this is not to use cheats, get money for your constructions. If you kill them with the intrigue and do not discover you would leave the round play, since you could marry another old, get money for it, and lower your badboy. So when I saw it on STEAM, I didn't hesitate to buy it. This version is the original Crusader Kings plus an expansion, therefore as its name actually indicates is Complete, after this expansion came out (after consulting the fans to see if he liked) CRUSADER KINGS 2. Another important thing is that this game allowed to export the item to load it with Europa Universalis II or III, when you reached 1453, which is when the game ends (Taking Constantinople by the Turks). Finally If you want to add more songs to the game, just look for the MUSIC *.* file on your computer with the search engine. When you find it you want to have a path to a folder.. \Steam\SteamApps\... You load and with the editor add at the end the names debts detus music files, and add the music files (MP3) in the subdirectory where the other files are. When You play you will hear the songs of Always and also yours.
