Religions are susceptible to Heresy or leaving a Faith for another when Fervor is low. An example would be the Abrahamic Family (Christianity, Dualism, Islam, Judaism, Milete Tawuse Melek) condones Holy Wars against everyone. A Religious Family is a group of Religions in the same branch. Lastly, Holy Wars may be allowed or restricted between different Religious Families. However, if the attacker’s Faith is has the Pluralist Doctrine or the defender has Vassals of the attacker’s own Faith in the targeted area, some or all Vassal Rulers in the targeted area may simply be transferred to the attacker instead. The winner of the Holy War typically seizes All Counties in the targeted area for themselves. Another piece to note is that you can only do one (1) Holy War for Kingdom during your life time, so make sure to choose carefully. I would not recommend going this option, but certainly is available. You can declare a Holy War if you do not have the Piety cost at a Devotion Penalty that will put you down a Level of Devotion. The base requirements are below and of course can be modified depending on innovations, culture, and faith tenets. To Declare War and use a Holy War Casus Belli you will need to be a neighboring ruler and meet the requirements for the Casus Belli. The fourth main difference is that if you are the defender you will have a decision option to convert to enemy attacker’s faith, and in cases this can save you losing some or all of your realm if you are in a bad position. The third main difference is that anyone of the defenders faith can join in as a defender and does not have to have an alliance to do so. The second is that there are only three (3) Holy War Casus Bellis to choose from Kingdom, Duchy and County. The first major difference as they don’t cost Prestige, but cost Piety instead. These Holy Wars have a lot of unique differences compared to other Casus Belli Claims. For instance if you are a Catholic you will be able to use a Holy War Casus Belli towards someone of the Asatru or Muwalladism. Does it have to reach 100 for a crusade to be declared I have conquered some provinces in Spain (I believe every time I win the fervor goes down). It allows a Casus Belli to be just based on the defending ruler’s faith in comparison to your own. I am playing France, and I am in the 1107 AD, and the Pope has not yet declared a crusade. This type of War differs from other Wars as Rulers of the same Faith. Maybe the crusaders should be limited to using only men at arms or so to keep their armies of limited size.Holy Wars are special wars that are started with one of the Holy War Casus Bellis. In such case you will have crusades but in the aftermath the crusader states may be mostly left alone without any significant support and in the long run you may see the decline of crusades.Īlso how much sense do it make that everyone in Europé take their whole levy so far away to go on crusade, it make it really hard for the defender to fight against these massive crusader armies. I think fervor is a good way to control the strength and unity of the crusade, if a religion start to lose counties to holy war its fervor go up while successful holy wars do the opposite. The battles and organization of the crusader armies also put holes in the myth that medieval european armies was poorly organized and would not even be able to fight against ancient roman legions when they fought against and defeated enemies on the same technological level while being outnumbered. In fact the crusaders was often outnumbered, which make alot of sense and did not have the unity or backing of Europé to keep the crusader kingdoms alive. In CK2 crusaders are absolute massive and completely united, neither which seems correct in reality.
