But I finally managed to conquer all of Ireland in Crusader Kings II! And with a single character, nonetheless! Sure, I guess that technically I didn't conquer all of Ireland, only enough of it to rule it by De Jure, and I guess it's not technically Ireland either but rather the game uses the Irish language name for it, Éirie, but it's still quite an accomplishment.
And because I know that some of you are going to ask for the specifics, I have no expansion packs and I started on the default day that it sets you as if you select High Middle Ages (sometime in the year 1066) as the Petty King of Mumu. I conquered the 7th and last required county in the year 1098 and managed to afford the De Jure title the following year. (I was unable to afford it immediately because I decided to create a new barony completely from scratch just a few years eralier). With the same character my game is currently in the year 1100 and my character is 73 years old, outliving quite a number of his children (who died of natural causes and old age, by the way) and my character is a great-grandfather.

Oh yeah it onlys starts on 682 with expansions but it's fun without. Du Jure means you have a legit claim to everything in Ireland so uh take advantage.
If you can get De Jure control of all of British isles you become a emperor. Damn I want to play crusader kings right now and conquer stuff again but I'll wait a few more days before I go off taking land.
Enjoy Tim!

Damned heretics keep making a mess of things.
Also my character died and now I'm playing as his grandson and I have a hundred uncles and cousins and siblings and whatnot all laying claims to my throne.

The Jews fled to Scotland and learned the love of Irish Catholics.... The ones that didn't were murdered.
Now there's no more Jews.
Irish Hitler is the name! Crusader Kings is the game!
