Crusader Kings II

Crusader Kings II

View Stats:
I Shed Blood of Saxon Men help pls
Starting date 769, Ironman is on (just got Bloody Line this morning). Started as chief of Burgundaholmr, conquered Denmark, converted to Catholic and then conquered Saxony. Atm Norse Catholic with kingdom of Saxony as main title, holding all de jure territories of Saxony kingdom. Also, holding all 5 duchies (jarldoms, whatever) of Saxony by myself.

Still no achievement.
If i have to start as christian, instead of being one while conquering Saxony?
Or there's some required counties behind year 769 Saxony de jure borders?
Hold all required counties by myself instead of giving some to vassals?

Game uses alt names for counties, so cant check all names since no such in wikia...

According to the wiki, you need to completely control the counties of : Luneburg, Brauschweig, Verden, Altmark, Magdeburg, Bremen, Celle, Osnabruck, Oldenburg, Minden, Munster and Gottingen.

You can find the counties by using the Find title or region button under the mini-map.

I mentioned holding all de jure provinces of Saxony on 769 because different nations may have different names for counties. Like, wiki says Altmark. Wth is Altmark? "Find title or region" button cant find existance of Altmark. Other name, by wiki, is Laczyn, but search cant find is as well. By some magic ways now i know that Altmark is Havelberg.

Again, wiki says that Braunschweig and Celle (cant find it in search) is same duchy. But same wiki says that Braunschweig is same duchy with Osnabruck, while in game second is in duchy of Angria (not exists in wiki).

Game got map rewritten few times, and since one of those (maybe that one where they addedTIbet, not sure), many counties were split into many smaller counties. And wiki isnt updated to new map and names. Thats why asking.

Okay, seems like i need a part of Pomerania de jure lands for this achievement...

Thanks anyways ^^ Wasnt thinking about searching counties via list of duchies.

I have found this on reddit :

https://www.reddit.com/r/CrusaderKings/comments/b5bg2k/i_shed_blood_of_saxon_men_not_firing/

It's from a year ago and from what I have read, he was never able to get the achievement, may be it's bugged now.

Are you sure you control everything in each county? May be you miss a temple or a barony.

Seems like bugged, yes. And yes, i'm 100% sure that i control every barony/temple/city/tribe. Saxony was tribal, and i'm tribal as well. Clicked every county, and everywhere, every holding, is Saxon ownership, either me or my vassals. No vassalshigher than count level, all duchy titles belong to me.

Got more lands from nearby ppl, and still nothing. Cant expand further without giving titles to vassals, fines for overnumbering and holding too many duchies are too much.

Probably will downgrade game back to Charlemagne as mentioned on reddit, ty.

If I'm reading the achievement code correctly you need to start as a christian (and non-saxon) for that achievement since religion_group = christian is under possible section not happened.
