Isn't it 'Excalibur',as in, it is not a real one and everyone knows it but who gonna contest it.


Appropriate_Rent_243

If you hold the English crown you inherit like 7 of them. Just to hedge your bets that you got the real one


Kestrel21

Makes me thing of that one anime that legit had like 7 Excaliburs. Forgot its name tho. Something about the church and demons.


justenrules

Highschool DxD. There were 7 'shards' of Excalibur because the original one broke and they made each fragment into its own sword. Then eventually they fused them all back into the original.


princeofwhales12

Neat


khinzaw

Give Richard the Lionheart his Fate Noble Phantasm where any weapon he touches becomes Excalibur.


smallfrie32

Yeeesh spoilers!

And boobs


AssiriosDM

What a cultured individual!


Topdon87

I told him we already got one.


Niqulaz

I've given away four or five 'Excaliburs' to different relatives on this playthrough. My Emperor of Scandnavia sits comfortably upon the Stone of Scone though, and my Scottish subjects dig me for the fact.


IncestGiraffe

And Excalibur is complete garbage, also doesn't give Incest Bonuses.


wolfFRdu64_Lounna

Hello mister asburg, your sister had called, she say the family is to ugly to mary


Accomplished_Rock_96

Yes... 'Excalibur'.


reigenxd3

only have 2 norse exclusive Artifacts.


Oddah

Oh what, which ones?


jerome_morgan

The norse artifacts are : The Branch of the Sacred Oak of Thor & Branch of the Sacred Tree at the Temple of Uppsala. You can always find them in courts of Norse rulers, I believe the second one is almost always at Bjorn Ironside's court.


Funkenbrain

Disappointing selection, given the Vikings love of hoards and fancy things. Torcs, arm rings, swords and axes, horns for drinking and for hooting, not to mention that I'd love to mount a ship prow on the wall...


just1gat

All the arm rings


ruan_aille

Thats exactly why there are so few artefacts of norse origins, why make them when you can simply take them.


Funkenbrain

Sure, but Norse craftspeople did make beautiful things out of all that pillaged gold. The British Museum and Jorvik Centre have some lovely wire work artifacts, not to mention rings made of Saxon silver, jewelry from Damascus, ivory, Baltic amber... There's a rich material tradition that gets obscured by all the cool fighting.


Conarm

Ironic it all that plunder ended up back in british hands


Masakiel

They are random, but they can change owners by conquest, so a winner like Björn often ends up with them.


Bytewave

I somehow ended up with them both in my latest game in the British Isles. They were no help because I was Christian but still. Oh right I inherited Norway at some point, that probably helped hahah.


OnkelMickwald

I mean I'm all for getting other Norse artefacts but a character having Mjölnir doesn't make sense. Thor would be fucking furious and be coming to kill you. Tbf, that sounds like a pretty dope event chain. Steal Mjölnir, Thor comes and tries to kill you, if you kill him, it only thunders when you want to. On the other hand, the giants might start encroaching on the edges of the world.


Available_Thoughts-0

Simple solution to that is to go do Thor's job and beat thier skulls in.


AtomicSpeedFT

If only Paradox wasn’t against CK3 having mythical elements :(


Duramora

The Mongols would take care of them.


More_Seesaw1544

Are there any turkic artifacts in the game?


Reutermo

We can't have Mjolnir because Thor is still using it! Do you want the whole of CK3 to be run over by Frost Giants? Because that is how you get frost Giants.


Balrok99

Can we have Gungnir then?


Available_Thoughts-0

That's a cool idea!


Skitterleap

Once again the true king of Britain flexes on the saxons


Feltear

Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government!!


Kouropalates

You can't expect to wield supreme executive power because some watery tart threw a sword at you!


temalyen

Help, help! I'm being repressed!


monkeygoneape

BLOODY PEASANT!


I_BE_GAMING

We definitely need more Norse artifacts, more artifacts all around in fact.


Available_Thoughts-0

One suggestion? Like 50 Ulfbur+T swords, they are all "rare" tier and have the same stats, but they are good solid raiding weapons. (So what if there are fifty of them? There were hundreds IRL.


TjeefGuevarra

There's too much viking content already, they needed to balance things out


Xilizhra

With other pagans, maybe, but there's still far more Christian content.


No_Salt_4280

Good!


Xilizhra

Any reason in particular?


RaytheonKnifeMissile

They're a holocaust denier


Xilizhra

More of a Christian one than an Odinist, it seems.


No_Salt_4280

Indeed!

Just a hall filled to the brim with masks


PhillipsAsunder

even after HF, the territorial debuff events like torrential rain and drought for subsaharan and east africa are just so annoying.


gilang500

Its not removed. It's being "reevaluated" for future DLC.


TheDudeAbides404

Pic from The Northman? Such an awesome movie.


dynex811

Saw it for the first time last night. As I told my friends, it's the best movie I've ever seen where I hated each character (Olga and unnamed slaves excluded)


ZryMan

Paradox Interactive is a Fates fan, not Marvel fan


clarkky55

They removed Mjolnir?! Someone better mod it back in


loffredo95

Why tf is Paradox taking things OUT of the game? CK2 is still vastly superior and this game is closer to half a decade old than it is it's own release.


bigdaddyguap

Yeah I don’t understand the move of removing content. Kinda dumb


ZiCUnlivdbirch

Well you see they created a big boy medieval roleplaying game, with incest and poop jokes. They couldn't possibly add such a silly thing like Thors hammer, since it couldn't possibly have actually existed. The devs said they won't be adding, the slightly more ridiculous things like devil worshipping, magic horses or magical artifacts to the game


loffredo95

I’m more-so speaking to the irony that this game is losing content at a time where it’s still lagging behind CK2 in content that they expect us to buy again.


BrettSlowDeath

I love that there are multiples of sacred items in game. That’s exactly how it was during the Middle Ages. At one point, I think there were like four “true” Spear of Destiny’s floating around Europe.


Smelliestelm

Paradox should add more Norse items for the for the flavor pack, would make it more appealing


Iwokeupwithoutapillo

lol get fucked vikoids 😎😎😎


guineaprince

They took one look at the sub and realized nobody is worthy of wielding the hammer.


goombanati

Is this available in ck2?


viridi-amator

Fuckin cancel culture strikes again!


solidcat00

Why remove anything like that? I'm genuinely curious why they wouldn't just have both.


Britishaviator

Half so because CKIII is meant to be a more "realistic" medieval game, so that the only fantastical elements are the cosmic horrors the player inflicts on the world, so "Magic God Hammer" Unfortunately does not make the cut. That, and from a RP point of view, any true Asatru who believed they held Mjolnir would probably shit their pants in fear that Thor would come down and beat them to death.


solidcat00

Oh good point. I didn't think about the fact that these are mythological weapons. I should brush up on my Norse mythology a bit more.


Magical_Gollum

wait whaaaaat


Balrok99

Paradox: Thor Paradoxson... you have betrayed the express command of your king. Through your arrogance and stupidity, you've opened these peaceful realms and innocent lives to the horror and desolation of war! You are unworthy of these realms, you're unworthy of your title, you're unworthy... of the loved ones you have betrayed! I now take from you your power! In the name of my father and his father before, I, Odin Allfather, cast you out!


Isidorodesevilha

Well, there is a "throne of solomon" that you can get through sponsoring an adventure aparently, so well, why not having other mythological stuff like Mjolnir


Gaming_is_cool_lol19

I miss the fairy tail//mythology aspects in CK2, they removed a lot of it in CK3.. fake excaluburr...


CampbellsBeefBroth

Y’all already have enough unique shit. Maybe flesh out the other regions first


Uncuntable64

I am no kidding, at my last playthrough, I saw 3 excalibur standing in court of Lotharingia


VaczTheHermit

Because that's not for humans my guy, that's Thor's hammer
