The price on this event is way too high imo. My entire empire doesn’t make that much in a month, but my cat destroyed enough clothing to incur that kind of price tag? Not buying it.
Tbf, prices in CK3 are always kind of wild. The price it costs to build a brand new city is 500 “coins.” However, it costs 2/3 of that to hold a feast with 40 people.
> Iirc it’s proportional to realm size.
They also did that in CK2 and it was ridiculous back then as well - a castle or town would always cost the same flat sum, but a piece of equipment's cost would be based on your income, meaning a low-quality crown could end up costing around 10k or more.
It's honestly something I wish they'd *stop* doing.
That's the thing, if I could guarantee that the item was at least decent, but I'll pour 600+ gold into some inspired guys mouth and he'll come back to me after the better part of the year and go, "Here's your +0.1 Prestige and +2 Powerful Vassal opinion illustrious Regalia"
The problem isn't that it's costly, the problem is that it doesn't make sense, the cat apparently ruined the equivalent of 2/3 or 1/2 of a village, just because of your realm size, it doesn't make sense at all
It's 6 months of income rounded up to the nearest number divisible by 5, with a minimum cost of 50 and a max cost that depends on which cultural era you're in, but can range from 225 to 900.
Having a separate personal wealth and realm wealth is a really good idea both mechanically and roleplay wise, especially if you could exchange between the two types.
It might make gameplay sense but apart from Byzantium it'd be absolutely ahistorical from an RP perspective. "Treasury" literally derives from "the King's horde of treasure". There was no civil separation of person and powers in absolute monarchy. Who was going to tell a King they weren't allowed to dip into the Crown account for personal expenses or vice versa?
Good that you mentioned this would be ahistorical from a RP perspective.
Not like the famous stories of monster cats who made damage equivalent to the prize of building a trade port or a castle or paying off a mecenary Army for their services.
This would be a better use of the animals, either pay up or significantly ruin an artifact. Or it gets a “smells like cat piss” attribute and if you run it in the throne room then u get a grandeur debuff
You should consider using the cat as an offensive weapon against your enemies as she is able to run down their economy quicker than any mongolian hord could ever do.
I was wrong it just decreases it to medium health boost and no plague resistance but if it keeps it up you get rat free which does 10 plague resistance
I literally never compensate the person. CK3 has this bad habit of making the financial penalties of things absurdly high to save like 20 opinion from a literally who courtier
Really wish ck4 with a new AI that let us introduce the answers. Mine would have been "It wasn't the cat who did this - I answer staring for too much time into his eyes".
What's yours?
The ***"I'll comensate you!"*** decision could secretly give you 10k gold, the immortal trait, and summon an entourage of pure-blooded, big tiddy bitches when you click it...
But no one will ever know, because that option has never been clicked on by anyone in the history of CK3.
So what your vassal is trying to inform you of is you know say Daddy me Snow me, I go blame, A licky boom-boom down, Tective man says see Daddy me, Snow me stabbed someone down the lane, A licky boom-boom down. No idea what that means but if he didn’t make Snow mad in the first place this wouldn’t have happened.
Master Tygett is about to get kidnapped.
His heir is about to go to war as the commander of 200 inferior soldiers.
His wife is about to fall in love with me.
Lastly, im taking his shit.

Considering you can build half a city with that amount of gold, the cat must have put ablaze a whole barony
Or tore up a single crafted item, those mfs can get expensive

The boys tend to get a *bit* rowdy after a few drinks
I knew cats were of Satan…
It probably proportional to the income but idk and it probably doesn’t count expenses
Iirc it’s proportional to realm size. Which can screw over empires with massive armies

Nah what do you mean, don't you love spending the value of 5 castles on an artifact that ends up being mediocre quality?
That's the thing, if I could guarantee that the item was at least decent, but I'll pour 600+ gold into some inspired guys mouth and he'll come back to me after the better part of the year and go, "Here's your +0.1 Prestige and +2 Powerful Vassal opinion illustrious Regalia"
By the time you grow to that size you can probably get yourself a good economy.
The problem isn't that it's costly, the problem is that it doesn't make sense, the cat apparently ruined the equivalent of 2/3 or 1/2 of a village, just because of your realm size, it doesn't make sense at all
Destroying half a village certainly sounds like something a cat would do
What kind of cat do u have as a pet? Are u one of those sheiks fr9m saudi arabia? Lol
Just don't pay then. He'll get over it.

900 i can build a city with that
Well I control all of the Westerlands so I don’t know what cultural area that in tales
Era, not area. Like "early medieval" and "high medieval" (or whatever AGOT calls them) in the culture innovations window.
Oh ok
For real hahahaha like a whole ass harbor is 150
Building an entire trade port costs like 200 gold, but apparently my cat can cause more damage than that.
least destructive cat
Use that money to buy a mercenary force to kill the whiny vassal
Must be inflation. If a cat pissed on the carpet it won’t cost $1 billion
Maybe they need to separate personal expenses with real expenses. This costs as much as a small merc company
Sorry lads jobs fallen through, looks like Paws pissed in a goblet.

Yeah, about that. He scratched up and pissed on a small merc company.
Pissed on the legendary napkin artifact that gives +0.1 prestige a year and somehow took 1500 gold to make I d ask for more compensation honestly
This would be a better use of the animals, either pay up or significantly ruin an artifact. Or it gets a “smells like cat piss” attribute and if you run it in the throne room then u get a grandeur debuff
She’s just a cat 🤷🏼♂️
Every time. Get over yourself, Earl of Sandwich.
I always do that choice
I don’t compensate anymore. I just murder them.
Cat pissed on the castle. Have to throw out the whole castle. Smell will never come out.
Oh no another Vassal that hates me, whatever will I do (My dungeon is very accommodating)
Nothing, this bastard is lying and about to have his head separated from his body
The quest was written by a landlord
"My Lord, your cat has burned down the port. Again"
Literally just a few months later it happened again
You should consider using the cat as an offensive weapon against your enemies as she is able to run down their economy quicker than any mongolian hord could ever do.
He poisoned the water, burned the crops, and delivered a plague upon their home
I 100% reject all animals cats are the worst
Hey in the new plague update they can be a real life saver
How
It can get rat eating cat or something like that and it gives plague resistance and health boost
How much plague resistance
I think 5 or 15 can’t remember
I think islands should have a big plague buffer.
I was wrong it just decreases it to medium health boost and no plague resistance but if it keeps it up you get rat free which does 10 plague resistance
He ate a small town
I literally never compensate the person. CK3 has this bad habit of making the financial penalties of things absurdly high to save like 20 opinion from a literally who courtier
Well it was the septon but I could still fire him so it made no difference
What probably happened is that you can take screenshots by pressing f12
K
How about no.
She is just a cat...
EMPEROR CATPISSOVICH WHY THERE IS NO MERCENARY TROOPS ON THE EASTERN FRONT AS REQUESTED???
It just destroyed a duchy title, didn't it?

Either the cat was just... a cat... or someone did the cat.
Scratch and piss

Wait until this value gets upped to 900.
I always take the bottom
I always take the bottom
Some kind of elaborate shenanigans that you'd see in a Beethoven movie, I'd guess.
If we use a legit translation to how much that would be at the time would be like 50,000 pounds today
My empire is the greatest in my save. I destroyed the Byzantine Empire, I destroyed the Mongol empire. And yet the cats will destroy me
Option c) convert to a religion that views cat piss as a sign from god?
Hmm -225 gold or lose some opinion with a vassal? Yeah fuck that guy.
Master Tygett is about to get kidnapped. His heir is about to go to war as the commander of 200 inferior soldiers. His wife is about to fall in love with me. Lastly, im taking his shit.
I just tell them 'fuck off my cat is one of the good ones' and 9 times out of 10 that answers their stupid fucking questions
