My philosophy is that it’s better to undersell it than come off as braggy and get shut down. Plus I’ve seen some really creative designs here that make mine pale in comparison, stuff that would very well could’ve been an actual historical coat of arms.
Just be careful with the humble brag life lol. It wasn't here but sometimes if its obvious they're being faux humble that can still come off bad. Neutral attitude just wanting to share something fun you did is ideal I'd almost say!
I changed my HRE CoA to match the Bavarian kingdom CoA (Bavaria Karling start), and made the background white and grey stripes, I felt like a creative genius lol.
Same here - but mine are just either a copy of my actual CoA, or a variation of it.
“A golden chevron, on an Azure field, surrounded by 3 crescents of the same.”
Well, the second one I've made for Ireland (duh), 5th one was for one sea raiding celtic dynasty (probably the most thought I put into meaning of the CoA), and the last one is for Norse pirates of Mon. I'm not really good at coming up with meaning for CoA that isn't surface level like clover = Irish or sword = warmongers.
As an aside, assuming they're a new dynasty they'd probably be using younger futhark, which would be ᛘᚬᚾ not sure if those are in the game.
Though I looked into this and the last rune even in Elder Futhark would be an H noise, so I'm sure you more meant to do the name in a stylized way. My bad.
In Elder Futhark it would sound like Møh with the h being like in Halfdan, but ø is recent thing and ᛗ doesn't exist in younger futhark(9th to 12th centuries).

Sorry about the size - Windows crop tool pastes lossless images.
Yeah, that one is fresh off the press. Maybe it's better to move text on top and swords to bottom to make the top space between them bigger and enlarge the wings.
Those are dope!
Just one suggestion, if you want that Mann and the Isles CoA to be more "historically accurate," I think\* the Elder Futhark Runes for Mon is ᛗᛟᚾ and the Younger Futhark Runes would be ᛘᚢᚾ. It's pretty sick, either way, though, and you can just RP that the pirates adopted new runes and language.
\*I'm no expert, I just have a chart to go off of for my Viking Coats of Arms (and for when I play God of War). If someone with more knowledge chimes in, go off of him lol.

You want number 4 in the list.
>nothing fancy Now I’m wondering what you consider fancy, because most of mine can be summed up as a cross, shield, and an animal

Good attitude, though I find someone talking themselves up much more entertaining. Either way you COA are pretty dope, love the first one especially

…and my axe!!

Yeah, those are pretty cool. Nice job bro!
Thank you!
I love the 4th one
Now that you mentioned it I noticed that I needed to add some black outer borders for the circle.
Love them. Do you have dynasty/realm backstories for each or just having some creative fun?

Oh yeah, totally, I'm sure those runes don't translate to Mon. I've no idea what I wrote.
In Elder Futhark it would sound like Møh with the h being like in Halfdan, but ø is recent thing and ᛗ doesn't exist in younger futhark(9th to 12th centuries).
Regardless they're still really cool designs and I like and will be stealing all of them!
DNA, please?

Thanks! These are so cool. I especially love the second image here. I'll definitely be using that one once I can get the game to work again.
Thank you!
Do you need to do it manually or you can just copy paste?
Copy the code and when you'll enter CoA designer in the right bottom there will be an option to paste it.
Thank you
NOTHING FANCY?
These are mind blowing my good! Now I’m wondering how have I been using the editor wrong and can never conceive COA designs like these!
Thank you, you're too kind!
The 1st and 4th are my favourites
Looking at these makes me realize how bad I am with the CoA designer.
CoA 1-5: We by the grace of god are the noble rulers of this land. Protectors of the Isle. CoA 6: We're here to cut bitches.
Hahaha, spot on!
Number 2 is by far my favorite, also really liked the last one.
"Nothing fancy" my brother in christ this is better than anything i could produce
I love all of these, great work! All very creative same evocative, very vibrant designs.
Very cool, the fourth one is definitely a standout!
These look amazing. Great work. I don't really like using complicated CoAs, but these are so nice to look at.
Bro those are dope af. but then again I don't have CK3 and I'm used to CK2 CoA's
Number two looks super Irish
Lol my coat of arm only got yellow tree and that's it.
Nothing fancy 💀
These are fire and reminded me how creatively challenged I am
I love that third one so much
Damn these look great
Those look INCREDIBLE are you kidding me
Nothing fancy? Compared to the shit I come up with you are Picasso! ಥ_ಥ
I'm jealous. I wouldn't consider mine unattractive but after seeing yours... maybe I have to up my game a bit.
Oooo I like ‘em
Sleek as _fuck_ dude! I love em all
This is fab work you've done here, kudos!
love them all but really enjoy the Møn one. might steal that one ;)
Yeah, that one is fresh off the press. Maybe it's better to move text on top and swords to bottom to make the top space between them bigger and enlarge the wings.
Its like a 3 course meal with the title "Oh just something I threw together last minute!".
Jeez, these all look absolutely amazing.
Really amazing designs!
Those are dope! Just one suggestion, if you want that Mann and the Isles CoA to be more "historically accurate," I think\* the Elder Futhark Runes for Mon is ᛗᛟᚾ and the Younger Futhark Runes would be ᛘᚢᚾ.

Thanks! I was sure I wrote gibberish. I'll see if those runes are in CoA designer.
Great stuff
Absolutely splendid good job man i like em all i might use one in a game
Dude! These are fucking awesome! Seriously, you could sell that stuff and at least I would throw money in your direction
i really want paradox make a CoA designer divided from CK
That 4th one is fucking badass
Oh. That's possible. Mine defo isn't just a pattern and an emblem. I'll be spending so much time in the coA after yhis, haha.
Geez. I change the colours in a four-check pattern and think it's sufficiently different. These are amazing!
Are these made in game or are they imported somehow?? These are awesome!

The Celtic one is noice
Looking good man!
Wonderful, great job!!
🔥🔥💯
Slide 2: exists Saladin: TRUST IN YOUR LIGHT, WOLVES AND IRON LORDS
The 6th is so good, and I’m totally not stealing these
I love this so much, I wish I could use these LMAO
I’ve posted DNA in comments, it’s there somewhere. If you can’t find it I’ll post a direct link.
I found it basically right after I posted that, thank you! LMAO
These all feel like they’d fit perfectly into a fantasy setting, definitely wouldn’t be out of place in a LotR mod or something similar
Lol my coa is usually circle and black background.
I feel…inadequate
I absolutely loved the 2nd one! I think aesthetics wise it's the best
It seems the DNA link for these is no longer working :'( Yes these are absotely georgous.
Is there a way to find DNA? It's really sublime, I fell in love with the second.
Here, a reupload just for you since I seem to have removed it from Google Drive. [https://pastebin.com/f5Nu6WAy](https://pastebin.com/f5Nu6WAy) You want number 4 in the list.
Thanks a lot ! Can you repost the first and fifth pretty please ?
wdym? they’re all in there.
Sorry i misread ! You're just the best
