权力分配指南

这篇文章主要讲解如何防止 派系 造反, 重点是你应该如何分封权力。

增加个人实力

强化你的直辖领地

定居型统治者（如封建/神权/共和等）应该把建设的重点放在他们的首都和首都公国的直辖领地上，以最大限度地提高领地的征召兵（数量上分别有50%的首都加成，和25%的首都公国加成）。具体应该建造什么建筑请参见 地产#策略.

而部落制 和 游牧制 统治者应该将其领地集中在有许多空位的省份。

大多数统治者应尽量将其直辖伯爵领限制在一个小的地理区域内。这样就可以迅速集结军队，避免他们在未集结时被各个击破。它还可以避免触发好感惩罚，如 "持有的公国太多 "或 其它公国头衔的持有者想要收回其法理内你直辖的伯爵领。

然而，集中领地的代价是你把鸡蛋放在一个篮子里。如果你被宣战，就要提高警惕。比如你的首都公国是圣战目标，一场成功的圣战会让你失去一切，严重削弱你的实力，甚至导致游戏结束。

雇佣近卫军（需要罗马遗产DLC）

作为一个国王或皇帝，近卫军 是你个人军队的主要组成部分。如果你有一个小的或不发达的领地，或者你的领地将由于 均分继承法 被大大减少，他们都会变得非常有用。

廉价的近卫军构成（如轻步）可以使你的部队数量膨胀，并使各 派系 不愿意真正造反（AI会比较双方的兵力）。另一方面，强大的近卫军构成（如重骑）在派系 造反时将更有利于赢得战斗。

最大限度地从诸侯国获取征召兵

当你的帝国足够大，你需要分封诸侯之时，尽量将其设置为诸侯国的首都与你的首都在同一法律上的帝国（例如将帝国法理内的一处伯爵领授予他成为他的唯一封地，再给他非法理国度的国王/公爵头衔）。这样这些公爵/国王所覆盖的所有省份的征召兵数量会提升。（可参见：征召兵中的领主征召兵章节）

另外，对外侵略时，最好能占领整个王国，使其在法律上开始转移到你的帝国（需要100年）。

国王的优势在于，公国的转移通常更容易启动，而且法律上的修改因素对同化为王国的改变更大。

合理分封头衔以避免内陆诸侯的出现

在创建大型诸侯国（如多个国王头衔给到同一人）时，尽量确保每个诸侯国都能提供足够的船只来运送他们提供的部队。通常，这可以通过按比例分配陆地和沿海的领土来实现。例如，将安纳托利亚（沿海）与亚美尼亚（内陆）结合起来给到同一个诸侯，可以使从两个王国筹集的部队在安纳托利亚的沿海地区筹集，并有足够的船只运载他们。

与必须在0%的士气下开始陆路跋涉的部队相比，可以立即装船的部队能更快地对战争做出贡献。(通常你应该直接点击地图，从省份视图中筹集诸侯的军队和船只，这样你就可以控制他们出现的位置；相反，如果你只是在军事视图点征召他们只会出现在对应诸侯国的首都，而这可能意味着他们需要长途跋涉才能投入战斗)。

保持你的诸侯处于弱势地位

除了强大自身，你还需要让你的诸侯相对于你处于弱势，并在可能时削弱他们的权力，以免他们发起你应付不了的大规模派系叛乱。

一般来说，你希望有足够多的附庸，以至于一小部分人不能以派系要求的方式给你带来惊喜/惊吓，但也不能多到你没有办法安抚他们。（维持过多人的好感是很困难的）

分配被征服的头衔

如果你通过 战争 来扩张，你经常会有需要发放的头衔。你应该相当谨慎地对待这些头衔的发放对象，因为很容易出现一个诸侯拥有许多头衔的情况，并最终形成能够挑战你的实力

一般推荐的分配伯爵领的策略是这样的：使用 角色查找器 寻找那些男性、不是统治者、属于你的宗教、属于你的文化、属于你的 家族的人物。你现在应该找到一个没有继承权的人，他的继承人也不拥有任何东西。然后，你给这个人一个单一的伯爵领及其下所有的地产。你也可以在搜索栏中输入特质名称，以便找到特别理想的特质，如 "安于现状"。对于印度人来说，还需要进行额外的检查，以便人物的种姓允许他们接受该伯爵领的首府类型（不同的种姓对应城堡/神殿等）。

公国一般应该授予给单伯爵领的诸侯。基于短期考虑，这个成为公爵的伯爵应该是一堆伯爵中和你好感最高的那个人，这样他们成为公爵后更加可以保证对你的忠心。另一种办法是将公国授予拥有其公国法理首都的伯爵，因为如果一个公爵没有拥有其公国的法理首都，他们会更倾向于吞并它，而这么做的结果就是这个公国的直辖力量得到了扩大；另外，你可以把公国头衔授予最弱的伯爵，这样他们就没有足够的力量来反对你或夺取其公国的首都。

也可以把公国授予那些在这个公国内不持有土地的伯爵。他们可能有和你同文化或同家族的优势，或者能够在一个方便的地方组建这个公国的军队（类型我们对内陆诸侯的处理）。你甚至可以通过给他们的附庸伯爵授予新的公爵头衔来削弱你现有的公爵。（一但某个公爵手下的伯爵也获得了公爵头衔，这意味着他们头衔相同平起平坐，自然会脱离与他的封臣关系）

通过给每个附庸公爵和国王一个小的领地（大部分领地由他们的附庸持有），你可以确保他们无法筹集大量军队。请注意，他们提供给你征召兵规模只取决于其名下王国内所有领地的建筑，而不是其内部的统治结构；甚至有可能一个附庸为你提供的军队比他们自己能召集的还要多。

剥夺头衔

每当有臣子反叛而你击败他们时，你通常应该撤销他们的主要头衔。然后你可以按照上述策略将这个头衔交给其他人。

另一个让他们反叛而不招致暴政的方法是以正当理由（如他们的阴谋被你发现，或拒绝停止参予阴谋）将他们监禁起来。如果逮捕失败，他们就会反叛，粉碎他们的反叛后，你就可以剥夺他们的两个头衔。如果他们不反叛，你可以赎回他们（赚取金钱并可能有另一次机会逮捕他们），或者让他们安全地被软禁（在那里他们不能制造麻烦）。

帝国制允许剥夺头衔公爵总督头衔，而伊克塔政体则允许剥夺头衔任何公国而不受惩罚。由于王国头衔不能以这种方式剥夺，所以能够自由剥夺公国头衔的玩家可能更愿意避免拥有附庸国王，例如通过不让任何公爵控制其所在王国51%以上的土地并销毁其上的王国头衔让他们无法觊觎也无法创建（通常你可以把一个王国一分为三或四，交给不同的公爵来实现这点）。另外，也可以发放只有1或2个法理公国的小王国头衔；这样的国王通常有薄弱的军队。

最后，你有一种技巧可以剥夺任何被发现支持阴谋的臣子的头衔。首先，多次授予和剥夺其荣誉称号。其次，礼貌地要求他们停止支持阴谋。由于他们恨你，他们会拒绝。由于拒绝是一种背叛行为，你可以剥夺一个头衔......然后再要求。

如果 御前会议DLC 处于激活状态，请确保尽可能长时间地将剥夺头衔的权利保持在议会之外。然而，即使你失去了单方面剥夺头衔的权利，也不要绝望：只要监禁权仍在统治者手中，把叛军关进地牢并扔掉钥匙（让他们后半身一直呆在里面）是可行的。然后在与他们的继承人的关系上下功夫，一旦继承人接班，情况就会有所改善。如果被囚禁的诸侯是一个 "强大 "的诸侯，这个策略甚至更好，因为这样你就可以在议会中找到一个更可能与你投票的替代者。

防止诸侯国合并

密切关注你的诸侯之间的战争。考虑完全禁止战争，使用中等王权法（没有御前会议DLC）或领地法 （有御前会议DLC）。然而，通过战略性地使用王国全境和平（御前会议DLC）或要求外交行动（死神索命DLC）来进行干预可能会更好。

如果你的臣子没有锁定其继承人，请密切关注他们的婚姻情况。如果公爵和女公爵结婚，他们的继承人将获得两个公国。尽量帮助你的女公爵找到不是统治者或继承人的丈夫。（当然你也可以利用这一点来合并2个国家）

鼓励诸侯使用均分继承法

如果没有 "御前会议DLC"，诸侯只有在你的王权很高的情况下才能改用长子继承制，所以你选择中等王权是很好的。

有了 "死神索命DLC"，玩家可以通过外交行动要求一位封臣转变为均分继承法

对于查理曼DLC，请记住，通过外交行动授予总督权限可以迫使臣子转为长子继承制。

保持与封臣的高好感

最后，你应该尽力让你的诸侯满意。这使得他们不太可能加入派别，并倾向于提供超过最低限度的征召兵。

同文化同宗教

相同文化和宗教的臣子有更高的好感，更不倾向于加入独立派别。

让你的所有臣子都信奉同一宗教特别简单，因为在中等王权（无御前会议DLC"）或宗教控制授权（有御前会议DLC"）时，你可以剥夺异端或异教徒持有的任何头衔而不会招致暴政；如果游戏规则允许秘密邪教的形成，这一法律就更加重要，因为不能强迫公开宣布其秘密宗教的邪教徒皈依。或者，你可以诱导他们皈依你的宗教。这对异端或异教徒特别有用。(要进行这样的皈依，要发现他们的阴谋（和/或任何其他方法，只是监禁），并在他们被监禁时强迫他们皈依）。请注意，游牧民族和未改造的异教徒不能要求宗教皈依。

对于文化，你应该简单地确保永远不要把头衔给不同文化的人，除非你有一个非常好的理由，比如说，这样可以推动他们对其他头衔的要求。你也可以（如上所述）故意让他们反叛，这样你就可以把他们的头衔给别人。

参加十字军东征

如果你有机会参加十字军东征、大圣战或吉哈德，请抓住这个机会。派出一支军队，由你和任何你想改善对你好感的人领导。当你们到达时，你们都会得到一个特质（例如 , , or ），这个特质可以改善你们宗教的所有神职人员和其他拥有该特质的人的好感。为了这个目的，就算每支兵团非常小并立即被摧毁也没有关系，只要有足够的兵团让你想改善关系的每个人都能领导一个兵团。

对诸侯的教育

在没有御前会议的情况下，如果监护人是安于现状, 忠诚, 和 仁慈（见对监护人特质评估），那么诸侯最有可能成为快乐/忠诚的人。你可能会把有这些特质的女人嫁到你的宫廷然后让她们来培养未成年的封臣或他们的继承人。如果其他文化的臣子不喜欢你，不愿意接受你的文化的监护人，你仍然可以提供一个与他们文化相同并具有这些特征的监护人。

使用 "御前会议 "DLC的教育需要对每个孩子的个性给予更多的关注，并且让你对那些不是你的臣子的孩子的控制更少。碰巧是你的臣子的附庸的孩子应该接受谦逊教育焦点。由你的臣子教育的附庸的孩子，如果他们的主子选择了一些危险的东西，如骄傲或斗争，则可以转到传统的重点。

在青少年时期，有三种干预措施可以直接减少派系主义： to , to , and to .。此外，有两项干预措施可以避免不良特征： to （避免⅓ 欺骗）和 to （避免⅓ 野心勃勃）。在青春期晚期，一个拥有12+外交能力的监护人有⅓ 的机会鼓励孩子成为 ，这使其派系倾向减半。

培养你的继承人

主条目 教育 or 教育（御前会议DLC）

一些好的特质可以大大改善诸侯的好感度，以降低叛乱的几率并增加剩余诸侯能提供的征召兵。

如果没有协约，你应该自己培养你的继承人，让你在他们的整个童年时期做出重要的选择。追求能增加封臣好感的个性特征, , , , and 。反过来说，也要避免一些不好的特征，如 等，这些特征会降低封臣的好感。

根据你选择继承人的方式，你可能有太多的潜在继承人，无法亲自教育他们。在这种情况下，如果没有 "协约"，最好的监护人特质是, , , , and .。

一旦你的继承人成年，你可能有机会让他们拥有十字军的特性。

利用法理同化

试着让邻近的公国在法理上并入到你的王国，或将王国同化到你的帝国。虽然这需要很长的时间才能看到效果，但它可以大大增加你从诸侯国筹集的征召兵，同时减少诸侯国的独立派系倾向。

然而，同化会增加选举君主制中选帝侯的数量，并可能使选举更难控制。考虑改变继承法或让你的王朝落地，以便他们控制许多选举人头衔。

公国同化到附庸持有的王国中，也会赋予附庸权力。如果你的附庸一开始就有一个很大的法理王国，这就更危险了。

提升特定封臣的好感

有时候一场派系叛乱再所难免。这时候你要掌握政治的精髓，拉一批打一批。要学会分化对手。你可以有针对的选择其中一部分诸侯国成为突破口，拉他们的好感。

货币贿赂

除非你真的想让某人造反，否则通常情况下，贿赂他们比粉碎他们的叛乱要好。如果你有较高的外交属性，货币贿赂就会很有效。

由于货币贿赂的成本与受贿者的收入成正比，所以它们最好用于权力/收入比高的臣子。

贪婪度高的角色对礼物的反应更好。寻找具有的臣子。

荣誉头衔

你有数量有限的荣誉头衔。一般来说，这些头衔应该给强大的臣子。然而，有些荣誉头衔有特殊的机制，值得考虑。

如果你的捧杯人或品酒师对你有负面意见，并且满足任何一项（15+外交、15+阴谋、, or ），他们就可以毒死你。

你的指定摄政者会得到巨大的舆论支持，但关键是他们既能干又忠诚（对你和你的继承人）。如果你的继承人是成年人，你可能会希望他们被指定为摄政者，这只是为了每月的威望。

如果你希望长命百岁，你的宫廷医师（死神索命DLC）最好是有能力且忠诚的。

指挥官头衔

指挥官的小头衔只给+5的意见，但与荣誉头衔不同的是，它可以重新分配而不会激怒任何人。

如果有一个你不想在战斗中死去的臣子，你可以把他们从他们所领导的任何军队侧翼解雇，或者暂时让他们不做指挥官。

内阁职位

让一个臣子在你的议会中任职，可以增加+10的好感。这也会使他们从看到你的 "国家外交 "转为看到你的 "个人外交"，如果你的个人外交技能很高的话，这将是对好感的巨大提升。

分配议会职位在 "御前会议 "DLC中变得尤为重要。你最有权势的臣子希望在议会中占有一席之地，如果他们有资格但没有任职，那么他们的意见将是-40。根据你的法律，议会成员可能被禁止加入派别。然而，"御前会议 "也使得你的议员不仅要有能力，而且要按你希望的方式进行内阁投票。

转封封臣

转封封臣可以让公爵高兴。在几种情况下建议这样做。

• 伯爵是一个派系的成员。即使公爵也是派系成员，你也减少了派系的总权力：伯爵可以征召他的整个征召兵，但公爵只能召一部分。
• 伯爵在法律上是公爵的附庸。这将永久消除公爵对你的 "渴望控制<伯爵领>的-25 "好感，此外还增加了临时的 "+10转封封臣 "好感。
• 你已经超过了你的直属封臣上限。

委托监护人

将孩子或孙子送去由臣子（或其臣子）教育，会使臣子的意见增加+10，持续11年。

让臣子控制你的孩子并没有直接的危险（只是你没办法对你孩子的监护人直接宣战），但你可能要留意流行病是否威胁到他们的位置。

Managing factions

Even if you follow the advice above, you may get dangerous factions, especially in the aftermath of succession. You can take additional steps specifically to suppress factions.

Marry your vassals

Marrying within the realm can create non-aggression pacts with vassals, preventing them from joining factions. In particular, arranging a marriage or betrothal automatically creates a NAP as long as each spouse is closely related to the interacting rulers. These NAPs can be voluntarily renewed in subsequent generations as long as the new rulers are still close relatives of the married/betrothed couple.

Rulers with large families (e.g. from concubines or seduction) will be able to form more pacts. Muslims have an advantage in that polygamy lets them form pacts through their secondary wives directly, as well as through their many children.

There are several downsides to this strategy.

• Depending on the circumstances of the marriage, it can give a vassal's successors claims on liege titles.
• Repeated intermarriage risks .
• You cannot revoke titles from vassals you have a NAP with, even if they become traitors (e.g. if they rebel due to failed imprisonment).This can be mitigated by an indefinite stay in the dungeon, forcing a regency until the vassal's heir inherits.

Make vassals unable to join factions

Even with low opinion, there are several ways to make your vassals ineligible to join factions:

• Send your spymaster to prevent factions.
• Grant independence, especially to vassals outside your capital empire (who barely provide any troops even when opinion is high). Of course, if your aim is to achieve de jure shift, this option is not attractive.
• Transfer them under a vassal of higher rank.
• Arrest individual vassals. There are many ways to justify arrest, including catching the vassal leading a plot or refusing to stop backing a plot. If a vassal esapes arrest, they will rebel, but this can be useful as it allows you to revoke a title safely and without angering other vassals.
• With Way of Life, you can use the intrigue focus to fabricate arrest reasons, imprison them directly, or discourage them from joining factions.
• With Conclave, you can give powerful vassals council positions (or make your competent vassals powerful). They will not be able to join factions while the council is content and able to vote on war declarations (unless you are tribal or nomadic).

Watch for vassals who are in factions despite high opinion. They might have been coerced into the faction by the leader; you can confirm this suspicion by checking their opinion of the leader. You can solve this by removing the leader from the faction in any way.

Scatter the demands

If your faction members cannot unite behind a single demand, they will be unable to issue a strong ultimatum.

• A diverse set of vassals may be unable to agree on a single claimant.
• If you have multiple kingdoms or empires, vassals might be unable to agree on which title should have lowered crown authority, a new succession law, or a new ruler. However, multiple titles prevent de jure shifts and causes vassals to desire the extra titles, resulting in reduced opinion.

Avoid providing an opportunity by keeping vassals busy

Faction leaders cannot issue ultimatums while they are direct participants in war. If they're busy, try to keep them busy.

Furthermore, depending on the type of faction, AI vassals will not issue an ultimatum if their liege is already fighting in certain types of wars. By prolonging or chaining these wars, you can make AI faction leaders believe that never is a good time to issue their ultimatum.

For most factions: AI vassals will not issue an ultimatum if the liege is the primary defender in any war (except for Overthrow Ruler, e.g. from failed imprisonment or refused revocation). Furthermore, they will not issue an ultimatum if the liege is the primary attacker in certain wars that would be sure to strengthen the liege: any invasion, holy war (other than Pagan holy war or Buddhist minor holy war), or personal claim (so including "claim all" but not "claim for other").

For claimant factions: ???

For independence factions: no ultimatums if the liege is defending in certain types of religious wars, or same religion as liege who is attacking an infidel.

Consider giving into minor demands

Sometimes, vassals will demand something that you don't really mind giving them.

Demand	Likely to repeat?	Other benefits for ruler	Concerns
Gavelkind succession	Impossible	+5 opinion from all vassals. +30% demesne limit.	Weakening of demesne; potential succession wars
Elective succession	Impossible	+10 from non-dynastic vassals. Lets you more or less select your heir, with moderate risk.	Risk of dynasty losing primary title
Lower crown authority (Without Conclave)	Lower priority at each step	Higher opinion	Loss of privileges and lowered minimum levies from vassals.
Increased council power (With Conclave)	Lower priority at each step	With voting on wars, non-nomadic, non-tribal council members cannot join factions	Less freedom in dealing with rebellions and aftermath; no control over which two laws will be passed beyond the first two.

Reasons to create duke-tier vassals

As a king or emperor, there are several additional but less obvious benefits to creating and giving away duke-tier titles with counts below them, rather than just trying to directly rule over as many "powerless" counts as possible:

• Your vassal's AI vassals cannot plot an assassination against you unless they are heir or pretender to one of your titles, if you are their rival, or in a few other rare instances. All else being equal, it is also a lot harder for a few dukes to successfully pull off an existing assassination plot compared to many individual counts, simply because fewer characters contribute less overall plot power, which gives you ample time to discover and punish the plotters.

• You gain monthly prestige not just based on your directly held titles, but also for all the titles which your vassals hold.

• Dukes generate technology points while counts don't. This means that in the long term, your realm will fall behind in technology compared to other realms, if you don't let dukes generate their own tech points, especially since feudal realms depend on technology for their construction.

• When trying to convert provinces to your religion, each character tier can task their own chaplain with the proselytize mission. Imagine you had one county in your empire that has a different religion. It belongs to a count of your religion who is vassal to a duke of your religion who is vassal to a king of your religion who is vassal to you. You and each character tier below you may tell their chaplain to convert that province, making the conversion event much more likely to fire.

• Your vassal's vassal opinion of you doesn't matter with regards to how many levies you can get, only your direct vassal's opinion along with the corresponding laws.

Benefits of having as many individual rulers as possible in the hierarchy under you

Apart from just retaining more relative power in comparison to your direct vassals, there are additional benefits:

• Your realm grows richer faster since two counts in two counties can build more buildings faster than one person with two counties could due to events and mechanics that generate wealth "out of thin air" for each individual ruler (like for example the "collect taxes" mission for stewards).

• It vastly increases the number of individual courts in your realm, which increases the pool of potentially useful people you can draw from for your own purposes by either inviting them or marrying them, or by granting them titles in newly conquered realms.

• If you revoke the duchy title from a duke with several counts under him, you can just grant the duchy to one of his counts instead, making the troublesome former duke your vassal's vassal. This neutralizes him as a threat, while simultaneously making the new duke happy about their newly-gained title.

Disadvantages of splitting the realm down to counts (rogue edit)

In my experience the above might actually NOT be a good advice.

• AI is notoriously bad at managing money. While in theory two counts in two counties can build faster, in practice they do the opposite. Did you ever notice how even an AI that is richer that the player often has a less developed demesne than the player? That is because AI often wastes money, and the more of them there are the more money they'll waste.

• While levies calculations are weird, taxes calculations are pretty straightforward. Barons pay to counts, counts pay to dukes, dukes pay to kings and kings pay to emperors and every vassal in that chain takes a cut. Let's assume, for simplicity's sake, that all taxes are set to 50% (which is a rather generous assumption). If your direct vassal is a duke that holds all the 5 counties in his duchy himself then you'll get: 25% of the income of all baron tier vassals under him (let's assume it's 5 temples and 5 cities) and 50% of the income of all his holdings (5 castles). If however he only holds one county and the rest are held by counts under him you would get 12.5% of the baron tier vassals in that land (4 temples 4 cities), and 25% of all the holdings held by those counts ( 4 castles), 25% from the barons directly under the duke (1 temple, 1 city) and 50% of his holdings (1 castle). Essentially your "cut" of the profits from those lands dropped by 40% of what it was. Now, theoretically, those cuts don't vanish and should still head towards improving the land, but in practice they'll go towards buying ego-boosting paintings, and bribing nobodies to decrease council authority of a county (what's the count even going to do with that authority of his? revoke a city?). Wherever else it goes, it will certainly NOT go towards improvement of YOUR demesne.

• Having many courts in your realm isn't even remotely as useful as it sounds. It's nice for conversions (every court has a council), but other than that all it gets you is a flood of mostly useless characters and their shenanigans. Expect more secret religions and devil worshippers to deal with and more migrants when those courts fall apart (which is, generally, NOT good for your court).

• One of the four sources of technology spreading is demesne spread. No demesne means no demesne spread. While in theory all those separated counts could go and steal tech, and as a result give your realm one heck of a tech advancement speed, in practice they don't. Tech from your dukes will still spread, but it would spread faster if your dukes held their duchies.

• While it's tempting to get rid of a troublesome duke by making one of his former subjects the next duke, doing so would switch the tech "engine" of the duchy from a county that lead to the county that was being lead essentially wasting progress.

For most of the above mentioned concerns splitting the realm to the single-handedly held single duchies is the optimal solution. Such dukes generate tech points, accelerate their demesne catching up, consolidate the right amount of money (large enough to actually build something, not large enough to start throwing mercs around left and right), and are not big enough to pose a serious threat without many of them "ganging up" on you, which should not happen unless you are disliked by the realm in general (which is not a situation in which you can afford to be for long regardless of how powerless your vassals are).
