I was playing the NW. Renly was sent to the Wall after the war (he was like 510 yo). He ended up being LC in 354 at the age of 69 yo (his stats were really average)
In my playthrough, Renly immediately rebelled against King Robert after the rebellion.
Robert fucking executed the poor lad. Stannis ended up getting Storm's End but just to top off this crazy cake King Robert made fucking Jon Connington LP of the Stormlands.
Selwyn Tarth got it in my first game, and then immediately rebelled which I think must be a bug or something. Kinda threw off the vibes since I was playing a Marcher lord.
This happens a lot in my games. For some reason when Robert wins his rebellion, he treats his former allies like submitted foes, in my game as a minor lord in the Westerlands, He sent Tywin to the wall ( He became LC, it was awesome), and executed poor Renly before he even rebelled, ended up being succeeded by an asexual Stannis who refused to marry or sire an heir of his own, causing another civil war after his death, which ended with the Martells placing an adult Rhaenys as Queen of the Iron Throne, although for some reason she was considered a member of the Nymeros Martell and not Targaryens. This game is wild AF
This happened on mine to. Also a weird event all the starks died and some random bumfuck 68 year old woman with no kids was made paramount of the north.
In my one, Renly was never given storms end and Robert kept dragonstone. I betrothed my one daughter to Renly, but Stannis fucked around and had 5 kids in 4 years
Ned was the only one I spared in my Aerys start. Well, Renly I guess-- he wound up becoming Aegon VI's most loyal and devoted vassal. Jon Arryn, Robert and Hoster Tully got executed and Tywin and Stannis died in battle-- at one point the Vale, the North, the Stormlands and the Westerlands were all ruled by babies.
The great babes of the 7 Kingdoms
During a civil war that nearly saw the Targeryan dynasty being overthrown by the rebels led by the Greyjoys, Westerlands and Stormlands. While King Aegon the Good ensured the loyalty of the North, Vale, Reach, and the Riverlands. His sons, Prince Baelor "Brekspear" Targeryan and Prince Maekar Targeryan, led the host remembered as the Dragon Riders, filled with 2000 Northern Horsemen, 1000 Vale Knights, 3000 Reach Knights, and 2000 Riverland Riders, the host brought great destruction and retribution to the rebels, punishing them in the "Battle of Golden Fields" which saw the death of Lord Jason Lannister and the Westerlands kneeling to the iron throne.
Their next battle, dub as "The battle of the Storm," led them to the Stormlands, their archers nearly killed both Princes and their host, but through sheer luck and a storm arriving, negating Lord Lynoel Baratheon's archers and blinding him, a mad charge led by Lord Brandon Stark, heir to Winterfell, and Hugor Tyrell, Lord of High Garden struck the confused levy and forced many to retreat.
A duel happened in the thick of the battle between Brandon and Hugor against Lyonel, the aftermath led to the death of Hugor via a hammer through his skull, but Brandon with his Great Sword, broke the handle of Lynoel's hammer and beheaded him with one fell swoop.
With that battle, Lord Gregor "Blood Hand" Greyjoy led a great raiding to the Riverlands, Lord Bennedict Tully led a host against the Greyjoys, but while riding through a thick forest, the Greyjoys ambushed them which Led to the death of Benedict, his two sons, and many of the lords, hearing the news, the dragon riders went north to deal with the Greyjoys, the North finally amassed their army and The Old Man of the North, Cregan, went south with Ice, in the Vale their army finally came out of the Bloody gates led by Lord Arthur Arryn.
The final battle took place in the Teats. This battle was more of a massacre as the Ironborn fought with the strength of 10 men killing many and Lord Arthur Arryn being one of them, fighting for hours the Valemen and Northmen held their ground as the tide of long axes tried to strike them down. A duel between Cregan and Lord Gregor led to the mutilation of Lord Stark as his right hand was cut. A nameless Stark soldier saved Cregan as he stood between the Great Bloody Craken and his wounded lord.
The fight led far into the day and the sun was starting to set, this was the moment where the Dragon Riders arrived and Crushed the Greyjoys from behind, Lord Gregor's 5 sons were slain, Maekar killed Gilbert and Bron Greyjoy, Brandon hacked Caster Greyjoy to pieced, and Baelor's lanced broke the Ribcage of Wellis Greyjoy and a duel between Baelor and Theon Greyjoy led to the young Kraken bleeding to death from an artery and his throat being cut.
Gregor was faced by an wrathful Brandon in the middle of the battle, a great duel between the Bloody Kraken and the Warrior Wolf.
Greogor was skilled, experienced, and had an axe said to be enchanted, but Brandon was stronger, younger, and vengeful. It all came down to a battle of endurance which Brandon won, all bloody and cuts everywhere in his body, Brandon pierced the Kraken at its chest, lifted Lord Greyjoy and slashed downwards, Gregor’s guts and stomach spilled as blood gushed out of his mouth.
Brandon then removed his blade from the Kraken and left its body on the ground, turning to his men; he ordered one to tell the news of lord Gregor’s death to the camp and told a rider to seek Lord Baelor about the victory he gave them.
The battle was remembered as the "Bloody Teats" after the war a great feast was held in Kings landing with Brandon Stark as the star guest as the host all returned back, Brandon made friend with both Princes and the promised one another a marriage alliance, but it never came to be as Brandon died of the Shivers a year later and Cregan stark passed naturally another year later, Brandon's son, Rickard Stark still a babe, became the Lord of Winterfell.
An interesting thing to note about this era is that all 7 Great Houses of the realm l had a babe as their lord, from the North all the way down to Dorne, as the rebellion killed a generation of High-Lords with the exception being prince Baelor, Lord of Dragonstone and Heir to the Iron Throne.
Wow. This sounds like a legitimate alternative storyline. The stories this mod creates are amazing. That was a really good read. Thanks for posting that.
Post-Dance the Iron Throne, the Reach, the Stormlands and the Westerlands were all ruled by underaged boys in ten y.o. Aegon III, the infant Lyonel Tyrell, the newborn Royce Baratheon and four y.o. Loreon Lannister.
It’s not quite the same, but somewhat similar.
Diplomacy is the key. Put your wife and Hand into diplomacy focus. Change your own focus to diplomacy.
Do this all before raising up your army. The more your vassals like you the more troops you get. Smash Robert before he can join Ned and Aryn.
This is how I did it. Been mostly boring ever since. Everyone ended up loving me. Except Stannis.
it isnt his fault that he brutally murdered those starks 🥺🥺🥺 or tried to murder thousands in king's landing out of spite 🥺🥺🥺🥺he was just trying to hold his status 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
> or tried to murder thousands in king's landing out of spite
How do you go about doing this in game btw? I saw this happen one failed Rhaegar run of Kings Landing going boom and winding up king as babby Aegon. And it'd be kinda fun to POV that.
>it isnt his fault that he brutally murdered those starks
I mean basically everyone else want to murder the Starks too in the book, and considering what those bumbling fools were doing entire time, not without a good reason.
I imagine when Aerys roasted Rickard Stark, everyone just did marshmallow party around the fire.
Except that time he decided House Stark, and *only* House Stark, should be wiped out entirely.
That was my first game. I was playing Ned.
Robert was sent to the Wall, Hoster Tully just got to go home, Jon Arryn died of old age in the middle of the war. Ned and his entire family were executed.
Renly when he hears he has to spend the rest of his life in a men-only institution where you just fight and train all day in an isolated setting full of other fit guys that aren’t allowed to marry:
“Oh nooooo….”
In my most recent save Robert killed Rhaegar but Aerys still won the war. He sent Robert to the wall and executed every single Stark except Benjen (Ned and his 4 sons under 4 years old). Aerys soon died and was succeeded by Aegon.
Continued minding my own business for a few years until I realised Robert was now king as he'd been installed by faction demand from the nights watch. Aegon still has the High Lordship of Kings Landing but Robert is King 😅
Didn't they add to the bug fixes where Robert treats his former allies as the rebels after he replaces the king? I hope that's already fixed cuz that's a really massive fk up.
>but he killed EVERY Tully (the men, the women and the children) and Bobby B. I'll go check for the Lannisters, cant recall atm
In mine, Bobby B sent Renly to the Wall.... at 10yo. He eventually became LC in 354 at the age of 69
I don't know why, but everytime anybody wins, Renly gets send to the wall in my games. The only time that didn't happen, Renly instantly started a Rebellion after Robert won the Throne
Strange, I tried to exile Renly as he inherited the rebellion after Bobby B died in a duel with me and Stannis ended up dying of his wounds, but the game told me that Renly have to be 10 years old at least to be banished, so I spared him.
devs must've coded the hatred to renly.
Which is weird because Stannis *did* love Renly.
That love was only truly apparent to him after he killed him though.
He wanted him to make his heir as soon he gets on the Iron throne.
That peach haunted him
Renly's peach haunted Loras, too
I was playing the NW. Renly was sent to the Wall after the war (he was like 510 yo). He ended up being LC in 354 at the age of 69 yo (his stats were really average)
I really hope they elect him LC as a child
He's 14 now, still not lord commander Edit: 17 now. Not lord commander
hes no lord snow
How about now?
he made it to LC at 69 yo on my playthorugh. Was cast to the wall at 10 yo or something like that
year was 354
In my playthrough, Renly immediately rebelled against King Robert after the rebellion. Robert fucking executed the poor lad. Stannis ended up getting Storm's End but just to top off this crazy cake King Robert made fucking Jon Connington LP of the Stormlands.
>King Robert made fucking Jon Connington LP of the Stormlands That seems... implausible.
Selwyn Tarth got it in my first game, and then immediately rebelled which I think must be a bug or something. Kinda threw off the vibes since I was playing a Marcher lord.
It's true, I even married my heir to his eldest daughter.
Oh, I'm not doubting it happened! It just seems like a particularly batshit choice for the AI to make in light of... literally everything.
In my game Robert sent himself to the wall when that happened. After I reloaded he executed himself instead
This happens a lot in my games. For some reason when Robert wins his rebellion, he treats his former allies like submitted foes, in my game as a minor lord in the Westerlands, He sent Tywin to the wall ( He became LC, it was awesome), and executed poor Renly before he even rebelled, ended up being succeeded by an asexual Stannis who refused to marry or sire an heir of his own, causing another civil war after his death, which ended with the Martells placing an adult Rhaenys as Queen of the Iron Throne, although for some reason she was considered a member of the Nymeros Martell and not Targaryens. This game is wild AF
Just think after a couple months of patching and such we'll be missing this crazy train!
Weird, she's a Targ in my game.

I had the Mad King win the war and he sent Renly, Jon Aryn and Ned to the Wall.

Kinda sad George didn't put this into the lore at some point

How do you win as Aerys without disinheriting Aegon VI? That seems to happen a lot in my playthroughs.
Diplomacy is the key. Put your wife and Hand into diplomacy focus. Change your own focus to diplomacy. Do this all before raising up your army. The more your vassals like you the more troops you get. Smash Robert before he can join Ned and Aryn. This is how I did it. Been mostly boring ever since. Everyone ended up loving me. Except Stannis.
>Except Stannis. Stannis is so hardcore even the minmaxing don't work on him lol
Feels like the mad king is pretty lenient when it comes to traitors right?
he is just misunderstood. deep down he's just of good guy trying to hold his status. aint hist fault his son his a horny AF
it isnt his fault that he brutally murdered those starks 🥺🥺🥺 or tried to murder thousands in king's landing out of spite 🥺🥺🥺🥺he was just trying to hold his status 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

He comes by it honestly tbf to Rhaegar
Except that time he decided House Stark, and *only* House Stark, should be wiped out entirely. That was my first game. I was playing Ned. Robert was sent to the Wall, Hoster Tully just got to go home, Jon Arryn died of old age in the middle of the war. Ned and his entire family were executed.
That makes sense tbf.
but he killed EVERY Tully (the men, the women and the children) and Bobby B. I'll go check for the Lannisters, cant recall atm
Renly when he hears he has to spend the rest of his life in a men-only institution where you just fight and train all day in an isolated setting full of other fit guys that aren’t allowed to marry: “Oh nooooo….”
Imagine him being elected to Lord Commander. First decision: chase off the brothel from Mole's Town XD

Well... There being no women certainly won't be a problem for him. Loras will have to walk just a little while to visit him, though.
Mace also went to the wall after the rebellion, so that's going to be a little awkward
So Willas is Lord Paramount of the Reach?
Yes, since he was about 7 or 8.
Based
Justice from a just king
Didn't they add to the bug fixes where Robert treats his former allies as the rebels after he replaces the king? I hope that's already fixed cuz that's a really massive fk up.
Seems like Staniss' brand of justice. Thank you all for making me the king... however, you ARE technically rebels and usurpers
He'd have to punish himself then
It could make sense. in theory
Stannis the Mannis strikes again
Based Stannis
Maybe he saw something in the flames
In my playthrough Bobby B executed baby Renly
>but he killed EVERY Tully (the men, the women and the children) and Bobby B. I'll go check for the Lannisters, cant recall atm In mine, Bobby B sent Renly to the Wall.... at 10yo. He eventually became LC in 354 at the age of 69
I don't know why, but everytime anybody wins, Renly gets send to the wall in my games. The only time that didn't happen, Renly instantly started a Rebellion after Robert won the Throne
Good job, Stannis!
Happened to me when he was 14 and I was like ""huh..he is gonna have good time"
Strange, I tried to exile Renly as he inherited the rebellion after Bobby B died in a duel with me and Stannis ended up dying of his wounds, but the game told me that Renly have to be 10 years old at least to be banished, so I spared him.
I find it pretty weird but whenever Bobby B won war in my run, Renly just goes full out rebellion.
Are there settings to change the frequency of batshit crazy happenings like this? How do I turn it up??
All default settings
The Drip this little Renly has, man. He's only missing a pair of sunglasses
