However, a few of these are DLC-only, and for a beginner, I don’t really recommend any of them anyway.
The game does have some options for you, including interesting historical bookmarks and the characters who are most relevant and enjoyable in that time period. Even without any of the DLC there are potentially hundreds of starting characters to choose from across a 400 year timespan, before even including non-Christians and 2 additional, pre-1066 start dates. Thanks to Crusader Kings 2’s character-based play, there are plenty of options open to you, from mighty Emperors down to measly provincial Counts and everything in between. However, if you’ve already read it and just can’t wait to dive in (my definite recommendation) then you might be looking for advice on the best place to start. Of course, the advice in that guide is very basic, and I intend to flesh it out with followup articles to help you make your way through a game without complete cluelessness at a later date. It goes over the most basic mechanics that will help you to create a successful first game, from which you can self-learn everything else you need to know.
