From the Wikipedia I found, looks like he should be the Baron of Bamburg in Northumbria (which Aella owns 'temporarily' due to impending Heathen Army), or should be in Derby. Though the steps would be quite different if you wanted to make him a Baron instead. These should also work for "Uhtred of Bebbanburg", Marshall of Sjaelland (867 start, ID 217293). Swear fealty to Charles if you like, but be weary of the chance your title gets revoked for Paganism. When this succeeds, you control the host levy! Both worked for me, though the latter was my first success and worked twice I only did the pause version once. If pause – switch – advance ~2 days via space bar – now you can interact = still fails, try switching while time is advancing rather than during a pause. If the game was paused when you switched to him and you try to interact with the troops, it will likely quit out. “play 242” and do nothing else but press space bar / advance time. You CAN start playing as him, but you have to do so carefully making a wrong move will quit out the entire game to your desktop.į. When the event activates and Hrolfr gets his host troops, save game. In order for this to work, you have to be playing as the Count of Rouen.Į. Trigger the claimant adventure “event TOG.1200 242”. Then as the Count (168171) declare war for independence, surrender as the King (90104), then go back and accept as the Count.Ĭ.

This is a series of steps: As his Duke (“Play 168246”) transfer vassalage to King Charles (right click Charles and transfer). Give Hrolfr a claim to Rouen “claim c_arques 242”ī. To do it via console, “religion catholic”.Ģ) The much more complicated way (but you get to fight as Hrolfr) that won't work in Ironman.Ī. Problem is, via the intrigue tab it will cost 1000 prestige that you may not have. Might want to become Christian ASAP to avoid having your title stripped.

Skol! Or is it voila now that you’re French?. If you want Charles to be his direct liege - pause & switch to his Duke-liege “play 168246” and transfer vassalage to King Charles. In this case, you may not need as strong of a character if it's timed just right.Į. Optionally, wait until France is weak from raids and wars to ensure victory. Normal marriage does NOT seem to persuade him like I used to do).Ĭ.ĝeclare war against King Charles for a county conquest of Rouen (aka Arques). Invite Hrolfr to your court (if he won’t come even with a gift, just bring up the console using ` key and type “move 242” to move him to your court.

Play as a strong (large levy / event troop) Norse King (e.g., Bagsecg of Jylland has large levy and doesn’t start out at war, Haraldr Fairhair same, Bjorn, Halfdan, Ivar, Sigurdr, etc.). Also, most of this (minus making Charles a direct liege) could be done in Ironman without console commands (IF Hrolfr will come to your court).Ī. Obviously you could just "give_title c_arques 242" and be done, but where's the *fun* in that?ġ) The pseudo realistic / historic, also simplest, method where you must fight and win a battle against West Francia. IRL, he took over Rouen ~918 according to Wikipedia, so you can wait 50 years game time if you want :P But then the character ID numbers likely won't all match what I have here, so you'll have to utilize "charinfo 1". Must start 867: Hrolfr de Normandie is a courtier in Nidaros (aka Trondelag) county (de jure Norway).
