My HRE game has recently culminated with me finally getting primogeniture succession through, after several successive kings working to centralize my massive, blob-like empire. Now it's just a matter of relaxing and making nice marriage alliances as I work toward aggressively conquering Scandinavia and assimilating the remaining independent Christians through more diplomatic means.
In my Catholic Byzantium game, I'm relaxing as well. Had a pretty talented Emperor die suddenly, but the transition to his son was without any hiccups. My focus in this game is going to be to recreate the Roman Empire, so it's just a matter of picking and choosing when to strike at my weaker neighbors in the Balkans and Italy. The muslims might be a little rougher to deal with, but my granddad grabbed a duchy after a war with the neighboring Muslim empire, which means it can be done.
