Step 1
Once you load up the game go to New Game and select the year 867 and click the “Play as any ruler in 867 in the bottom left of the screen. See below:

Step 2
Now you will need to go Italy and select the ruler King Louis II ‘the Younger’ of Italy age 32 when the screen switches to the live map. Before moving on make sure that you have went into the Game Rules section and Enabled Ironman and the difficulty is Normal or above.

Step 3
