Paradox Interactive has revealed the first details of their upcoming Crusader Kings 3 expansion, focusing on the unique challenges and opportunities of nomadic rulers. This DLC introduces a revolutionary governance system specifically designed for nomadic gameplay. Central to this system is a new currency: "herd." The size of your herd directly impacts your authority, influencing military strength, cavalry composition, the relationships with your subjects, and other crucial aspects of gameplay.
The nomadic lifestyle necessitates constant movement. Players will navigate a dynamic world, making decisions about how to interact with settled populations – through negotiation or forceful displacement. This strategic element adds a new layer of complexity to the game.
Furthermore, nomadic chieftains will command mobile yurts, functioning similarly to adventurer camps. These transportable homes can be upgraded with various components, providing significant benefits and strategic advantages.
Finally, the expansion introduces iconic yurt towns that travel with the nomadic kings, mirroring the functionality of adventurer camps. These mobile settlements can be enhanced with additional structures, offering a range of improvements and options to customize your nomadic empire.
