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, centered around a new currency: "herd." The size of your herd directly impacts your authority, influencing military strength, cavalry composition, relationships with your subjects, and other crucial aspects of your reign.
The nomadic lifestyle necessitates constant movement, and this expansion reflects that reality. Your decisions will shape your interactions with settled populations, allowing you to negotiate for passage or forcibly displace them to secure your grazing lands.
Furthermore, players will command mobile yurts, similar to adventurer camps, which can be upgraded with various components to provide significant benefits. These mobile homes are more than just shelter; they are the heart of your nomadic empire.
Finally, the expansion features iconic yurt towns that travel with the nomadic kings, mirroring the functionality of adventurer camps. These settlements can be upgraded with additional structures, providing a wide range of benefits and further enhancing the nomadic experience.
