Crusader Kings 3

Crusader Kings 3 – a global strategy that significantly expands the capabilities of the previous part. Crusader Kings 3 covers the time period from 1066 to 1453. Unlike the second part, you won’t be able to start the game at any time. The new map stretches from Spain to Burma and Mongolia, and from Scandinavia to Central Africa. The scale of the game is quadrupled. The points on the map represent not only counties, but also baronial possessions.

The game got rid of many types of troops: Muslims, pagans, nomads and many others. However, now all available heroes and fighter classes have much greater detail and have many additional abilities. Models of heroes are now represented by full-fledged three-dimensional models, instead of portraits. There are 5 lifestyles available for each character, each of which has 3 development branches. New stress mechanics have been introduced. When you have to choose an action that contradicts the hero’s beliefs, he may begin to stress, which significantly reduces his concentration. The religion system in Crusader Kings III is represented by heresy mechanics, including cannibalism or the ordination of women.

Side branches of dynasties are available. This means that multiple family houses can exist within dynasties. For example, the Yorks and Lancasters have side branches of the Plantagenets. Armies consist of recruits and professional warriors, which may include crossbowmen, cavalry, etc. You decide which fighters to hire. Heroes who have high performance and characteristics will be able to become knights. They join the main army as powerful infantry, increasing the strength of the army by 10 units. 20 experienced knights will be equal to 200 ordinary soldiers. A system of love connections has been introduced, which will greatly affect the gameplay. All the player’s achievements will be displayed in a separate table, which will allow you to track the correctness of your decisions.
