Paradox Interactive has revealed initial details about their forthcoming Crusader Kings 3 expansion, centered around nomadic rulers. This DLC introduces a revolutionary governance system specifically designed for nomadic societies. A new currency, "herd," will be central to a ruler's power, influencing military might, cavalry unit composition, relationships with vassals, and other core gameplay mechanics.
The nomadic lifestyle necessitates constant movement. A chieftain's migrations will be dynamically shaped by interactions with settled populations, allowing for negotiation or forceful displacement.
Furthermore, rulers will command transportable yurts, similar to adventurer camps. These yurts can be upgraded with various components offering distinct advantages.
The expansion will also feature iconic yurt towns, mirroring the adventurer camp mechanic. These mobile settlements can be improved with additional structures, each providing unique benefits.
