Welcome back, ruler!
We've all been there, haven't we? You're comfortably seated on your throne, just wanting to peacefully rule your kingdom, and then another rebellion comes around the corner. Or your offspring refuses to listen and just won't learn. That's where the new update to Crusader Kings III, Wards & Wardens, comes in handy!
In this article, we'll take you on a journey through the enhancements of this update and show you how you, as a ruler (or guardian), can make the most out of your situation.
The Highlights of the Update
From new events and decisions to improved AI settings, the update has a lot to offer. But let's take a closer look.
Expansion Features
- Over a hundred new events and event chains expand youth, guardianship, education, and much more - for young lords, parents, and knowledge-hungry rulers alike! Many game systems, both new and old, now have unique events and content.
- New interactions and decisions allow you to take a more active role in child rearing!
- With less than ideal education, you will now want to visit universities! You can now travel to any location with a university or cathedral.
Free Features
- A new ruler system allows for the exchange of hostages.
- The new Perpetual Hook type falls between Weak and Strong Hooks.
- A new adoption interaction allows certain rulers to take in new members into their family and dynasty.
Balance Changes
Of particular note is the improved AI. AI builders are now less interested in buying Men-at-Arms. Cautious AIs are willing to spend a bit more and are very inclined to reach their comfortable minimum level. This means more challenges (and fun!) for you as a player.
Bug Fixes
Synchronization errors in multiplayer mode are now a thing of the past! The developers have fixed this annoying bug, so you can now play with your friends without interruptions.
Conclusion
The Wards & Wardens Update brings a breath of fresh air to your royal duties in Crusader Kings III. With the new features, you can dive even deeper into the Middle Ages and shape your realm according to your vision. So grab your Steam Key, take the throne, and show everyone who's in charge!
