Horse Lords annonsert til Crusader Kings II

Annonseringen av den åttende utvidelsen til Crusader Kings II, titulert Horse Lords, har avslørt at den neste oppdateringen vil sette deg på hesteryggen og la deg spille som ingen ringere en Khan.

Paradox Interactive avslørte at utvidelsen vil inneholde et endret grensesnitt, et utvidet kart og nye regler for byttehandel.

Innføringen av hester (og rytterne) sies å skape en ny opplevelse. Her er nyhetene som medfølger:

• Nomadic rule: Distinct from the tribal governments already in game, nomads need lots of space and resist the trappings of settlement
• Clan politics: Rule a clan within a nomadic tribe, split clans that get too large, fight for dominance, and proclaim feuds and blood oaths
• Muster Hordes: Raise vast armies of horsemen and archers, mobilizing your entire population to ride forth and conquer
• Silk Road: This rich trade network can bring great wealth to whomever controls the cities along the route - but it's especially ripe for pillaging.
• Larger Map: The Central Asian plains have been expanded
• Tributaries: New diplomatic relationship for nomad states forces defeated enemies to keep the Khan's coffers filled.
• Forts: build temporary fortifications to hold a province under your sway for just long enough for you to finish the war.
