Paradox Interactive has revealed initial details about their upcoming Crusader Kings 3 expansion, centered around nomadic rulers. This DLC introduces a novel governance system specifically designed for nomadic peoples, incorporating a new resource called "herd" that directly influences a ruler's power. The "herd" resource will significantly impact gameplay, affecting military might, cavalry unit composition, relationships with vassals, and other core mechanics.
The nomadic lifestyle necessitates constant movement, and this is reflected in the game. A chieftain's migrations will be determined by various factors, requiring them to either negotiate with settled populations or forcibly displace them.
Players will manage transportable yurts, similar to adventurer camps, which can be upgraded with various components offering distinct advantages.
Furthermore, the expansion includes iconic yurt towns that nomadic rulers can transport, mirroring the functionality of adventurer camps. These settlements can be upgraded with additional buildings, each providing unique benefits.
