“Nobody outside of Paradox has attempted to take the fundamentals of Crusader Kings' design and push in a different direction. It's a bold gambit from Resistance Games, and I'm fascinated to see how it all pans out.”

  • Manage battles through the Real-time tactical unit management system.
  • New titles cannot be solely achieved on the battlefield, but through a delicate balance of diplomacy, cunning intrigue, and prosperous trade

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

We want to emphasize that both human-art and AI-generated content are used in the event illustrations. At the time of writing this (pre-beta), some of the illustrations in the game are still early experiments and, as such, treated as placeholders. As artists, we fully understand that AI-generated imagery is a controversial topic at the moment. We felt that by using generated art, in addition to our own art, we could create a much more vivid and immersive experience for the player. We are fully open to discussing this further and elaborating on our approach.
