Paradox Interactive has just lifted the veil on the much-anticipated expansion for *Crusader Kings 3*, shining a spotlight on the dynamic world of nomadic rulers. This upcoming DLC is set to revolutionize gameplay with a novel governance system tailored specifically for these nomadic peoples. Central to this system is a unique currency called "herd," which will not only reflect the ruler's authority but also significantly influence key gameplay aspects such as military strength, cavalry composition, and the intricate relationships between lords and their subjects.
Nomadic chieftains, true to their nature, thrive on mobility. Their constant relocations will be driven by a variety of factors, compelling them to either negotiate with local populations or, if necessary, to forcibly displace them. This adds a strategic layer to the game, as players will need to navigate these interactions skillfully to maintain their nomadic lifestyle.
Adding to the nomadic experience, rulers will have the ability to transport special yurts, reminiscent of the mobile homes of adventurers. These yurts can be upgraded with new components, each offering unique benefits that can enhance the ruler's capabilities and the overall effectiveness of their nomadic community.
A standout feature of this expansion is the introduction of iconic yurt towns. These mobile settlements, akin to adventurer camps, will be carried by nomadic kings as they traverse the map. Players can upgrade these towns to include a variety of structures, each serving different functions and further enriching the nomadic gameplay experience.
