The game map is about four times more detailed than the one in Crusader Kings II and slightly larger, incorporating Europe, Africa roughly as far south as the Equator, and Asia as far East as Tibet. Characters can make other characters from their court or realm with significant combat skills into powerful knights. Characters will need to hire men-at-arms in order to field higher-quality soldiers, such as crossbowmen and cavalry. Levies are represented primarily by low-quality infantry composed of peasants. The principal resource for interacting with religion mechanics is Piety, and a player with sufficient piety may choose to develop their own heresy, with the Tenets and Doctrines being chosen by the player. Religions have Tenets, which are bonuses given to all practitioners of that faith, and Doctrines, which deal with the religion's stances towards issues like homosexuality and female clergy. Players may undergo pilgrimages and wage holy wars, and entire religions can be called to arms in crusades or jihads. Leaders can advance their goals by warfare, diplomacy, or subterfuge. Religion and culture are both aspects of the game. Players' realms may have the feudal, tribal, or clan government types. Each lifestyle has three skill trees that allow characters to enhance skills related to that lifestyle. Characters are able to select one of five lifestyles to follow. Characters are able to frighten their vassals into staying loyal by increasing their Dread, which increases when the character performs malevolent actions, such as executing or torturing other characters. The game's genetics system allows characters to pass on some of their characteristics to their descendants. Making choices that go against a character's traits will increase that character's stress. As in Crusader Kings II, they have traits that affect their stats and behavior.

Ĭharacters have full-body, 3D-rendered character models instead of 2D portraits. For example, the heads of houses are responsible for legitimizing bastards. The heads of dynasties are able to use a new resource known as Renown to assert their control over their house.

ĭynasties can form cadet branches that have their own heads and act mostly independently from their parent dynasty. Overall, players develop a dynasty over the centuries, with the game ending in 1453. Upon the death or deposition of a player's character they continue to play as that character's heir. Players begin as a character in either 867 or 1066.
