Paradox has just lifted the veil on the exciting new expansion for *Crusader Kings 3*, centered around nomadic rulers. This upcoming DLC will introduce a groundbreaking governance system tailored specifically for nomadic peoples, accompanied by a novel currency known as "herd." This herd currency will play a pivotal role in determining the ruler's authority and will intricately affect various aspects of gameplay. From bolstering military strength and shaping cavalry composition to influencing lord-subject dynamics, the herd currency will be at the heart of your nomadic empire's prosperity.
Nomadic chieftains thrive on mobility, and this expansion ensures that constant relocation remains central to their lifestyle. The movements of these chieftains will be driven by multiple factors, including negotiations with local populations or the more forceful approach of displacing them from their lands. This dynamic adds a layer of strategic depth, as you navigate the challenges of nomadic rule.
A standout feature of the expansion is the introduction of special yurts, which rulers can transport much like adventurers on the move. These yurts are not just homes but can be upgraded with new components that offer a range of benefits, enhancing your nomadic kingdom's capabilities.
Additionally, the DLC will introduce iconic yurt towns, which nomadic kings can carry with them, mirroring the concept of adventurer camps. These mobile settlements can be upgraded to include various structures, each serving distinct functions. Whether it's for defense, trade, or cultural enrichment, these yurt towns will be vital to your nomadic civilization's growth and sustainability.
