I must have overlooked that. So how will this work exactly? Will I need a credit card? Needless to say I don't have one ... I am still a poor student... :D

It doesn't say that they will be playable, and I would assume not.

If it's not included in the game, you can be pretty sure there will be a user-made converter later on.

One bug that absolutely, positively, must be fixed is the one where your vassals suddenly become independent if the muslim-title-holder of what would be their liege (but obviously is not) is destroyed.

What's the big problem here? I'd rather have them fix the morale bug that ensures that once you start a war, you have to finish it without saving. Otherwise, if you load the savegame, your forces are all at zero morale :(

Well, one thing that I always wanted in CK is the ability to play as a muslim or pagan(mongols) country. I don't see why it is such a strange idea. Christian courts were not really that special when compared to islamic and even turko-mongolic tribal courts at the time. Hopefully the new expansion will allow us more freedom in this regard.

It would also be nice if the map stretches to the borders of india and china, though I don't think the map will be changed. As long as you have the extremely important eastern islamic cities in the game, like samarkand and bukhara, I'll be happy.

Blasphemy! Blasphemy!


The X-pack sounds brilliant as it is, I'm looking forward to the end of the Sheikdom of Praha and the beginning of real civil wars.

A map extension probably wouldn't happen, and its out of scope of the subject matter really..

Adding Greenland on the map would've been nice too, but I don't see that happening anytime. (mobilizable army of about 100 light infantry, I guess.)

Adding Muslim and Mongol factions requires an event system for them. A different one, incidentally, from the Catholic/Orthodox version, which is why they SHOULD NOT be made "officially" playable. Much of what goes on in CK is event driven. If you are a Sheik and all the same events fire for you as if you were the Duke of Orkney, what's the point in playing as a Sheik??? Unfortunately, I doubt Paradox has enough development resources to design another court event system from scratch.

Although, specifically for the Mongols, there is yet another reason - they're not a faction, they're a natural disaster ;)
