Deus Vult Expansion

[unmerged(1823)]

I guess the characters still are mainly predetemined in their stats, the only difference is that their value is revealed step by step and by events ?

no, they are not predetermined..

I love you, Paradox.

 

[Mowers]

Can I make two suggestions.

Play hammer of the scots and then a large game of blood royale.

Lots of inspiration to make CK fun.

I am quite happy to send my copies to the office.

If anyone cares, I'm pretty sure that the "+0" refers to EU style stability.

 

[Kurek]

no, they are not predetermined..

So this spells the end of the annoying game of spending bloody ages looking around various courts for brides with decent stats for breeding purposes? Or will the stats of the parents influence the potential stats of a child over the years, thus being a nice mix of the two extremes?

Will this be a stand alone expansion like Doomsday?

 

[unmerged(9599)]

Will this be a stand alone expansion like Doomsday?

already asked and answered the answer being no

 

[Veldmaarschalk]

Will this be a stand alone expansion like Doomsday?

No, you will need the original game.

Thanks. I'm sorry I didn't notice when the question was first asked.

One word:

:drool:

(if thats a word)

 

[Nikolai]

no, they are not predetermined..

So great stat parents aren't a guarantee for superhumans any longer? Great!

So in theory great stat parents and low stat parents have the same chances of giving a great stat child?

 

[Myth]

this is excellent

Id say good stats can give beneficial events in the raising of a child

 

[RELee]

Uh-oh.

Here I've been thinking to myself, "You've got a new truck. You need to buy a new house for your lovely bride. You're completely behind at work, needing to upgrade the anti-spam boxes and all the post office databases need a rebuild. You need to take care of real-life and let the games alone."

That's what I was thinking.

You KNOW what's going to happen. Yep. I'm gonna have to work like a dog so I can get everything done in August.

MAN! Am I gonna be tired or what?

Yes, that would be realistic of course, but histroy has clearly shown that genious doesn't lie purely in the genes. I don't like the superhuman breeding and subsequent MM hell bride finding for gameplay purposes either.

I don't know if that is what they implied. I'm assuming that so much is still genetic and and so much is still from child raising and education events?

 

[noddysseus]

Uh-oh.

You can do it RELee! DEUS VULT!

 

[Spruce]

Only bad thing is that my only living son is both blind and a coward... And my daughter at the english court only befriend lesser courtiers.. damn her..

related to the vampiric trait -

can you also have undead children ?

 

[Gothmog]

Looking good, looking good indeed.

I was about to start playing CK again efter having re-watched Terry Jones' Crusades, but now I think I'll wait until this expansion is released.

 

[unmerged(17523)]

jeez, I really didn't see this coming, this is great news. CK has so much potential, hope this expansion full fills some of it.

* Various added inter-character relations, representing loyalty inside courts, relations between countries, as well as friends and rivals for all characters. No longer will realms just fall apart, a beleaguered King will always have friends who will support him. Also beware as your smoothly running realm could run into trouble when your nice loyal vassal becomes your rival.

- This sounds very very good, I hope that this also means the relation between BB and loyalty is revised, that was always a gamebreaker for me. (and perhaps allow loyalty modifiers to be moddable, might not be necessary with the improvements though).
- Big woot for relations between countries.


Looking forward to more updates.
