My favorites are the marshals’ new job, which is to go crack skulls at the county level and get those peasants in line. Regarding councillors (explained in greater detail earlier this month) they get some new activities. Spymasters will be the unit tasked with rooting those out to your advantage. That is a vulnerability that can be used against them, either as exposure or blackmail - a “hook” that makes someone ignore or even assist aims they’d otherwise oppose.
Content designer Ewan Cowhig Croft explains that whenever a character “does something they shouldn’t,” that creates a Secret. Overall, what you get up to in Crusader Kings 3 will follow you around. That means recruiting loyal, tight-lipped agents and having a Varys-level spymaster running the plot for you.įor those who are lovers, not fighters, there will be, ahem, “seduction” schemes, which should be self-explanatory. I like the way Petter Vilberg chuckles when he says “Once the target knows that there’s a scheme against them, they will be taking every possible measure to protect their life.” So you better keep it on the DL. Specifically, how CK3 will enable your scheming, murdering and other palace intrigues.
