Ver 1.0

  • The top 2 most powerful vassals in Kingdoms and Empires will create their own personalized factions, and set focuses and goals. Both the AI and the player can create these factions.
  • These factions are a representation of that ruler's influence within the realm.
  • The faction leader will then set a Focus for the faction. A focus can only be changed after 10 years. Then every year the faction leader will hold a meeting with all the faction members to discuss progress.
  • Focuses available:
    • Glory
    • Prosperity
    • Faith
  • After setting a Focus, the leader will choose a short-term goal for the faction. Currently available goals:
    • Glory Focus Goals:
      • Attack a Neighboring Realm: The leader can ask faction members to pledge war support at the faction meeting. Gives a powerful Faction Assisted War Casus Belli that can be used to attack a neighboring realm and usurp a de jure duchy area.
      • Oust Foreigners from Realm: The leader can ask faction members to pledg war support at the faction meeting. Gives a powerful Casus Belli that can be used to attack your liege's vassals who belong to a different culture group than you and your liege. Usurps all demesne titles of the target.
      • Improve Public Image: If successful, gives a modifier that increases general opinion for several years.
    • Prosperity Focus Goals:

      • Establish a New Settlement: The leader can ask faction members to contribute Wealth at the faction meeting. Will be successful if a new holding is constructed in the faction leader's demesne.

      • Convert a Province Religion: If successful, converts one of your demesne province's religion to your religion.
  • A goal is considered failed if it is not accomplished within 10 years.
  • Accomplishing the goal will increase the faction members' opinion of their leader. Whereas, failing or abandoning goals will decrease their opinion.
  • A powerful vassal who leads such a faction can also make some special demands from the liege every few years:
    • Demand Council Position: The powerful vassal can demand that he be granted his rightful position on the liege's council.
    • Demand release of family from prison: The powerful vassal can demand that the liege releases all of his family members that the liege currently has imprisoned.
    • If the liege refuses any demand, the faction leader's as well as all members' opinion of the liege will reduce. If the liege complies, the opinion will increase.
  • The AI will choose a focus and goal depending on its personality, but there is still some random factor as well.
  • The casus belli above CANNOT be used by a character to attack his religious head.
