From the official description:
Lead grand armies to victories on the steppes of Asia as you cut new paths towards the wealth of the Silk Road, India and Europe. Force mighty foreign potentates to become your tributaries and manage the cutthroat rivalries and feuds of nomadic society as only a Great Khan can.
The Horse Lords introduces a wide range of new tools and mechanics to add even greater variety to what is already one of the most diverse titles in strategy gaming history:
- Larger Map: The steppes of Central Asia are now open for you to conquer or develop
- New rules for nomads: Now distinct from other pagan tribes, the Mongol and Turkic nomads draw strength from open pastures and large populations
- Clan management: Struggle alongside rival clans within your nomadic nation, even launching civil wars to keep your khan on top
- Tributaries: Vassals are often a lot of trouble, so why not simply force a conquered enemy to send u a load of gold every now and then?
- The Silk Road: This great historical trading route linked the Mediterranean and the Far East. Exploit its wealth or pillage its trade posts
- Forts: New temporary structures you can build to hold enemy territory while your army marches onward
- And more! Crusader Kings II: Horse Lords is available now from major digital retailers.
