This is part of the alignment system in the game which goes between two axes: “Christianity” versus “Old Faith” and “Righteous” versus “Tyrant”. The first of many choices in this adventure.Īnother neat things of these quests is that the choices you make there have an actual effect on the alignment of your ruler. These add a lot to the atmosphere as they generally add a lot of lore and can have dire consequences (you can i.e. And the result of such an adventure can have all kinds of rewards / effects on both the adventurer and the kingdom. The one’s you can choose are dependent on your heroes skills & your king’s beliefs. In an adventure one of your knights goes through a small story line in which you get to answer multiple choice questions. A lot of the quests revolve around fighting a certain army or conquering a certain territory, but there are also a lot of adventure oriented quests.
Additionally there are optional main quests and even optional side quests (some of which keep occurring). There are generally multiple paths you can take in each acts quest tree and some quests are initially hidden waiting on a certain situation / precondition to occur. Quests are in my opinion one of the main reasons the game shines as it gives the game a sense of progression / depth. The game is divided into multiple acts and each act has multiple quests you have to finish to progress. Each one of these takes up two slots instead of one.
Note: There are also hero units (knights) that are a knight with a small set of elite soldiers there can be multiple of these in one army. Recruiting new armies / replenishing your troops costs quite a bit of time, so ideally you do that during the winter. You can have multiple armies, each of which can have up to 16 units in them. When it’s not winter you move your armies around to do quests, conquer cities and fight other armies in tactical real-time battles (with a pause option). You can also pass laws (another tree) and you can build structures that give bonuses in any of the strongholds that you own. During the winter you can’t move your armies, but you can do research (there’s a whole research tree).
Part of the grand strategy part of the game is managing your provinces economically, building your armies and assigning governors. One province has one or more towns in it and has other buildings (i.e. That map is divided into different provinces, each of which you can conquer. You play as King Arthur on a giant map of Britannia. When I say wargame, it’d be more accurate to describe it as a mix of a grand strategy game and a real-time strategy game like in the Total War series.
