I need to expand and build an empire, but it lacks the turn-based gameplay and victory conditions that define the 4X genre. I have armies, and can engage in strategic combat with neighboring rulers, but it's not a real-time strategy game like Starcraft II or Age of Empires. The rich simulation of Crusader Kings weaves together so many aspects of medieval life that it’s a little difficult to explain what kind of a game it is. Part of his father’s lands were granted to his brothers, so Brian faced the challenging task of reclaiming the glory of his father’s kingdom through warfare, intrigue, or alliance. After the unfortunate if unsurprising death of Murchad, my first king, I continued on as his primary heir, Brian. As long as I have lands and an heir, the game keeps moving. This complex simulation game puts me in control not just of a single king, but of an entire dynasty. Thus ended the reign of my first king in Crusader Kings III, a grand strategy game from Paradox Interactive, but my playthrough was far from over. I lost the esteem of my vassals, and died of a heart attack not long after. Sure that I was invincible, I jumped off a high roof to impress my subjects. The stress of rule took its toll on my mind, however, and in my old age I succumbed to lunacy.
My wife dutifully bore me seven children, and through two wars I extended my holdings across southern Ireland. I was an ambitious king, wrathful and impatient with my subjects, but a skilled tactician on the battlefield.
