Similarly to North Korea mode, III transplanted the initial issue II had when it comes to opinion.Eventually fixed by Obvious Rule Patch in 1.1 the penalty cap was raised to 100%, and buildings (including those that provide the man-at-arms bonuses) deactivate if a player is far over their domain limit for longer than the one-year grace period for handing out newly-conquered titles. Since the over-domain penalties on taxes and levies were capped at 90%, it remained a net gain at ten times the normal domain limit, and allowed absurd stacking of man-at-arms bonuses, allowing one's Men-At-Arms to be able to annihilate armies dozens of times their size with no effort, at least until they became so powerful that they hit an integer overflow and cause negative casualties. Crusader Kings II's infamous "North Korea mode", wherein a player simply doesn't bother with vassals and holds everything directly, was back and still powerful in the release version of III (1.0).And if you have a big Empire (which you do most probably), you'll have even more money when with Golden Obligations. Vassals will regularly seek indulgencies with you paying 100 gold each time. Being head of a new Christian faith is even more broken.Given the AI's enormous fondness for seductions in the base game, parking a halfway-decent spymaster with a good intrigue in the court of a nearby king note The Byzantine court in particular is chock-full of sex fiends can easily net you hooks worth several hundred gold a year. The "Golden Obligations" feat from the Avaricious tree (the first one obtainable) allows you to blackmail people for their hooks, granting you gold (usually up to 100, scaling with titles).In the early game, where teching up your Fame is a lot more useful than piety, becoming a serial divorcer (often of the same character) is an extremely lucrative exchange. Catholic and Orthodox rulers (as well as any monogamous religions with a religious head) can divorce their spouse for 100 piety, and gain up to 300 Fame (which gatekeeps access to the more advanced Casus Belli) for marrying again.Several of his strategies are still eminently breakable in-game, while others are since fixed. ![]() Uniquely, many of Crusader Kings 3's game-breaking features in early builds were discovered even before release thanks to Paradox handing a preview copy to The Spiffing Brit.
