The new Tours and Tournaments DLC will add exciting new features to Crusader Kings 3, like a new travel mechanic. So in this video we looked at travelling and communication in the middle ages, and why the addition of the DLC's new game dynamics will make the game more historically accurate.

Also, what did you guys think about our integration, would a VPN have helped the defenders of Acre against Richard the Lionheart?
Roman's didn't transport trucks with 18 huge wheels driving down their roads. You can't change your capital in CK3 whenever you want because your capital affects your sphere of influence
Make a mod to remove the limit on moving capital
6:28 modern roads need to contend with 5ton vehicles passing through them at high speeds at a much much much greater volume than ancient roads, if anything we should start making vehicles less road-destructive like in the past
I'm pretty sure next year's big expansion will be on imperial-tier systems, so we will finally get the Byzantine Empire mechanics we've been waiting for, maybe some expanded Papal stuff, and my bet is: itinerant court mechanics for the HRE. This update provides the groundwork (travel mechanics), and the itinerant court is such a glaring omission from this DLC, that the only reason for its absence is that they are keeping it for the imperial expansion.
im hoping there is a general expansion for either india or the middle east before that.
@@flyingfoamtv2169 I hope there is more than an "India" dlc, considering we got an "Iberia" dlc. ( Iberia is smaller than India)
@@whatthebeepvideos i agree.
@@flyingfoamtv2169thats a stretch considering this is called crusader kings not all middle ages. India at this point is already a stretch. A dlc in middle east is alot more reasonable.
@@Bixmy the name doesnt matter, if its on the map its part of the game
This video nicely summarizes some of the thoughts I had while reading the dev diaries and watching the feature breakdowns. This will make the game sooo much more historically accurate and will make gameplay outside of war so much more interesting.
Historically speaking a concept of a permanent capital in the Middle Ages is a bit controversial. Less so for the late middle ages, as capitals definitely emerged over centuries. But initially, the cities/castles that later became capitals that we know today were just the main residences of a monarch where he was resting with his court between travels. Finally, they is a way to actually govern your realm through itinerant court. It sounds great.
Now, I hope that in the future they will include coronations in this system. The coronation of a Holy Roman Emperor in Rome should be a grand journey topped by an even grander ceremony.
Thank you for the good input! You’re right, capitals as well as clearly defined borders developed after the high middle ages. So states then were conceptually very different
The itinerant court makes sense when the king is essentially a warlord, even Julius Caesar describes holding court to settle disputes in friendly Gallic towns in between his campaigns.
The Mount and Blade series would likely be a better way to represent an itinerant court, though I have not played any mods that do so. Warband has a court in a single fief, which can be moved to another fief by expending the right trade goods, but the only governing that can be done from the warband itself is calling armies on campaign.
One thing they really need to fix is gathering armies. The current way the game plays, you can raise all of your troops in one central rally point (say in your realm capital) in one day, which is utterly absurd. If a king wanted to summon an army in medieval England, he had to wait for troops to arrive from different parts of the country, and this could take a rather long time, as it could take weeks to gather an army from the whole of the kingdom. Levies should need to be raised at their local rally points as seperate armies and then actually join the main body of the army. Stationing men at arms in various holdings should mean they can only be raised in that holding. No more ridiculous magicking vast armies out of thin air. This makes sense since if a civil war broke out or an invading force landed, the first thing that may meet them may not the full royal army but instead a local/regional force, as happened for example with Harald Hardrada's invasion of England, where the Norwegians were met first by Earl Morcar's force and defeated them, before being defeated by the royal army at the battle of Stamford Bridge. Also I feel that vassals should play a greater role in defending their lands. If you declare war for a county, it would be reasonable to face the forces of the local Earl, Count, Lord or Duke as well as, or, depending on the circumstances, instead of, a royal army, since this is what would have likely happened historically.
I just found your channel and am enjoying it very much! Thanks for the interesting and entertaining content!
What an excellent video. I love learning about history and at the same time getting excited for the possibilities of this new DLC. Well done!
the new dlc should bring nomadic warlords tribesmen. like Mongol conquests and gunpowder introduction
Awesome job team! Can’t wait to see the DLC in action. Thanks for making such amazing content! ❤️
Thank you for the support ☺️
Hello History in Bits! I was just wondering if you are gonna make a video on how historically accurate The Sons of Ragnar/867 England is in the game. Unless you have already made it of course.
5:07 feel called out 😂
I think implementing a more itinerant court might cause more technical problems than anything. Sure, the system might work for individual characters or parties of characters on a pilgrimage, but to oversee the movement of all those courtiers and keeping track of them all might have unforeseen effects on other parts of the game.
Granted, I might just be a negative nelly, but sometimes I think Paradox has to straddle the line between historical accuracy and how the player experiences and has fun with the game. Some of the more realistic features might have to be omitted because they simply aren't fun
Great content
Thank you!
2:46-2:54 I love this intro soo sooo much!
Thank you! You recognise the melody?
@@historyinbits no I've never heard it before
The only downside of that DLC is that when your king (let's say viking king) is raiding the Mediterranean in his army , he can't participate in tournaments near his armies , only the capital is taken into account.
Not the Shade, the SHADE you just threw at DB trains xDD
Just curious but do you speak German? Cause I see some in your B-roll every now and then
We’re a team of two Austrians and a Brit!
@@historyinbits makes sense!
Is LazerPig voices the ad, or it is such a great voice simulation?
1:05
Eeeh, there are some inconsistencies still
I love the addition but I feel like the speeds of travel are way too slow. I know the road systems were awful but it seems kind of ridiculous how slow the travel is.
It’s really not that bad, I honestly though it’d be worse
I wonder how long will it take to have these new contents available on the console version. The Royal Court DLC is only coming to console later this month 😢
I know. We basically are a year behind..
Should've bought it on pc then lol. This is what happens when you buy a pc game on console.
@@MundusMeus974 because everyone has a pc
@@MundusMeus974 because everybody totally has the money to blow on a good pc
I tried to go on a pilgramage, ran out of food, tried to forage, died. 10/10 would recommend.
IIRC, aside for the HRE, England had itinerant courts up untill Henry VIII, but i've have not got any info on France
Was Ile de France always the direct capitol?
Yeah I think Paris was definitely the abode of the kings of france since most early medieval and medieval kings barely had any power outside of paris
This is the weirdest, most pointless comment I have ever made on a UA-cam video… but I’ve been to that Henry VIII Kings Head pub at 4:33. It’s got pretty good Pub Grub
Sorry if I am being rude but can you please make another video on the Byzantines because as you may notice in the comments it was not really at least at some parts the most accurate video like in the part where you are talking about culture you are referring to Turks in Anatolia in 1066 before the battle of majikert and ther settlement in Anatolia and ther was a lot of stuff that you could had mentioned now I will be fear you did say in the comments about some of the inaccuracy’s and that I am a greek/Bulgarian/aromanian from Greece makes me biased and in general for a English man like you to talk about Byzantine history you want bad but still I believe that if you have the time please or remake the video or just upload a new video I wish you are talking about some of the mistakes tnx
Why is his Shadowplay in German?
is it just me or soes it seem travel is too expensive for lower nobility like counts to attend tournaments?
Army movement speed is still very slow 🐌
as it should be 😉
It could honestly be slower, when William invaded England it took the saxon army weeks to reach the south
@Deilen-SheThey no its too slow. Godwinson made it London to Stamford Bridge in 4 days. 180 miles or so in 4 days (which was very fast for the time) he then marched back to London in 8 days and from there to Hastings some days later.. It takes you 3 months in game to make the same march from York to where Hastings would be in county. The in-game movement speed is far to slow. In game Armies move at about 3 miles per day when they could do triple that at a slow pace.
@@patrickr8400
Those are forced march, though.
But that is decent roadwork in Belgium when compared to the United States. Oh and we have this problem with our people having abandonment issues, so if you say anything that makes them believe you are abandoning them, they become angry yandere like they were to teachers until teachers elected Youngkin, a Republican. Dreadful emotional issues I am sure any European will instantly notice from such Americans.
What does that mean?
@@jacobcash7848 We have a mental health need largely ignored.
@@sagittariusa7662 Oh ok I am sorry I was just confused on how you worded that. I largely agree with that sentiment. Thank you for responding. God bless
Pin me?
