Crusader Kings II

[F15pilotX 4]

I don't know if any of y'all are a fan of Paradox Interactive's games (Hearts of Iron series, Europa Universalis series, King Arthur, Magicka etc), but they're coming out with Crusader Kings II in a bit over two weeks (February 14th), with a demo no later than the 5th.

 

• Start a game in 1066 and forge 400 years of European history
  
• Take on the role of a Christian noble and carry them through the ages from Count to Emperor via the line of succession
  
• Gather Prestige for every successive character you play, furthering the glory of your dynasty
  
• Expand your feudal domain at the expense of your rivals
  
• Unravel the plots of your courtiers and vassals, each armed with their own agendas
  
• Re-enact the Crusades, defend against the Mongol onslaught, and form feudal nation-states
  
• Struggle with the Pope for control of the bishops
  
• Relive the Middle Ages with up to 32 other players in a competitive multiplayer mode
