  - Rustic Fort now provides +0.1 Authority, but has a slightly higher cost.

  - A region can entirely fall to rebels based on game difficulty, defensive strength, and presence of professional (non-mercenary) units, with stricter thresholds at higher difficulties. Units stationed in the city are expelled but do not defect?unless a new nation is formed.


Several nations can now restore the former Kingdom of Armenia


Realms, Dynasty

  - Token chance now includes a rubber banding mechanism, progressively increasing the chance to obtain a token over time.

  - Max Demesne Penalty is halved for the first 10 regions in excess (now -0.1 instead of -0.2), offering relief for smaller nations.

  - Muslim tribal and nomadic governments added.

  - No discount on Max Demesne size if Realm progression is blocked by government.

  - Mercenaries more frequently reduce their general loyalty to the crown.

  - Fix to a bug where forming a new nation (e.g., Novgorod into Rus') removed national modifiers.


3 new missions for the Byzantines, with less focus on Western Europe


QOL / UI

  - Building Browser now accessible regardless of font scaling or resolution.

  - Token chance breakdown now appears in its tooltip.

  - Pending clauses now listed (answers, requests, both directions) in the diplomacy panel and icon alert.

  - Message settings in MP are now properly saved.

  - Minimum Piety and Stewardship now displayed for buildings.


Every diplomatic transaction is now fully tracked, with detailed clause breakdowns


Faction Perks & Setup

  - Tashir, Syunik, Vanand, and Cilician Armenia can now form the Kingdom of Armenia (rewards: Armenian Culture Tier III perk, Minor Kingdom rank, +5 Authority gain).

  - Requires control of the Ani region, which includes an abandoned palace as a pointer.

  - Slightly adjusted Byzantine civil war parameters.

Decisions

  - Unit recruitment decisions blocked while under siege.

  - "Liberate Region" decision now triggers at end of turn to prevent a multiplayer exploit (creating neutral regions as blockers).

Map

  - Fixed Spoleto region incorrectly named "Patrimony"; removed superfluous anchorage in the same region.

Religion

  - Only Catholics (not all Christians) will return Rome to the Papacy if relations exceed 50 (was previously 25).

Diplomacy

  - When a Declaration of War is issued, it cancels all other pending requests or answers immediately (sanity check).

Warfare

  - Garrisons will no longer sortie to assist outside units (previous behavior often ineffective).

  - Regions occupied by the target and rightfully yours give a rebate of 2 Authority each, up to 6.

  - Medium cavalry prioritized for deployment in open terrain, over medium infantry.

  - When regions are transferred, eligible garrisons remain stationed inside.

Difficulty Settings

  - Gold from pillaging reduced by 20?60% at the highest three difficulty levels.

  - Unit supply usage increased by 25?75% at the same difficulty levels.
