It certainly could be, CKII is full of things sticking where they shouldn't.

Even so, that's ridiculous for someone who isn't Emperor of Half The World.

I say modding.

440k polish army @ the Charlemagne scenario before 800?....it is a modded game obviously. Even 44k would be hard to achieve, even tho that should be possible via decent marriages I guess. [PS. The Carolingian Empire starts with 45k troops in 867.]

New devdiary out

Since nomads have less vassals than normal, they have to deal with clans instead. Clans also use the population and manpower (and you can play as them) as well as having an opinion of each other clan in general called clan sentiment. Big realms are encouraged to have a lot of clans, but too many in a too small realm will end up with big problems happening. There is a new screen depicting clan relations (see below). There are lines running between the clans. Red means a "Blood Feud" and green "Blood Oath". A clan can only have one blood oath, but as many feuds as you want. Feuds are started by declaring one or raiding other clans (you can attack other clans in the realm despite all being under the same khan). Oaths can be declared with another clan like a marriage and lasts while both leaders are alive. This allows you to call them to wars against other clans. Feuds end when one party pays a certain price or when one of the clans is no more. It is harder to manage vassal clans, I guess it encourages tyrannic actions.

Also, supposedly there is a patch today:
Code: [Select]
- Updated government calculation to be up to date with EU4 1.12
- Fixed the localisation issues on Mac and Linux with country names
- Ibadi is now its own main religion like it should be

NOTE: We are aware of an issue on Mac and Linux caused by EU4's recent engine upgrade, which broke EU4's ability to find the exported games from CK2. For now, you have to manually copy the exported save from eu4_export/mod to EU4's mod folder but this will be fixed ASAP by the EU4 team.

Hm, I just noticed that the size of the world map won't be changed for the expansion. It looks like that the devs won't touch it 'til the China & Japan expansions...from a historical point of view this will be annoying - The Mongol Empire before 1259, but it's understandable if I "think with the head of the devs". Now I am pretty sure that the China expansion will be the next one.

I think they may push it just a little bit to the east, in order to encompass most of central asia without touching China. But yeah, most provinces will be in wasteland north of India. Take a look at the minimap in the images above.

It's allright for now...side note: those territories [China etc.] became more important when Kublai [Great Khan of the Mongols & Emperor of the Yuan dynasty] reigned. The 4 Khanates.

It only works for nomads though (according to devs), and the Orlanthi are tribal. We do need a KoDP/RuneQuest mod though.

Orlanthi are just as Nomadic as they are tribal...I can definitely see this system working for them. At least in a way that is far more interesting than tribal mechanics

The Orlanthi are mainly not nomadic.  Generally if they leave one settlement for another it means that they are dissatisfied with the way that its being run.

Doesn't mean it couldn't be made to work.  Maybe give them no/very few CBs that take land?  So you're still restricted to your little patch unless you force another clan off.  That would be in line with KoDP's mechanics.
