Fan Creates Fire Emblem: Three Houses Mod for Crusader Kings 3
Crusader Kings modder Steelkeep99 just recently released a new Fire Emblem-themed total conversion mod for PC grand strategy game Crusader Kings 3.
Crusader Kings is a grand strategy series set in medieval Afro-Eurasia in which the player takes the role of the head of a dynasty and has to lead their dynasty to greatness while avoiding the plots of treacherous vassals. The Crusader Kings 3 developers frequently release new DLC to add new mechanics and details to its medieval world. Fire Emblem, on the other hand, is a tactical RPG set in a fantasy version of medieval Europe, where the player takes the role of an anime lord leading their friends and allies in tactical, turn-based battles.
Steelkeep99's mod combines the two series, changing the setting of Crusader Kings 3 from Afro-Eurasia to Fodlan, the setting of Fire Emblem: Three Houses. The mod recreates the game world fairly accurately, with the main three countries of the game, the Adrestian Empire, the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus, and the Leicester Alliance, as well as their rulers: Edelgard von Hresvelg, Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd, and Claude von Riegan.
The mod takes place during Three Houses' timeskip, and it portrays the period in an incredible amount of detail, such as Claude not yet being in charge of the Alliance at the time. The war between the three nations hasn't yet started yet either; possibly to allow for more player freedom, and possibly because the kind of three-way war depicted in the game wouldn't work under Crusader Kings 3's rules.
The Fire Emblem series has always set its drama around feudal politics between dynasties and vassals, so it can fit seamlessly in the mechanics of the Crusader Kings series. Some fans may still want to see the update to add same sex marriage, so that fan favorites like Edelgard or Linhardt can get married to someone of the same sex, as they can in Three Houses.
Crusader Kings 3 is out now for PC.
