We were already impressed with the scale of The Elder Kings II, the Crusader Kings 3 mod that expands on one of the most popular mods for Crusader Kings 2. The mod will transform Paradox's medieval grand strategy game into an Elder Scrolls history sandbox, but a new dev diary explains that it's going to have detailed story paths for specific personalities, packed with Elder Scrolls lore.
The Elder Kings II is adding a new, earlier start date to provide some lead-up to the tumultuous Interregnum period that began in the 450th year of the Second Era. Starting in 2E 440, The Elder Kings will allow you to follow the stories of several key players in the power struggle that would shape Cyrodiil.
One of the 2E 440 starts is called Warlord Rising, and you'll play as Attrebus Sosildor, a young but highly ambitious general of the Colovian Estates. With the backing of the Elder Council, Attrebus leads an army against the Akaviri Potentate, which is led by Aixnieras Chorak – who traces his lineage back to the Savirien-Chorak, the last true Akaviri Potentate.
