Weight of Crown

Heavy is the head that wears the crown.
Weight of Crown compels players to deeply contemplate the purpose and pressures of rulership. Beyond managing vassals and courts, you must also govern your domains’ prosperity. Your people need your aid. This mod’s core aim is to comprehensively overhaul the game’s economic system and war attrition, transforming the abstract economy into a population-based, realistic simulation.

🏆 Key Features

• Granular Population & Social Classes: Protect your freemen, serfs, slaves, burghers, tribesmen, nobles, and clergy. Manage tens of thousands across provinces, adjust tax policies, and reap immense wealth.
  
• Immigration System: Populations migrate to provinces with higher development and available land. Wars trigger refugee waves. Enact laws and invest resources to build a realm where none are displaced.
  
• Dynamic Multiculturalism: Provinces feature proportional cultures/religions. Immigrants bring diversity but also tension. Conduct missions to convert or assimilate—or forge a universal beacon of tolerance.
  
• Manpower & Custom Levies: Tailor levies per county. Use population-based manpower to sustain armies and avoid economic collapse from prolonged wars.
  
• Fort Maintenance: Forts degrade when breached or neglected. Repair or rebuild them—empty coffers invite disaster.
  
• Realistic Climate Zones: 11 distinct climates based on the Köppen classification. Experience why Vikings coveted England’s fertile lands.
  
• Rural to Metropolis: Develop backwaters into continental supercities.
  
• Max Compatibility: Works with most major scenario mods. For total-conversion mods, delete map_data to ensure compatibility. All mechanics operate independently, avoiding conflicts.
