Factions

England

Faction Leader: King Henry III

England start in a dominant position, owning more lands than the Kings of Scotland, Wales and Ireland Combined. They can soon expect trouble though.

Wales

Wales are a strong defensive faction but unless they attack the English their future looks bleak

Scotland

Scotland will face a tough foe who uses similar tactics early on, thankfully a famous knight known as William Wallace may be able to help...

Norway

Faction Leader: King Haakon IV

Norway starts on islands just off the mainland, and can soon expect reinforcements.

Ireland

Faction Leader: Brian O'Connor

Ireland start off with half of the country in their control, but they will have to wrestle the other provinces from English rule.

Special Features

Forts

The Britannia Campaign introduces permanent forts for the first time. These provide strategic strongholds for attack or defence. Unlike the major towns and castles occupation of a fort does not mean that you control the surrounding region.

Emerging Champions

Each faction has a unique character that emerges during the game. He will have traits that make him a formidable General and will also appear with a large army.

Rebellion on Welsh Border

Simulating historic events, the Welsh, under their self-declared King of Wales, Llewellyn will make attacks along the border between England and Wales.

Dynamic Kings Purse

The King's Purse is a bonus amount of income, irrespective of the wealth generated by cities. The amount awarded by it can change throughout the game. Messages will be sent notifying the player when this happens.
