About this mod Machine translation

Landless game expansion pack

This mod introduces character interaction for landless players to apply to serve as a page/adviser in the ruler's court. You will be paid a monthly salary and decisions will be made when you appear in court and perform various duties in the capital. This mod aims to enrich the choice and variety of landless characters and incentivize players to stay in one region or employer. feature:

Landless players can join the ruler's court as an advisor

Help develop your county, mediate between different types of vassals, strategize in ongoing wars, and more

Become a court doctor and treat the ailing court, manage security as a bodyguard, or duel with other knights as your lord's champion

A bunch of "message pop-up" events that give you passive rewards in the palace without taking up all your time

Some random "dilemma" events where you can choose from various options

Ask your employer for minor titles and gift artifacts to gain reputation

Use your reputation to add your employer to your patron list

How to get started/What you need to know:

Join the Ruler's Court via the "Seeking Court Employment" interaction. Higher courts are more demanding. Knowing the court language, having a high level of skill, reputation and loyalty, and rising through the ranks of a vassal court all help.

Use the Appearance Sentence to initiate a court services program and access all other resources.

Your employer will complain if you stay out of court for too long. You can apply for leave to complete the contract. Or, 100% sure, your employer won't push you back.

You can join the court of any ruler, including barons, but you can only apply for court positions with kingdom/empire titles. This is because you basically need to be a landless vassal (and a "landless title" is a duchy level). You can apply for a city council position and possibly even become a regent.

compatibility

The interface has not been overwritten or changed, so almost everything is compatible. This includes overall conversion rate. This seems to work for the Elder Royal Family. "Hockey Song" and "Godhelya". The lower the load order, the better. It should be archive compatible. To be on the safe side, back up first.

Known issues

When you join a Kingdom/Imperial level court, you gain the form of the title "Duke".

As a caravan leader, or generally if you are a lord's follower, please be aware that events may cause you to be separated without notice. It may be necessary to volunteer for a military service to return home.

There are likely other bugs, localization and balance issues. If you have any questions or suggestions, please let me know and I'll get to know them as soon as possible. The beta version has new features added before then.

FAQ

Will it work in multiplayer games? It should work, but maybe some localization is missing on the ruler's side. Tell me and I'll fix it. Can I become prime minister? As an adventurer, no. If you've "disbanded camp," yes. Will this mod work with other large landless mods? It's fully compatible with True Freedom - True Landless, which I highly recommend if you plan on "disbanding camp" and playing as a True Landless character (Important - True Landless is currently behind on updates and may not work properly at the moment). I often get game over after disbanding my camp. Subscribe to True Freedom – True Landlessness.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
