Description

Little remains of those settlements where the Black Death has passed through. Hasty burials make a mockery of the sacraments and set a feast for the crows. Once prosperous provinces have been laid waste, and the lord of the land hides away – secluded in his hilltop fortress, hoping the plague will pass him by. Wiser princes took precautions, and didn’t waste the revenues from more prosperous years.

But, in time, all must pay The Reaper’s Due.

The Reaper’s Due adds a host of new mechanics centered on the Black Death and other world shaping epidemics. Lock your gates to keep the plague from infecting your court, even if it means cutting yourself off from your suffering citizens. Peace and good management will see your provinces reward you with greater wealth and manpower, but constant war and disease may depopulate your countryside.

The reaper’s due introduces many new systems and features to what is already the richest medieval tapestry in gaming:

  • The Black Death: New additions to epidemic system include this super destructive disease and a new map mode that track the expansion of deadly illnesses.
  • Court Physicians: This new position for learned courtiers opens up a series of events tied to the diagnosis and treatment of diseases with medieval tech.
  • Hospitals: Slow down the spread of epidemics by investing in these outposts that care for the sick and infirm.
  • Prosperity and Depopulation: Watch your provinces thrive under your careful attention and degrade under the pressures of diseases run amok.
  • Seclusion: Take a page from the Masque of the Red Death and hide yourself away with your court as plagues ravage the countryside.
  • And even more: New physical traits, new events chain and a host of smaller changes.

  1. Yersina Pestis

    Despite some complaints that this DLC makes the game harder, it makes a good effort at better representing the effect of disease in the Middle Ages. Without this DLC, the "Ill" trait is not even close of an accurate representation to how debilitating illness would be to a ruler. While the amount of diseases are limited, and should be expanded to include more disease categories, the epidemic system is strikingly accurate. The prosperity mechanic is also a good addition to the game.

    As always, while this DLC is good, consider buying it on sale.

  2. Adds Mediveal Life (Death) to the Crusades

    The concept of this DLC is very simple: More diseases! And in a game about medieval Europe what more could you ask for? I also very much like the features they tied into prosperity (like the potential of adding building slots in a thriving province).

  3. More flavor, increases difficulty

    Diseases make the game more perilous for you character. However, a lot of fun and interesting events accompany this DLC.
