Today we have released Update 1.7.1 which includes a lot of changes to issues that you have been reporting and a few that we found on our own! Discuss this update on our forums!

1.7.1 CHANGELOG

AI

• AI can no longer hire and fire court position in the same decision cycle, this should fix the issue where AIs could end up in massive prestige deficits

Balance

• Slightly relaxed requirements for Reviving Taltoism to make it not entirely impossible in 1066
• Crusade Targeting - Fixed so that Crusades check for current military strength when excluding target kingdoms instead of max military strength
• Crusade Targeting - Completely rebalanced Crusade Kingdom Selection; while Jerusalem will still be the most attractive target (for Christians), there will now be much more variation in targets and a faith will tend to defend what is assigned to be their Heartlands to a much greater degree
• Crusade Targeting - Distance is now a much greater factor when determining a crusade target
• Crusade Targeting - Catholic Crusades are now much less likely to select a kingdom in the African interior, and slightly less likely to pick a north African kingdom (if the Holy Land is taken, we want the crusades to focus on going deeper into the middle east rather than to die from attrition in the Sahara)

Bugfix

• Crusade Targeting - Fixed so that Crusades cannot target an area below 5 counties in size
• AI House members in Feuds will now be much more likely to start schemes against their enemies
• Characters will now be more reluctant to allow Feud enemies to raise their children
