Description
Become the King and wrestle over control of Europe in this fresh take on medieval real-time grand strategy.

Knights of Honor II: Sovereign includes all the depth players desire while being the gate-way game to the grand strategy genre, presenting the world as a living, breathing miniature, alive and ripe for the taking. Choose your royal court carefully and determine the destiny of your people, be it riches, conquest, intrigue, trade, or defeat! Raise armies to defend your lands or take war to the enemy - even jump into battle directly in action-packed RTS combat. The path is open: become the true Sovereign of your people.

Features

  • Accessible Grand Strategy - All the depth of religion, diplomacy, city development, and more, with none of the confusion
  • Choose Your Kingdom – Select from over 200 kingdoms across Europe, North Africa, and parts of Asia
  • Real-Time Gameplay – The Medieval world comes alive, no turns needed
  • Royal Court - Appoint Marshalls, Clerics, Merchants, Diplomats, and Spies to exert your will across the land
  • RTS Battles - Lead your armies directly in riveting RTS engagements
  • Robust Multiplayer - Join with multiple friends to take on new challenges across the medieval world

ASSEMBLE THE ROYAL COURT

In Knights of Honor II: Sovereign, your Royal Court is one of the most important tools at your disposal. Your choice of Knights greatly influences your capabilities and sets the tone for your style of gameplay.

  • Marshals lead your armies into battles to conquer your enemies and defend your lands
  • Diplomats are capable of turning even your greatest enemies into trustworthy friends. Use them to create strong defensive and offensive pacts, negotiate marriages, and make sure that your friends have your back in times of need
  • Merchants can not only increase your income by trading with your neighbors, but also import needed goods to bolster your economy or go on a voyage in search for new riches
  • Clerics take care of all your kingdom’s spiritual needs and play a vital role when it comes to the population’s education, happiness and culture
  • Spies are great If you like a more subtle approach to world domination. The spies offer you plenty of options: bribe enemy knights, instigate rebellions, or provoke war between your neighbors to achieve your goals

FIGHT FOR CONTROL OVER THE MEDIEVAL WORLD

Start your campaign with one of 200+ historical kingdoms and expand your territory over 300+ provinces. Build up your economy and produce valuable goods while making sure your lands can support your military.
Choose out of over 100 different military units ranging from English longbowman over fierce Nordic warriors to powerful siege engines and assemble great armies to defend your borders and bring the fight to your enemies.

LEAD YOUR ARMIES INTO BATTLE

You don’t trust someone else to make the right tactical decisions? Then lead your men into battle yourself! Knights of Honor II: Sovereign offers exciting real-time strategy field battles and sieges with up to four armies.

FIGHT YOUR FRIENDS IN MULTIPLAYER

Knights of Honor II: Sovereign supports multiplayer with up to 6 players and various game modes: Conquer the medieval world together in co-op or fight each other in teams or free-for-all games.

Wow

I wasn't too sure what to expect with this. What I got was the best parts of Knights of the Realm, Civ, Medieval Total war and espionage the reminded me of the Guild 2. Odd connections I know, but if you liked Knights of the Realm 2 back in the 90s, you'll love this!

Incredibly Frustrating

71 hours of gameplay so far. You make a little progress and the game almost predictably throws another hurdle at you. For example, kill off your King right after you take a province, or spawn rebel after rebel in provinces with a positive value, or have a country declare war on you even though they were kin to you. It seemingly never ends. My advise would be to save often and reload. The reload at least allows a new random seed so that maybe your King doesn't die for a while longer, or the rebels don't spawn as often, or your allies remain on your side, or a bleeping spy doesn't assassinate your General just before you make the final assault on an enemy nation. I'm still playing because I do like a challenge but this is not the game to play after a bad at the office.

CK3 Lite with more fun

Having enjoyed the original and wanting to play it again, I was pleasantly surprised to find this on sale. The game has much faster pace than similar Paradox games. Unlike them, it also has Total War like battles, so that mountainous terrain can work two ways now if you outmanouver the opponent. The trade and economy are also less complex with fewer modifiers, which makes it more accessible for new players. Especially, because once you buy it you don't need to spend another 100$/€/£ on DLCs to get the full game. Overall, a bit simpler than CK or EU games, and a lot cheaper, yet more gamey and fun too. Though, probably too basic for hardcore players and maths undergrads.

A fun sandbox romp

This game is quite good, oh my I wish that it was great! It is strickly and big sandbox romp. If it were a smaller scale, with tighter mechanics, it would likely be epic. The combat could be elimated entirely, there could be a historical senario that reflects proper logistics and such. But! It's a vast sandbox adventure, nothing more nothing less. Very fun, and I am glad I dropped some time in it, but don't see the need to go too deep into this system.
