Players have been speculating about an updated version of Crusader Kings 2's classic Game of Thrones mod since Crusader Kings 3 was announced. But, how about an entire rework set in an original fantasy universe with six years' worth of lore, a TTRPG setting, and a Europa Universalis IV mod already under its potion belt?
That's what modder and writer Jay10101 is planning to bring to the banquet table with Anbennar, a full CK3 conversion mod that adds elves, dwarves, and entire schools of magic to what we already have to refer to as 'vanilla' Crusader Kings 3. We'd ask them to slow down, but with mods that look as cool as Anbennar in the works, it's hard to mind all that much.
Jay10101 describes Anbennar as a "collaborative world-building project". It was originally a total conversion mod for EU4, but here it follows the same historical period as vanilla CK3. "In EU4 we explored what happens to a fantasy world in an age of gunpowder and reformation," the modder says."In CK3 we'll deal with fantasy at its peak. Knights and magic, with all the undertones of political and dynastic intrigue."
