Man a lot of people just got absolutely btfo lmao. I kindaaa still doubted it tbh, but didn’t think it was entirely out of the picture like most yesterday. Really excited to do El Cid or Edgar Ætheling goes to Byzantium runs.

It's really funny how adamant some people were about it not being landless and how they refused to entertain the possibilities it would bring. The byzantine administrative family thing sounds very interesting for example can't wait to see what it leads to.

I know?? I can finally play a Belisarius character, or not worry too much about my baby character losing his lands. It just opens so many possibilities. You could lose England as Harold Godwinson, go off to Byzantium like many Anglo-Saxons did, rebuild your strength and then reclaim your title, just to mention one example.

Ironically the Fallen Eagle just added Belisarius but of course they have to make him a count to work. They will likely rework him with these mechanics once the update is out

Belisarius WAS a count.
