Dilemmas

Dilemmas are instant lore-based choice-focused events and, for the most part, random in nature which guide the campaign by granting the player a variety of effects.

Highlights include:

• Most have trigger requirements, for example, playing a particular race, research a particular technology or having a lord with high loyalty;
• Most are actually random: as long as the requirements are met, there is a random chance to trigger;
• Most offer bonuses, some offer bonuses in exchange for one or more penalties ( mixed effects), and a few force a lesser of two evils principle;
• Bonuses and penalties can betemporary or permanent, including item rewards;
• Bonuses and penalties can focus on particular characters and armies, or local and factionwide;
• There are no "right" options as each may support a different strategy, so it is up to the player to weigh the pros and cons;
• Most are instant and unskippable and a few can be delayed (revisited later);
• All have between two to four options;
• All have associated lore.
