## Gameplay
- Crown Authority rework
- Crown authority isn't tied to innovations anymore. Passing higher levels require more prestige and passing some stat checks instead.
- The AI will try to stay at a Crown Authority level that makes sense rp wise. For example, Werewolves will stay at Low, while Road of Kings characters aim for Absolute.
- Crown Authority 0 : Malus to vassal tax/levies, bonus to vassal opinion and limit.
- Crown Authority 1 : Lesser versions of the above
- Crown Authority 2 : Mostly a neutral medium.

- Game rules:
- Added a game rule for adjusting Journey costs (multipliers: 0x, 0.5x, 1x, 2x)
- Added a game rule for lifting the restrictions on the "Reveal yourself to the Vatican" Journey
- Forgiving characters can't "forgive" the hooks on their herd, ghouls, thralls, and dreamers anymore
- Being astray faith doesn't matter to factions modifiers anymore. Being hostile matters less. #Only affects characters, not counties factions. Evil faith still matters as much.
- Being of a different culture almost doesn't matter to characters for factions anymore
- Fabricate hook is now quite a bit harder to pull off
