AEP: Final Release
MP Checksum for 1.17.* (Ascendant): 715b

The Asia Expansion Project (AEP) is a mod that expands the world of Crusader Kings III by extending the game’s map to include the vast expanse of the Far East. From the rugged Manchurian frontier in the north to the western edges of Papua in the south, AEP offers players an expansive and immersive world to explore.

This mod adds dozens of new, historically grounded cultures and religions across East and Southeast Asia, each with their own traditions, men-at-arms, and flavor. It includes thousands of historically attested characters with well-researched lineages and titles, ensuring immersive, lore-rich gameplay.

Unlike other mods that bundle unrelated content, AEP is focused on balance and is built to integrate seamlessly with vanilla CK3, offering depth without bloat, and every feature is backed by thorough research to preserve historical authenticity.

                         

Notice for Mac Users: Please be aware there are known CTD issues on Mac computers when running the Asia Expansion Project. We are aware of the issue, and are currently working on a fix.

The Asia Expansion Project should work seamlessly with the latest DLCs and is generally compatible with most mods on the Workshop, with the exception of larger overhauls. However, if you do encounter any bugs or incompatibility please be sure to let us know over on Discord[discord.gg]

Q: "Does this alter any core mechanics or add new ones to base CK3?"

A: Currently no, although there are plans on adding new government types, struggle mechanics, events and decisions in future releases of the mod.

Q: "How can I join the team?"

A: Help is always welcome here on the project, and if you're interested please consider reaching out to us over on Discord[discord.gg]

Q: "Are you collaborating or planning on collaborating with any other modders on the Workshop?"

A: Some yes, while we prefer to use our own in-house assets we're open to collaborating and making use of assets created by other modders provided their content aligns with the project's goals.

Q: "Why am I seeing faceless characters that haunt my dreams and keep me awake at night?"

A: The missing face bug has been present in vanilla CK3 since the release of the 1.7 update, and isn't the fault of the Asia Expansion Project. Find out more here[forum.paradoxplaza.com]

Q: Why are my characters bald and/or naked:

A: Typically, it's due to a mod conflict or incorrect load order. However, it could also be related to corrupted or missing game files in the Paradox root directory, which would require invalidating. So please rule out these possibilities before reporting a bug on Discord[discord.gg]

Q: How can I help support the mod's development?

A: You can support the project by spreading the word on social media, or backing the project over on Ko-fi - every little bit helps.
