As a lover of video games, I thought it might be a good idea to start a thread on games related to the medieval period. 

I am very excited about these two games, both of them are grand strategy warfare games. Both allow multiple players to play the campaign online. I think both allow 14 players online to compete as separate realms.

Knights of Honor 2- If you are familiar with Total war is resembles their games.

Field of Glory: Kingdoms- More of an in-depth grand strategy game.

Thanks a ton. I was disappointed with how Crusader Kings III turned out, but both of these look quite interesting.
The least departure from Tradition leads to a scorning of every dogma of the Faith.
St. Photios the Great, Encyclical to the Eastern Patriarchs

CANON I: As for all persons who dare to violate the definition of the holy and great Synod convened in Nicaea in the presence of Eusebeia, the consort of the most God-beloved Emperor Constantine, concerning the holy festival of the soterial Pascha, we decree that they be excluded from Communion and be outcasts from the Church if they persist more captiously in objecting to the decisions that have been made as most fitting in regard thereto; and let these things be said with reference to laymen. But if any of the person occupying prominent positions in the Church, such as a Bishop, or a Presbyter, or a Deacon, after the adoption of this definition, should dare to insist upon having his own way, to the perversion of the laity, and to the disturbance of the church, and upon celebrating Pascha along with the Jews, the holy Synod has hence judged that person to be an alien to the Church, on the ground that he has not only become guilty of sin by himself, but has also been the cause of corruption and perversion among the multitude. Accordingly, it not only deposes such persons from the liturgy, but also those who dare to commune with them after their deposition. Moreover, those who have been deposed are to be deprived of the external honor too of which the holy Canon and God's priesthood have partaken.
The Council of Antioch 341, recieved by the Council of Chalcedon

Definitely not a new game but Steam had Age of Empires II Definitive Edition on sale so I finally picked er' up!  Wow! Way better than the original I played as a kid.  Of course I had to pay $10 for the DLC to play as the Bohemians but it was worth it.
