Relive or revive the fading glories of the Eastern Roman Empire in Fate of the Phoenix, an Immersion Pack for Europa Universalis V. This DLC adds new historical flavor and content to the Byzantine Empire, with unique mechanics, historical options and alternative historical paths to pursue.
Europa Universalis V: Fate of the Phoenix includes:
Byzantine Bureaucracies: Unique content for the new Bureaucracy system designed for larger imperial powers. Choose to keep the old ways in hopes of restoring the empire or take the risk of discarding centuries of ambition to follow a more modest course.
Latinitas vs Romanismos: A unique Societal Value for the empire, choosing between a reconciliation with the Latin powers of the west or entrenching native Greek culture and independence.
Fate of the Phoenix Disaster: Work to reverse the crumbling fortunes of the empire before it gets too late to stop the decline. Choose a clear path, expand quickly, and reform so you can stabilize the ship of state.
More Orthodox Content: Interact with the Ecumenical Patriarchs, restore the Pentarchy to strengthen the Eastern Church, expand Orthodoxy to Rome and Mend the Schism.
Hellenism: Revive belief in the old pagan gods, seeking their favor through the invocation of omens.
Latin Culture: Embrace a total return to the old Roman roots, taking up the old ways.
New Art: New portraits, illustrations, city models and unit models inspired by Byzantine history.
New Flavor Content: New events, military units, character-related actions, subjects, and more!
