I imagine a successful Cathar movement in Europe would make quite the use of the 'purification' metaphor. Fun fact: the word 'cathar' is cognate with 'catharsis', purification. With their introduction, the core mechanism by which heresies reform their faiths is at long last introduced. That new version will finally contain the full support for two of the heresies that come up most often in discussions of Crusader Kings 2: lollards and cathars.

By the time you're seeing this news item, the new version of the mod should be already authorized by the site's administration. More up-to-date screenshots will be added later. Screenshot given is an early work-in-progress. Featured as well will also be new, speculative heresies for reformed pagans. This mod attempts to do this by giving unique features and heads-of-religion to religions classified as heresies in CK2, as well as ability to 'reform' them into major players on the European scale.

However, many players sought to find a better, closer to truth, representation of these real world beliefs.

Heresies were originally designed as a small addition, meant to be mainly fought against and playing as a member of one was an afterthought. Heresy Expansion mod strives to give a more satisfying experience to playing heresies in Crusader Kings 2.
