If the game is played on Steam, once the player's faction conquers all of Eastern Europe, regardless of being part of a questline or not, the player is awarded the achievement Power Shift. In With Fire & Sword, each of the three main storyline quests require the player to eventually conquer all of Eastern Europe, but once that is completed, the ending for each questline is different. Any claimant of said kings' thrones also have a claim to the throne of Calradia. The player has the option of naming their Kingdom, and all of their possessions will show on the map in red.Īll current kings of any faction have a claim to the throne of Calradia. By doing so, the player will begin their faction at war with whichever Kingdom they stole the fief from, and will have to appoint vassals out of their own party members or by persuading members of enemy armies to join them. Upon doing this, the player has the option to take fiefs for themselves. The player can only have a valid claim if the player successfully garners enough support through a companion.Īnother way to take claim to the throne of Calradia is to become an independent outlaw resented by one of the five factions. Because doing so will result in a companion leaving your party for a prolonged amount of time, it is also a good idea to send a companion that is not too important to the party. Any companion can be sent, but one with a good charisma is advised, as a lower one might result in failure of being recognized as a valid claimant. When your own kingdom is formed, you may also send companions to other kingdoms as an emissary, also bringing up your right to rule, and relation with that kingdom and its ruler. The companion will leave for a prolonged amount of time, but will come back gaining you right to rule points.


In order to become king/queen, you must found your own kingdom, by capturing a fief while unaligned, rebelling as a Vassal when a fief is denied to you, or getting your husband/wife to help you start one.īefore you take the major steps to founding a kingdom, the player is able to send a companion to go about and tell Calradia the player's plans should they decide to become King.
