版本 Released - 2.6 for CK2 1.06b
論壇/貼吧 Link

Originally one of the "big three" mods (the other 2 being CK2Plus and Project Balance) that came out quickly after release, its creator disappeared for a while and as the game was patched and the mod increasingly broken, most of the previous users of this mod went to one of the other 2 and/or other newer released mods.

However, recently GAGA came back and stated he was going to update the mod for compatibility and did so; It has been updated to 1.06b, and has not received another.
