Crusader Kings II DLC & Patch Next Month

Paradox Interactive announces Sword of Islam, an upcoming DLC pack for Crusader Kings II that will add the ability to play as Muslim rulers in the strategy sequel. They say the DLC and a patch to support it will be released next month:

The DLC will release at the same time as the next hefty patch which adds new features to the game, such as an expansion of the map into Mali-Songhay, differentiation on strong and weak claims, new plot, expanded combat and more.

Sword of Islam enables players to rule as the Muslim lords, delivering a wealth of specific new mechanics distinctive to these rulers, creating a whole new gameplay experience. Laws, marriage, holding, traits , titles and more will work completely differently.

Paradox Development Studio will post a detailed development diary each Friday where they’ll elaborate on the new features of the patch and the DLC in the official Crusader Kings II forum: http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?551-Crusader-Kings-II

There are mods that add the ability to control Muslim nations, as well as Pagan ones and I think there's a mod that adds Judaism and lets you play as a Jewish ruler. However, there is of course limits to what modders can do, so although other religions can be opened up, you can't mod in the ability to have more than one wife, for example; it's highly modable but it's not open source.

I must check out the Game of Thrones mod, before it gets lawyered to death.
