I kind of expected a starting scenario that lets you begin as subjects of the Empire or something with a pawn with a Title from the Empire and some of their gear, similar to how Tribals have their own special start. It would be great to have a start that gets you into the DLC content straight away.
It also seems like there is no way to edit a scenario to start with a title or the Empire's favor.
External link →The game by itself is designed to kickstart the royalty progression quite early with an intro quest.
The issue with depending on a scenario to do this is that now the other scenarios are quasi-broken. The solution had to be something that worked with any scenario. And once that's established, the value of a new scenario didn't seem that great. It's not a bad idea at all it just wasn't the best of everything we had to work on. I suspect most people would prefer to get more quests or more psycasts, etc.
