Do an RPG set during CK2, where AI behavior is based on recorded CK2 games. Live the life of a peasant or soldier under the reign of The Awful People Who Play CK2. Most realistic AI ever

This is really professional trolling I have to say.

My guess is Barbarians at the gates. The twist is that it’s nothing to do with the dark ages and is actually based on the book of the same name about the disastrous private equity takeover of RJR by Nabisco. The “goods” are tobacco.
