I thought that maybe these fluctuations might prove unbalanced or annoying but the player is given more than enough warning to adapt. Occasionally you get a whole new dynasty coming into power, usually as a result of civil war but also mongol invasion, resetting your accumulated grace back to zero. There’s a degree of randomness involved but the game gives you enough time to adapt to any new realities as they come up. Things like civil unrest and golden ages are possible, too, affecting how much China will be capable of responding to attacks on its vassals on the game map. Some emperors may choose to close the silk road down, hurting all those who depend on its trade while others may choose to expand militarily. Aside from your current grace and the current reigning emperor, the most important thing to keep an eye on is the status of trade and internal stability of the empire. There’s a little button that opens up a small screen with the current status of the Chinese Empire. Once you have enough grace, you can ask for the emperor to grant you boons which range from mildly useful artifacts to prestigious brides and even requesting invasions to try to knock out other powerful empires. The main currency for this interaction is grace, which can be earned by sending the emperor tribute such as eunuchs and gold. They’ve opted to make the Celestial Empire an off-map presence and gave the ability for states close enough to interact with the emperor. Instead of adding East Asia and China to the map like they did with India, Paradox Development Studios have opted to do something different with Jade Dragon. Jade Dragon follows on that tradition, fleshing out one of the last regions of the map to be a little barren and boring. Whole regions have been added and different government types and regions made playable.
