what is the crusader king trait and how do i get it?

If I understand what you are asking: you have to lead troops that are on the target lands during a Crusade/Jihad/GHW of your religion.

I think it is given to the king or queen of the crusade target after a crusade, I don't think you can get it yourself unless you choose the option to play as the ruler after you win the land.

Ya from what i can tell, it is given to the chosen benefactor of a won crusade, as i have never gained it myself but the one time i chose a benefactor, they had gotten it and i see the Ai's get it all the time.

It good for when your ruler and current heir is really crappy but u have a good relative that ud rather play as instead, make them the benefactor, win the crusade and get that trait which then makes that character a beast, play as them instead, and take back your original lands from your original ruler or his heir and then go from there.

Since I started playing this game and joined the crusade for the first time, Ive been wanting to get this trait. Been crusading every game since then. When I finally got the kingdom of Jerusalem from the crusade I was very disappointed not to get the trait. Are you guys saying theres no way to get the crusader king trait as a player? Makes me kinda sad :(

You cant get it directly as a player as only someone chosen as a benefactor in a crusade can get the trait, then after the crusade, if you win and that person gains the target kingdom, you get an event asking if you want to keep your current character, or switch to your benefactor that you chose with their new kingdom and their new juicy Crusader King/Queen trait.

A Crusade participants beneficiary will get the trait if they are granted the kingdom in dispute by the Pope. The only way for the player to get this trait is to choose the option to play as your beneficiary after the Crusade has been won.

If you personally lead troops during the crusade you will get the ‘Crusader’ trait (it seems to be time locked, lead troops at the start of the war)

Aah oke, I was a self serving crusader. Dont you guys think that the trait should be gaineble for a self serving crusader? Like Bohemond of Taranto and Baldwin of Boulogne
