游戏中总共有三种对于大部分行动都是必不可少的资源（Resources）：威望、虔诚和金钱。每种资源都可以用在不同的事情上，并且都可以在事件中花费和获得。
威望
威望代表了一个角色的社会地位。它主要由持有头衔所获得。威望可以被用于封臣关系，决议和宣战上。
威望等级
角色的威望等级衡量着他们的声望水平以及每个人对他们的看法。角色每次获得威望时，都将朝着下一个威望等级前进，这会带来各种好处。因采取不荣誉的举动而失去威望会降低角色的威望等级进度。如果角色没有足够的威望，将会降低威望等级。

虔诚

Income
Monthly gold income comes from multiple sources.
Domain tax is generated by a character's personal holdings. The holder of the barony receives all of the barony's domain tax. It can be increased by the following:
- Character's Stewardship skill (+2% per level)
- Buildings
- Collect Taxes councilor task (+0.5% per Stewardship level)
- County development (+0.5% per level)
Vassal tax is given to a title holder's direct liege. The amount given depends on the vassal's obligations:
- Castles are limited to normal obligations, giving 10% of their domain tax to the liege.
- Cities are held by republics, who provide 20% taxes.
- With the Lay Clergy doctrine, churches function identically to castles.
- With the Theocratic doctrine, churches are held directly by a Realm Priest and are taxed under a separate system.
- Vassal counts, dukes and kings provide tax based on their individual vassal contracts.
Realm Priests receive vassal income at a rate of 25% from Realm Priests belonging to their liege's direct vassals. They also provide up to 50% of their income from directly-controlled churches and their vassal priests to their feudal liege, scaled based on opinion.
The taxable income of feudal vassals (count/duke/king) is their own domain tax, as well as vassal tax from their own vassals. If the vassal receives income from a Realm Priest, this income is not included as taxable income.[1]
