Hello everyone
I'm new to this game and this site. I just bought the game a couple weeks ago and have been addicted ever since. My wife is ready to divorce me and my 9 month year old is already bored of watching from my lap...not enough action.
But anyway...now to the important stuff. I was playing my second real campaign and I'm playing as Irish on hard. After a slow start in which the Vikings pillaged me for a few years I was finally building up. It was around 915 AD and I was finishing off the Scots in two epic battles. My next move would have been to break my alliance with the Picts and take all of northern England. I was looking very good though.
Well after my battle ended my King up and dies at 55 years old. His two sons were 13 and 11 but he had like 5 brothers scattered around the islands. The game said with no heirs that the kingdom was split up and I lose I was so shocked that the game ended so suddenly. Four days all for not But my question is...the manual said if I had brothers than I can continue. Why didn't then with four other brothers to rule??
