I think its a lot like shogun, once your last heir dies, thats it. Of course I could be wrong, but maybe...ah, no reason to speculate on my part.

The elves are forever in the undying lands unfortunately. Maybe we could start a conquest of thier lands though... http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif

I hope you can continue with out heirs, with a cousin, a general, a ruler voted by some infuluential character...or perhaps through civil war...that would be much more fun than just starting over...

Can you make a general or something like that an heir. Cause in real life if there are no heirs left a new house takes over England.

Some generals can take over, they have to of royal blood... How that is I don't know. I guess we have to see.

but if somone could keep taking over the reign, wouldnt it be unrealistic while your in the 20th centuary with the height of technology being your cannon, and you havent advanced in like 500 years

I mean during the game like 1300.

That wouldn't be any fun if it just ended.... Time limits just annoy me. It's kind of like saying, "Oh we ran out of content so we have to cut your gameplay short". I like playing nice long games.

400 years is so long. If you havent won your self you would have been beaten most very likely.

Will individual soldiers in you army, say a ND Samurai for example live and die throughout the game so that their honor level will drop due to green recruits filling the holes? If not I think this is a good idea...

A general of royal blood can be a cousin to an heir or a cousin of the King or something like that. Perhaps an uncle to an 18 yr old King or something like that.

Do you know this for sure?

I mean I know royal blood people are around, but I wonder how the game will implement this.

It says on the website that Generals of royal blood can take over. The question I still have is how does it determined if they have royal blood?

GAH!

Better yet...

Your noble general is to take over. But, your daughter is married to a foreign king. Are your lands SPLIT between your daughter and your general? That is, will half of your lands go over to the other king?

And if you have 3 daughters married out, and a general, do you lose 3 quarters of your kingdom, with each daughter taking 1/4th for their hubbies?

GAH!

Geez... now that I think about it... I wonder if there are any "gay" kings/nobles in the game... That would make for a troubling lack of heirs if they rule... Or what if your line dies off and a gay general wants your throne!

(Surely such a thing would be listed as a vice...)

You expect to live after 400 years? The Geisha would come and finish you. Yes, the geisha from Japan. Will come and kill each of you!

That does bring up some interesting questions Vanya. What if your queen has a love affair with the Spaniard King and has a child? Will your lands mysteriously go to Spain after you die?

We might see hostile takeovers of kingdoms by fornication. WHEN WILL IT END!

First of all illicit children would be a grand amendment...if they are not already there...secondly...let's play the game this way....history is made up of numerous events each giving way to the next one in a sort of natural progression of things...now, in game terms history can only advance if you win...therefore if it takes you 800 years to win the game the dark ages will not end until the 1700's at which time we will have the reniassance....now, for all those complaining the only drawback will be a few less years to enjoy the sun...
