I have only 2 remaining Baktrios FMs, one of them had 2 daughters and the other none at all. This aggravates me, as he has a mistress, herbalist and a trait that gives +2 (I think) to fertility, yet he is 49 years old and nothing (no flaccid trait or anything like it)
Their father died at like 72, had over 25 battles, subdued Saka, killed the Seleukid King and many more nice things, so I would not like it if his name died with the 2 bureaucrat brats.
Is there anything I could do to force them?
I'm afraid not! Well, you could try to give him as much ancillaries increasing the chance of birth (I believe those exist) as possible, but it's no guarantee.
I already gave him the mistress and herbalist and he has not succeeded yet :(
I can't give him a doctor. I could only swap him for the herbalist, but I see no point. Are there any others? because I can't find any on my other FM.
edit: I checked again and I feel so cheated! he has the fruitful, healthy wife, won't take no for an answer traits plus the herbalist and mistress. That is +6 fertility! :furious3:
I guess it's just not ment to be :)
There is a ratio in RTW about FM's/regions occupied, so if you have just the starting province, you probably won't get another birth (or adoption) until one of them dies. Expanding helps a lot, or you can try to bribe a FM from another faction.

Will make him prolific!
See if that helps/works?
I will try the trait and perhaps the bribe. I am not sure I can afford one, though.
my advice is build the stinkest ship you can board it with all your useless fm and go pirate hunting as was mentioned you must pay attention to your family tree to make sure you don´t have too many useless fm´s for the amount of regions you got
Do mercenary generals affect this as well?
of course, too much merc generals will push named character/region ratio bigger, and made less birth as the result
Well, I only have 2 of them.
if you only have 8 or 9 regions, that's a big part!
Damn. I did not know that, I thought they were separate. I've just taken the whole of North-East Africa as the Romani and I've put type 4 govs in every city as well as merc generals to control the region until I can get decent reinforcements in. Looks like I'll be pirate hunting soon...
well, don't be too worried; just keep expanding.
besides, you know you can't rush people when it comes to such...intimate...matters :clown:
Err I don't think that Generals have a significant influence on that. In my Romani campaign I changed the trait file to delete the Impostor-trait and the EDB to make it possible to recruit Client Rulers outside of Italy (all governments except the Italien one). Except for Italy, Sicily, Corsica and Sardinia all provinces (i have a total of 38-40) are ruled by Client Rulers and I have 3-4 Generals moving around. Though, I have more then 20 FMs, more to come of age and my female FMs still get marriage proposals.
Merc generals don't have any influence on the family's birth-region ratio at all. Cute Wolf is wrong. This has been stated many times before in the past. Do a forum search.
excuse me, quick search in TWC proves that you are the one who wrong...Quote:

Keep it friendly, please. I guess CW simply linked to the wrong thread.
You can always spawn a character by script no?
Isn't that cheating?Quote:

Teach us, Moros! Teach us now!
Indeed teach us! Would it be a command console or creating a script that can be activated in game?
That's great news to me, since I've done exactly the same thing as you did, except that I'm the Epeirotai.Quote:
