KOTR Postmortem and Next-Gen Rules Discussion

[FactionHeir]

I think that the new rule may be too stringent in that the natural born sons of the avatar that dies may well go completely empty if they are not player controlled even if of age. That doesn't seem fair nor historical at all.

Example: Grand Duke Nukem dies and has (a) son(s) (that is not taken by another player and of age). All his wealth and provinces and retinue go to his vassals or the leader rather than to his son(s). Doesn't seem to make too much sense unless the son(s) have mental traits.

Maybe limit the rule so that not everything can be bequeathed to the player's next character, but a province or two can, depending on station at time of death. And this to only apply if the next character is already of age and unassigned or nearly of age (14 or higher) and unassigned. Otherwise it will go to the player's nearest bloodrelative, or if there are none, the emperor.
