I’m playing a Pahlava campaign, and it is 209BC. I’m expanding slowly but steadily, and everything has seemed to be going pretty well. However, by biggest problem now is that the children of Arsaces seem completely uninterested in producing children. Considering that Arsaces died about a decade ago, and his brother’s only male son was killed fighting the Saka before he had children, the two sons of Arsaces are the only Ashkani left. And one is 47, the other 36. So I’m really concerned that the royal line will die out. What can I do?
It seems like the problem is that one has a sickly wife, and the other is infertile. But I gave them both physicians in their retinues. Also, I have tried to get some of my less needed family members killed, because I know the game tries to give an equal number of family members to provinces. But it’s hard to get those FMs killed, especially with their late cataphract bodyguards. And I need most of my family members to govern cities. Even worse, killing the few FMs I managed has not helped. Meanwhile, the Daha members of my family seem to be breeding like rabbits, and they are taking up all the room.
So what are my options? Should I just accept that the House of Arsaces will die off? Or can I do something in the game, or even modify the game files somehow?
