    just unbelievable....

    You managed to get from ethnicities in EB2 to USA vs France vs Germany...great.

    BTT:
    IIRC this feature is already implemented in EB1 for some factions. If you play some hellenic faction and conquer i.e. the home lands of epirus, you can get husbands/man of the hour with the ethnic trait.

    I do actually think that this should be restricted in EB2. Most cultures would only relied on local authorities by some degree, a full ascension in the leading circle of a faction (that is what the FM are representing) was more a exception (correct me if I'm wrong here).
    Furthermore is it not yet revealed by the team how they will use the client-ruler system of EB1 and if they use it.

    Yes, but it's limited. You wouldn't, as KH, get any Romani or Getai FM's. Perhaps this ethnicity thing may be a tad unrealistic in some ways. I wish Moros answered my OP rather than spam my thread with an off-topic post.

    I think this kind of traits could be triggered with double trigger. means when someone from that faction conquer a region (a trigger with condition , then a trigger for a new ethnicity type in suitors is relased.)

    forgive my poor example, haven't test that yet... at least I know in M2TW, the Princess also has trait that determine their suitors.... (maybe this was an example, how a Makedonian strategos can get Avernii guy as his son-in-law, after he took Gergovia)

    ;------------------------------------------

    Trigger AverniiGuyWillMarryYourGirl
    WhenToTest GeneralCaptureSettlement

    Condition SettlementName (Gergovia)
    and FactionType (Makedon)

    Affects AverniiGuyMarryYourGirl 1 Chance 100

    ;------------------------------------------

    Trigger YourGirlCanGetAverniiGuy
    WhenToTest CharacterComesOfAge
    and AgentType = princess

    Condition FatherTrait AverniiGuyMarryYourGirl > 0

    Affects ThisGirlCanGetAverniiGuy 1 Chance 100

    ;------------------------------------------

    Trigger AverniiGuyProposedForMarriage
    WhenToTest OfferedForMarriage

    Condition PrincessTrait ThisGirlCanGetAverniiGuy > 0

    Affects Avernii 1 Chance 50
    Affects Handsome 2 Chance 100
    Affects GoodLeader 1 Chance 100
    Affects TacticalSkill 1 Chance 100

    ;------------------------------------------

    (get a chance to get Avernii suitors (normally makedon princess don't), because his father know some good looking and handsome warriors, and maybe some avernii get his proper attention)

    EDIT: And I know that if we did this kind of double trigger, any faction without princess can't get expanded ethnicity

    This would be cool, if it was more general. I'm pretty sure the Greeks didn't care about what particular tribe a Celt was when he married into a Greek city state, and vice versa.

    Yes. Whereas in a Gallic faction, there would be many Gallic ethnicities, the Romani might only have one standard Gallic ethnicity.

    We can made each ethnicity (sub ethnicity) available to each faction on the condition they conquer a different city / region, so there is no need to give a "standard" ethnicity, such as plain "hellene", we can add "Spartiates" "Athenai" "Kres" "Rhodios" etc.... to almost all faction, given they get the proper regions, it just a matter of trait triggers...
