    Question

    hey,
    Just wondering, do you know when you marry one of your heirs to a foreign princess and it says that it may give you a right to that factions land later on. Is it just words or does it actually occur?

    In all my MTW games this has not happened to me a single time.

    Me either. And I've been allied with many factions that I saved from extinction more than a few times. I didn't get a single province ever.

    I think thats just it...you dont want to save them from extinction.

    I was married into a family where the king and heirs got cutoff and seiged to death and rebels took over the remaining provinces....the next turn I got a revolt in one state with forces loya to me. It was quite odd.

    It actually happens, but only a very slight chance. I haven't had it happen in any of my campaigns, but several gamers reported this to be true. I guess you have to do a little forum search...

    Well it really does happen. Its something like you marry then the king dies and his heirs in battle but not in their last province then some land goes straight to you.

    I think it works so that the princess is the daughter of the current king, and if all the guy heirs have died then the husbands of the king's princesses become the next heirs, a.k.a. married generals and princes of foreign lands.
