Hey guys I would appreciate some feedback on the marriage aspect of the game. As a new convert to the MTW game I am completely hooked and want to explore it thoroughly so that I can play the game to the hilt.

My first question is this... I have been having a lot of daughters and marrying them off to Princes in other realms. Aside from the marriage forming an alliance will I ever really see it paying off with having a claim to their lands due to the mix of our bloodlines? If you've seen this how long did it take? I imagine she'd have to marry the Prince and hopefully he one day becomes king and has children and perhaps in a civil war I could lay claims?

My second question... If I marry my daughter to a loyal general will they then have children with blood ties to the royal family?

Alright, thanks a lot and Have a Great Weekend everyone!
