Odd happenings in my current campaign

[Ironside]

Getting zero star sons from good kings is known as the wrap-around bug. It seems that when a son gets 10+ stars, the game cannot really handle it and the hier gets 0 stars instead. Thats why the sons got exellent stats in the other areas. My record is 5 out of 6 sons getting 0 stars, when the king was an 8 star.

Getting more than 0 stars on the sons seems to indicate lousy son though. BrSpiritus they had lousy other stats too? Check the influence of your king, might be low.

Piety and influence can bug out occationally too.

If you launch multiple jihads (10+) then you'll basically end up with random piety.

Influence can occationally drop to 0 and then recover back to 9 by itself during some turns. Can be annoying if you gets sons during that time.

Thanks for the replies. luckily I got 2 more sons who were 8 and 6 stars respectively. Another odd occurance though is that the GH appeared in Armenia, never seen that haoppen before. This game is starting to get wacky, I wonder what will happen next

My king had maxed out influence allied with just about everybody and I'v come to the assistance of allies. Just a weird bug I guess. Low stats I can put up with it's the crack brained vice that gets me. The newer set of heirs don't have any vices so it actually worked out well enough in the end. My 5 star general though is another story. He became an unhinged loon and I had to remove him because he was having a negative effect on his men. Of course this is in the newly liberated province of Antioch and my armies there are beginning to doubt the success of their occupation.
