Too many adoptions?

[Slicendice]

The campaign I started today I have refused all adoptions. Henry tried and tried to adopt every dreague he could find and finally he started making babies. All 3 sons of William have children although about 60% of them are female. I did accept 1 Man of the Hour and I married him to the first daughter who appeared. I hope he enjoyed that hot 16 year old!

I'm at about turn 40 now. I took Jerusalem a long time ago and it is almost stable enough that I can take my faction heir out. BTW if you send 2 generals on a crusage in the same army they both get the ancillaries and bonus piety. Of course I only had 1 to spare this time.

I generally don't put governors in a city unless there is nothing else to do with them.

Anyway, I have 2 marriages back and forth with Denmark and the Bastids just attacked me. So much for the "taking marriage alliances serious" part. Oh well. They are currently excommunicated now. Guess I will get a quick Crusade in for some easy bonus'.

So far I have enough generals but France never attacked me this game. I don't have tons of leaders but that's fine I only need a few. Plus having and using just a few means they tend to get better faster.
