Thread: inquisitor kills my king... realistic?

Lok Thar!

Today it happened the second time that a bad inquisitor killed my king... my king was a great hero, but his faith wasnt heroic ;) I think he had 1 point in piety, not much I know.

I dont think this is realistic. Ok, sometimes many great men were killed by the church because of their lack of faith, but kings? As far as I know kings had often much problems with the pope and the church, e.g. england, but the church never killed a powerful monarch. they had other ways to punish a king(dom).

do you think this is a realistic way? Does it is too easy for inquisitors kill important persons of your kingdom (king, prince)?

by the way:

How do you improve your piety/faith-rating of your generals? I tried with good relations to the pope, I let my generals and kings in cities with cathedrals and I send them in cities which are building church buildings, but they never improve their ininitial piety-rating... hmpf!

Patch 1.2 should introduce settings that prevent inquisitors from baking your leader or heir to a crisp well done.

Realistically Inquisitors had no power to condem you to death and they certainly couldn't attack high ranking members of the aristocracy without some pretty strong prrof.

This has already been discussed a fair deal and the new patch will fix things

Just remember that the inquisition fried almost the entire knights templar... Including the grand master, who had as much power as most kings.

The Templars were actually fried because a King indebted to them asked the inquisition nicely...
