Dispose of excess priests

[WhiskeyGhost]

Wouldn't it be better to just scatter them singly or in small groups in pagan\heathen lands, let them turn heretic, and then send your favoured priests in to whack them as cardinal training?

Then you can retrain them and wash-rinse-repeat until you have a good part of the College of Cardinals and people in line for the papacy.

There's nothing like dumping 8-9 of your cardinals in a 100% islamic territory as a prelude to a Crusade, and in one turn it becomes 57% catholic.

Unrest? What unrest? They DEMAND you liberate them!

The downside of the heretic thing, is you lose points towards a Theologians guild, and maybe even rep with the pope

When pumping piety, dumping lots of priests in a hurry is handy. Send them off to the hinterlands and wait? No way. Feed the fishes. Sole food!
