I believe EBFertile 1, is the one we use to make the Romans and other similar factions super-infertile.

Can I ask, why you did that? (:

Because the Family Tree for the Romans doesn't represent a family, it would be foolish and one-sided to do so. It represents powerful individuals within many families, whose connections to one another are more along the lines of adoption (not as we understand it today, of course, but rather more like a political adoption). Thus we stop children from popping up in the tree, not because Romans didn't have children, but because they don't fit into the family tree system we have.

My romans have plenty of kids. Or are you talking about the future release?

Nope this is in the current release.

Theres still a chance they will have kids, just a less chance than other factions.

At the moment in my Mak campaign I have roughly 5-10 (Cant remember exactly, havent played today) more male family members over 16 than provinces. A few turns ago I had 6 in Athens learning away. Its just chance.
