Question about modding the royal family

**guvidus** · 01-28-2008, 11:49

What i loved about the old MTW was the fact that all the boys and the princesses could marry outside the kingdom so to speak. Now you can arange mariages only for the king&heir, and only the daughters of the king and his heir are born as agents, get charm, be usefull. The other females in the royal family are just in icon in a family, waiting for a good husband.
Anyone has any sugestion about this? Is there any mod who can help me with this or something?

Thank you in advance.

You could try asking this in Medieval 2: Total war modding subforum. Increases the chance of getting answer. As far as I know, there is no way to to do this, but, unless it is hardcoded, there should be some attribute relating to this, and I am sure that some nimble minds could figure it out.

Unless you favor killing your leader/heir whenever their daughters are already princesses to get another character's daughters to become princesses, there unfortunately is no method of achieving what you ask for. Both heir mechanics and princess mechanics are hardcoded and have very very limited moddability.

This is a shame because the more members of your family the more generals you get - it can be slow sometimes, I also feel that there are not eneogh princesses
to poach for your prince and I have never seen a 10 charm princess which I am sure would be awesome.

I have too many princesses and too little boys. Because of strict family values, I only allow my princesses to marry to similar religion prince. However, I do not have much similar religion fraction left on the map! Is there anyway to get more boys than girls? Perhaps the girls in my fraction are too "hardworking"!

Ratio is hardcoded.

Many people have asked that question throughout history, and tried many ridiculous potions and superstitious rituals to get the desired result. Of course it was always blamed on the wife for not bearing any sons.
