Reincarnation of Ktistes Mithridates Kianos

**Imperator Invictus** · 03-26-2010, 12:59

In my pontic campaign, I am in 205 BC, the current basileos is a nephew of the founder (Ktistes) Mithridates Kianos(of Cius) and his only son is born in this year with the name "Ktistes Mithridates Kianos".

It can’t be coincidence because Ktistes(The Founder) is only the first basileos, his heirs will keep the name Kianos but not Ktistes

So my forth king will be the reincarnation of the first.....I will build those pontic "Statues of the Basileos" all across my empire when he will reclame kingship

I do not think that my empire needs a "second foundation" at the moment

So, you better believe in reincarnation...

Haha lucky you!

I was also glad when a third Diodotos was born with Baktria.

But I don't think I will be so lucky that my Seleukos II Kallinikos will get a Keraunos, Megas, Seleukos or Antiochos as son...

In a 1.1 SPQR campaign, Lucius Julius Ceasar had two sons, Lucius (2) and... Lucius (0).
The father deserves a "Unimaginative" trait.

Haha, yeah.

I remember when I bribed a family member from the Ptolemaic faction, and he later had a son. However, in RTW 1.5, sons of bribed generals are assigned a random surname (because my faction didn't have "Ptolemaios" listed as a surname in descr_names), so I had to go dig around in the descr_names file and changed "Onchesmios" (the random surname) to "Ptolemaios." Worked fine, and there is now a branch of the Makedonian Ptolemaic royal family commanding armies in Iberia and Gaul.
