State titles and whatnot

**Julianus Flavius** · September 26, 2009, 03:59 AM

In the time I've spent away from this mod, I got to thinking, do the state titles die with the bearer, or are they tied to particular settlements (For example, if a position becomes vacant can I just send a general to a particular city, for example, Alexandria for the Comes Aegyptus, to get the title).
If they do die, how can I keep the titles safe? there's like 35 of them and I don't want to keep looking for the bearers to ensure they aren't being attacked or anything.
Thanks.

When a character dies, any titles that he may have had die with him, BUT, another character may receive this title if he satisfies the right conditions ala, command, influence etc.

In fact I'm finalising ALL roman administrative and military titles so that they are linked to their local provinces. So a character can only gain the title of Come Gallia if, 1) cetain Gallic cities are in roman hands and 2) the character resides in that particular city. This is to prevent a character who is in Antioch gaining the title of Dux Britainnae.

Of course you can exchange titles between characters but the characters have to be in the same city.

Hope this clarifies things

There is one error I have to report, I had a character receive the Dux Brittanicum ancillary in a city in the east, I think Antioch...

And that is why I am redoing the roman administrative and military titles so that they a re province specific. They will be available in a future patch sometime soon.
