Marriage and children question

[defendurname]

Hi im about 100 years into my scotland campaign and ive got a problem. Usually my generals get wives soon and then start having children however in my third-fourth generation only 2 people have gotten married and i only have about 3 kids on the way...my unmarried generals are getting old and my king and prince arent married either. Does the game set a limit to the amount of generals u can have and therefore limits the marriages/children?

Yes and its quite frustrating from a realism point of view.

Suddenly you go from 1-2 kids being born per turn to nothing over a long period despite having many generals married.

If this wasn't hardcoded, maybe TLR could have more children being born but some dying young as well as older generals becoming syphilitic ( I can hear the 'hey that's my best General!' cries already.)

well meybe what you should do is only marry people you want to have offspring from and any other generals hired.....


works for me!!
