Issue I realised...

Haven't been playing MIITW and something's just occured to me that I used to do habitually in Rome - choose my faction heir!
I can't see the little button in the FM screen, is it a rollback to the original Medieval where you couldn't choose faction heirs?

No they are choose automatically, the person you adopt 1 day can be the fh the next day

Its one of the features they should have included in M2TW. Incompetant kings often have incompetant children, and I have to manually kill the family member to save my royal line.

Oh man, definitely not what I wanted to hear

Someone should make a mod to fix this!

It makes no difference to me!

I have no respect for many of my family members as I am the one that does all the work all the time, at least when I play Rome I develop a kind of bond with my best leaders

You forget the 1 defense point per command star bonus to your troops. With an amazing general even peasants and basic militias can defeat stronger troops.

Hmm..

That doesn't seem to work for me

It only occurs during a battle, so the effects are not visible. But trust me, they are there.

**Leeham991** · October 18, 2008, 06:03 PM

Ahh then...

I am too caught up in directing my men around in battle to notice much more than the obvious extra morale of having a real general in the battle.

But as I am only just beginning to truly use the game engine (my current campaign being the 1st one to use merchants, though I have finished the game with 4 other factions) So maybe I will notice it more while I play in the next few weeks.

The first time I noticed it is when I suddenly started to win all my 1 on 1 fights with the same troop types fighting each other, with equal armour upgrades and each unit with no experience bonus.
