well, If I am to be serious... I usually edit the number of kids a family can have, from four to three... that way an early baby boom without the expansion of the kingdom is OK... If you get to many children early on and don't expand your kingdom you WILL stop having children... open descr_campaign_dp in the /data folder (MAKE A BACKUP!!!) and go to line 69 through 87... here you can change the numer of children, when children is of age, maximum age before generals croak, when daughters can't marry anymore und so weiter...
I usually go for the max 3 kids and sometimes I lower the max age... therefore you will have a good birth/death ratio for a good turtle campaign...
