I don't think it's possible but I could be wrong.

well seems like nobody knows for sure
i guess i'll have to try it

The code could be added, for sure, because MED2 and RTW have many similar features.

But concerning the result, I really don't know...

Impossible unless there are very well hidden commands.

damn.. well then does anybody know if it is possible to change the shadowed faction via script?
e.g. faction x has more regions than faction y then faction z shadowes x
if y has more y is shadowed
possible?

Don't think so, one of the components is descr_sm_factions.txt.

After the faction name I think you have to stick in 'shadowing <factionname>' at the end of the shadow faction, and then 'shadowed_by <factionname>', or something like that, after the shadowed faction's name.

And I don't see any command mentioned in the kingdoms.exe for changing shadowing arrangements when I view it as text.
