Is the AI stealing Generals using it's princesses?

I've not seen this yet in 3 games.

Also why are ALL princesses born BUTT UGLY. They almost all start out with 0 hearts... I think avergae should be 5 or so... otherwise when you marry one you always get: "Wife is wretch!" Sad....

I had it happen to me, however my general resisted her advances. At first when I saw the Spanish Princess approach my general I thought uh-oh, am I going to lose my general? However after the turn ended I received a message saying "Foreign Princess Disagraced!". Underneath was her name Urraca el Valiente, below that was a picture of a Knight (my general) with a Princess sitting behind him on his horse.

not really, "charm" is spealled wrong and if indeed he withstood her charm she wouldnt even be his wife.

What's the retirement age of Princesses? And shouldn't charm be going down with age (to a certain extent)?

Princesses definitely are a form of assassins with a bonus: You get to keep the guy. Build one up through diplomacy, and then marry a rival's best general. If you lose her, woohoo, build another diplomat.

Yeah... too bad we only get to do it once before all the girls gets scared and hides away only to be courted by countrymen...

Or are you one of the lucky ones that actually get more than once princess per game?

Oh dammit, ok I did a failure. But hey I am German :p And well, then I misunderstood it. Then she is now in his private harem

And no, I don't think the charm goes down. It doesn't make sense. Women are always sexy

I lost my only princess trying to steal a French general. Then to make matters worse a French princess came along the next turn and stole one of mine.

I believe once your princess reaches 40 you get a message saying Past Childbearing age or something like that and they go away to become nuns

Their stat isn't level of atractiveness, it's "Charm", a learnt skill.

You can't become more pretty by practice, as if it were some kind of skill, but you can at learning how to manipulate men.
