**Hre2015** · October 19, 2018, 04:22 PM

Oh . i kinda play normal medieval 2 . hre my faction and i using it as Papal Faction, i'm the pope

**Gigantus** · October 20, 2018, 04:49 AM

Small note - without a family tree you won't have children, and princesses are children. So adjust the descr_sm_factions entry accordingly.

**Hre2015** · October 20, 2018, 07:34 AM

But if u wanna be papal faction with hre u need disable the family tree . i have generals thx to a small mod , i recruit generals from city with hre since i cant have children (Family tree is no).
