Family Tree

[Kendji]

There are rumors on a family tree and been for a while. Plus on Discord there has been tidbits on introduction of mortality and a need to secure ones succession. The map update will according to the q/a be named Dynasty update, Dynasty being a word refering to a ruling family.

I'm curious if we will get a family tree, will it be more like 3K or one of the older 'can ignore feature' family trees or something new?

Yes the 3K model is imo the best so far that tw has made. There the first child gets to be heir, but the player can name another if memory serves.
However, twp has great court mechanics. I which if the heir a child and the sitting king suddenly dies there could be court manuverings, maybe civil war to control the king. Like in 3K when factions vyed to control the child emperor

Also follow on this, my original post and your reply to that.

With the succession stuff in mind i think the similar aspects to Thrones of Britannia estates mechanic could be useful, giving titles to your generals, family members as they become viceroys or minor kings etc. Especially on death this could create swings in balance as potential civil wars start, rebellions or breakaways from your faction being possible. Though some paint the map purists wont like this i bet.

Also with the collecting names, regions etc i suggested early as goals to expand domain there could be rewards. It doesn't need to be buffs, it could simply be titles, cosmetic attire, battle standards, starting military traditions, making a wonder or something... lots of ideas.

Sofia proved once again they are not doing half baked things. Instead of just copy pasting a family tree structure from Attila or so they introduced the entire new dynasty concept and integrated it with the cross-faction family tree from 3K while balancing it for a fully parametrizable turns-per-year range from 1 to 12.

These guys are on fire.
