Dying character & no more family :c

[elektronn3]

So my character is sick...

After a lifetime of endless battles, it is finally time to go.

I would have been happy to leave a huge kingdom behind to my clan, but my spouse, my brothers & sisters died fighting the Khuzait.

Now I only have one sister remaining and I can't find any option to make her my heir (I'm not dead yet).

Any clue ? :)

Haha face the doom!

Khuzaits got my brother as well, and first wife. I got wise to it though, had a bunch of kids, second wife, and should be good to keep going. Unfortunately, I should have wiped out the Khuzaits by the time they are adults, but the plan is to bribe in a large Khuzait clan and expel and exterminate them later, so that may be their inheritance.

Once you die it should give you the option to jump to her.

EDIT: to ensure your dynasty, a really good idea is to get your wife pregnant, and then put her in an incredibly secure town or castle (300-400+ garrison, level 3 walls). Keep it away from the front line. Baby will be born, wife stays alive. If you were to die, just jump to wife.

Also, try to marry those in their 20s when you are in your 30s, it gives you more time and you can always jump to her.

I did not pick my sister as heir, will I be able to play her once I die ?

I've read some threads about people getting stuck and not playing anyone.

Don't you pick heir after the death of your main character?

My current one I will play until dead, but he probably has twenty years yet.

Don't know why they have enabled death yet when the dynasty system isn't fully implemented yet. Sometimes you can't even pick your children as they don't spawn into the game when they come of age. They don't even have skills or get equipment either. Lords running around in their jimmies leading armies.
I don't know about other people but I would only like deaths in game when I actually pick the death option.

I didn't know death was enabled . I have not played in in a few months . Going to start a new game.

It's only natural deaths when the death option isn't enabled. It can cripple some clans as they have a fair few older nobles. Like Pharon's clan. Him and his wife die very early in games which leaves them with three members and no way for other children.
Some clans need more younger children at the start to come of age and take over.

It makes very interesting campaigns, so I'm glad it is an option.

a Pop-up screen will appear when you die and will let you play as that character. In this case it be only your sister on the list. Choosing an heir is quite misleading because thats not how it works. You choose someone as your heir in real life before even you get old. So in game its just ''Choose a new character'' screen. So dont worry.

Good they delay because it gives you right up until the line for a child to make it to being an adult, and be chosen. Starting a character at 18 would be great.
