Age limit for having kids?

[deathsage1223]

I’m nervous my wife has become barren and I have no sons to lead after I’m gone . Anybody know the age limit for fertility?

[Shoebsy]

I believe the limit is 45 years old for women, I don't know if the male side makes any difference or not. after 35 it is an RNG roll against you, after 45 I think it's impossible less that's changed

[Iorwerth ap Dderwen Wyllt]

45 the chance of pregnancy becomes 0%, every year after the age of 18 it decreases. I think at 18 it's around 13% and decrease by 0.5% every year after. But take what I say with a pinch of salt as it may have changed since I looked it up over a year ago

Well that’s not good wife is 54…
Though I do have 1 daughter am I still okay or is the kingdom done for.

[Shoebsy]

Female hiers are still very possible. I think in bannerlord it's more acceptive than Warband is not much punishment for female leaders.

[deathsage1223]

Phew okay, next question would that mean I’m going to be playing as a pregnant warlord in the coming seasons?

Hm. Might have to refrain from marrying her off before she ascends, because she'll leave your clan and join her husband's if she marries now. Would not be surprised if that led to a "your clan has been destroyed" game over if you then died.

The Problem is that females join there new Husband Clan after they get Marry.So its always better to have a Son.Not sure what happen if you die after you Marry her to someone and she left.You can hold her in your Clan by doing nothing then maybe she will take over after you Die but then she will never have Kids and the game end then when she will die

If the female is the clan leader the guy she marries will join the clan - it's the exception to the rule.

No, it is a bug confirmed by the Devs, only female faction leaders should stay in their clan, all other females should join their Husband's clan.

I have read it from an Dev post in the Bug Section from TaleWorlds Forum.

Yes but that means he must die fast as if not even his Daugther become to old to have Children.And if she take over the Clan after she reach 45 Years she will not have Children.That you can change then only with Mods to make here younger but then you can do the same with your actual wife to avoid all that.

Ended up making a save using the command to make her prego and the first one was a boy so I made the lore that they lowkey kept this son secret because of assassins within the kingdom trying to eliminate the bloodline. So when the king and queen fall sick they shall announce the child as the next heir with the sister and brother you have as their guardians.

If you are playing on campaign mode.. with the siblings. This should not be an issue, regardless.

Your "heirs" are your spouse, kid, sister, brother, brother, Their spouses and THEIR kids. If you marry your sister off (or any female decendents) they join other factions as has been mentioned. but if you keep them (should only really keep the sister IMO... and her for a governor) You should have more more more than enough.

I once had 77 heirs by year 20 of the campaign. So however old I was at year 20... (42? i cant remember) I had 77 heirs. I had to give away all my females to clans that were dying , just to manage my brood. This was with the fertility perk.
I have heard it is not that prolific with the fertility perk. I am not sure. But I can say I had over 30 some heirs by year 15 without the perk.. many times,

I feel if I kept going... I could have easily had 300-500 heirs. By the time I died if I died at 65.

So if YOU personally married a female who was 46 at age of marriage. and she had no kids... but you DO have sister/brother/brother you can STILL make a giant giant army of heirs.

65 is very young for dying of old age in Mount & Blade II.
My clan members always live to over 90 years with max Endurance and both Anti Death Perks.

Endurance helps in not dying young? I did hear about those perks.

Suddenly it makes sense how some imperial npcs with low endurance die young...
