Historical Family System

Description
This mod creates historical family members for most factions in the Grand Campaign. Rome and Carthage are not a part of this system, see below for mod versions for those factions. Do not use with Divide et Impera, it is already included in that mod.

Although it is not a family tree, the basic concept is that occasionally a new family member will be spawned for your ruling family. This new general may be a historical figure for some factions or more of a randomly created general for others that have less historical sources. On average, about every 50 turns or so these events will occur. That number is very different for various factions and historical generals, so it is not a fixed value by any means. Currently there are 225 new characters across the various playable factions.

This mod is now included in Divide et Impera. It is also compatible with vanilla, but requires the 4TPY mod. Save game compatible, should be compatible with most other mods.

Using other TPY settings for the grand campaign will result in characters with incorrect or strange ages.

I noticed that I could get Cleopatra as Seleucids after destroying Egypt. Does the ability to get other faction historical figures hold true if you defeat that faction or is Cleopatra unique in this respect? What combination of submods would you suggest to maximize historical characters? It add so much roleplaying fun to the game.

Can you update this to include non playable factions for those of us who have unlocker mods?

Is it supposed to give me family members at age 27? Because it gives me a lot of the seleucid rulers a lot sooner than it should(by like 10 years) and always 27YO. For example it gave me Antiochus III in ~235 aged 27, when he was pretty much a 10 year old at that time IRL.
Any help in case this shouldnt be happening? I am using 4tpy and a bunch of unit packs
