Wow I can't express how excited I am to hear about the conceiving and heir/child function you are putting in the game!  This is something I've always hoped to see in a mod and now you guys are doing it.  I think the 300 days is more then adequate.  How will it work?  Will a new companion/heir appear in your court after 300 days?  How do you name them?  As soon as this function is ready to unveil I would love to do at least a mini series on my channel showing off these great new features.

Keep up the great work!

Check out this all new miniseries exploring the various Historical Characters available.

How should I start the dialogue?

"Let's try for heir?"

Click to expand...

Sure.  That sounds appropriate.

On the subject of and heir. Could you script something like this:
Have a dialog with wife with an option to try for heir.
Similar to when you learn a poem the camera backs out to the over map with a passage of time.
After a week you get a notification that your wife is with child.

So here is were reality and game fun would have to depart. I think something like 6 months in game would be a reasonable amount of time to wait for a full grown companion/son to spawn in your town or castle. They would simple be a companion after that.

Really cool extras may be impossible to script.
Random list of names for your child in the code that would be randomly selected or name your child option.

Randomness of getting a girl or boy.

Heir would appear in Characters list as part of your family. 

Ability to set marriage agreements with other lords for your
daughter.

Thanks for listening. Your have put together a really great experience with this mod it has become one of my all time favorites.

Keep up the amazing work.

I recently became King Stannis' vassal and I have 75 relationship with him. I asked to be affiliated to his family, and he said no. I wonder if it's locked or my relation is just not high enough?

I didn't really find a good answer from here:
http://mountandblade.wikia.com/wiki/Marriage

But from my experience it's based on 4 things:
1. Your renown
2. Your relationship level with the lord
3. Your relationship level with the lady.
4. Where your relationship 'quest' is with the lady.

From my experience if you want to wed a certain woman the process are these steps:
1. Build up enough reputation with her lord for her to be present when you enter their keep.
2. Win a tournament, then dedicate it to her when you introduce yourself to her.
3. Say you're her admirer, then meet with her several times, telling her poems etc etc. There are quests you can do for ladies but I've never done them?
4. After you get your relationship to the teens, propose.
5. Once she says yes, go talk to her lord and ask for permission.

What you're doing is basically steps 1 and 5, so it's an uphill battle. When I've done playthroughs where I have a massive renown before bothering to get a bride it's much, much easier.

This is all correct except you have to elope with the Kings Daughter.  They never agree to a marriage.  Its okay though the relationship hit is very minor (under -5 i believe) but you get a princess in return.

Hope this helps.

Yes the Pope will go to war with you if you rebel.  If you attack him or his lords even if they started the war ever other Catholic Kingdom in Europe will go to war with you as well. 

Option 1:

Destroy the Pope and his Kingdom, weather the storm from other nations and try to get peace with them.

Option 2:

Avoid the Pope, try to get a peace agreement with him and be on your way with starting your kingdom.  It will take time but much less then fighting an all out war with Europe.  Plus if your kingdom isn't geographically close to Italy and the Papal States then trying to eliminating them as a faction becomes very difficult.

Hope this helps and Rule Well,

The only option I get is to increase building improvements by 1 unit for 10000 or something like that. Is that correct. When I speak with the village elder about building something I get no options.  Am I not waiting long enough for something to happen.

Thanks.

The amount of troops that spawn in a battle is based on your tactics skill. If you have more tactics than the opposing leader then you will get more troops at the start of the battle then he will. 

When you say you spawn 3 vs 60.  Is that just your men but you have your lords men filling out the rest?  Or do you have only 3 men total versus 60?

You wont lose that much relationship.  If I had to guess from previous experience you will lose -15 from her father.  If you have a good relationship with him already then it wont be a big deal.  From my experience the King could care less if you elope just the father of the women you wish to marry.

Articulo is right.  Set your army up with spearmen in the front at the top of a hill or in trees, they need some advantage against cavalry.  Then set your archers behind them.  Get a good group of mounted companions that you can send out to attack the enemy lines so that they charge at your lines of pikemen and spearmen while getting hit by your archers.  Cavalry without speed (climb hill and running into trees) running into a line of pikes is certain death for them. 

After that the most basic tactic is to take your own cavalry around their rear and attack them from behind while they are engaged with your infantry.  Also don't forget about their archers take a small group of cavalry to take them out before they cause problems for you men.  When attacking archer lines always attack them with your shield arm closes to them.  Shield in left arm attack archer from their left.  Keep circling from this side, your shield will take all the arrows. Also if you cant always hit them with your sword just run over them so they stop firing and become distracted.

Don't over extend your lines in big battles.  If you move too far from your spawn point your reinforcements will take too long to get to the battle front and you could lose even more men.

Always remember to use the terrain to make the enemy cavalry have to slow down or get stuck. 

Horse archers.  Got to kill those horses first then they are much easier to handle.

Thanks for watching...

I chose not to play with lance recruitment so I'm not sure about that issue.  Is your castle garrisons in your control or the towns?  That also effects the cost to a degree.

Its really hard to effect the relationships between two NPCs, and to my knowledge there is no mechanism in the game to effect this beside an occasional random quest.  But here is some of the things you can do.  The first thing you need to know is what kind of Lord is this NPC.  If he is Honorable he may never leave his king unless the faction is on the verge of elimination.  If he is on the other spectrum and Debauched he will more than likely go to the faction that gives him the most opportunity for lands. 

So you want to rebel and have lords join your faction, you will need high Right to rule (send companions out to get this) and free unassigned fiefs that attract other Lords.  If you are trying to convince a lord in the field to join you, you will need to have a high relationship with him (based on quest, saving him in battle, etc.) and High persuasion skill.  However this wont be enough, this NPC Lord will need to have a low relationship with the King and the faction will need to be in decline, but most important the Lord will have to be less than Honorable like I mentioned previously.

The best case to have what you want to happen is for you to rebel from a small declining faction where the NPC lord you are trying to convince is debauched, and has really good relationship with you, he has no fiefs and you have unassigned fiefs already.  Still however it probably wont happen.  Your best bet is to wait out the good lords who are not debauched and quarrelsome, these are the ones besides your companions that will maintain good relationships with you.  Eventually that lord will join you if you maintain a good relationship with him and you continually try to convince him over time, you just need all those other things in place as well.

Hope this Helps.
