Howdy, everyone!
Been playing a game some time ago and thought - we have a death in battle feature here, ok. If my companion dies, theoretically, I lose a valuable part of my party - a high level medic or a steward, for example. That makes my life more difficult and that's ok - I don't mind having a little challenge. If I lose a wife, I won't be able to have any heirs until I find a new one, etc.
But there's another side of the coin - AI lords can die too, but I don't see how is that a problem for enemy Kingdom or even a single clan. Suppose I killed a head of the clan - well, next in line simply takes his place and nothing changes. The clan (as I understand) won't lose any influence, they won't lose money, reputation, land - well, nothing changes for them actually. One AI mannequin has died, all hail another mannequin.
So, my question to either devs or data miners/modders who can see the game's code - what are the consequences of losing any member for the AI clan? Are there any at all?
