This question has been on my mind for a while I'm hoping someone can shed some insight. Since NPCS can die on the battlefield and also of old age that would mean the ruler of any given faction will eventually die. How is his succession chosen can another clan takeover? Can you or other clan start a civil war for power? I think it would be a worth while feature if you could become ruler of a kingdom that already exists instead of having to start your own, or even if the balance of power can shift within a kingdom due to influence/clan strength etc in your favor or an NPC clans favor. I've been keeping up with all the updates/dev blogs but I don't think anything of the sort was ever mentioned.
