Hi to everyone. First of all I want to thank whole taleworlds team for a great, unique game. I know moderators don't like such topics, but I'd like to see answer. I want to play a close to history game, female generals are against any common sense, as in medieval living conditions(do not confuse with medieval setting) women were near every year pregnant and after 40 they were old grandmothers already. Medieval hygiene and medicine were quite awful
There were only several women who had lead armies. And pls notice, all of them - for a short period of time, Boudica and Joan of Arc were more symbols than generals. Others i can't remember. I don't mind the Empress or Queen, as it has sense, but women for generals and gang leaders look very weird. It is not tv-show where viking grandmother 60+, who looks younger than her son, defeats middle-aged raider ringleader. When you say that game is fictional you forget about book sources, historical novels are also fiction but they are not stupid.
Moderators advised to those who don't like female generals to go back to 1989 year (very polite as for a community manager) or mod game, so pls TW make a text file or in-game option to toggle female generals. We can't expect mods soon, as clan system seems to be hard-coded in game mechanics. Also I remember in Warband there was an option to toggle woman prejudice level, pls bring it back
