How do I get an heir?

[anycent]

I'm currently playing as England. I Started the game in 1560. I need to get an Heir to the throne so the Tudor dynasty does'nt die out. So my question is how do you get an heir to the throne? (not the game)

You must wait.

Yep.
Happens by itself.
Then he dies in an hunting accident.
Then you get another one.
This one gets deadly sick.
So you wait again until you get another one.
The game allows you to choose if you want to name him "Alexander" or "Ceasar", which is pretty badass.
That also dies.
This times, the game allows you to either pray for him or get it on with a servant to immedialty get a new one.
Naturally, you choose the latter.
But that one dies in an hunting accident again.
Which causes you to ragequit the game and consider playing a republic the next time.
But you won't, propably because of the small selection, and go through it again instead.

Note: That won't actually all happen during the same monarchs life, but it will FEEL as if it happened that often

Insert Tab A into Slot B. Repeat if necessary.

Note: these instructions brought to you by the fine folks at IKEA.

Anycent, when you see how important your monarch and heir are to warfare, diplomacy, and administration, and then lose a high-ranking monarch to his/her terrible heir, you'll become just a cynical as the rest .

You can matrilineally marry your queen to Ivan IV of Russia. He has the hedonistic trait, which helps with fertility.

Something came up when I repeated that for just thirty-ish times. Then Tab A softened up.

i thought it was:

Child: Mommy, where do babies come from?
Mom: Well Billy, one day, a stork brought you to us, and we were very happy.
Child: So, I came from a stork?
Mom: That's right. Now go bug your father.

It's like plugging an electrical cord into a wall jack.
