After the brothers are dead, it goes to the eldest son of the eldest brother and the cycle begins again!

Very cool!

I hope the next patch also gives to the Rus some love. At present, except for autocephalous patriarchs, they have no special mechanics that would make them unique; and help them to face the dangerous threats they face in that area especially after 1200.

I don't know, something like the ability to call to war all the Rus people against foreign invaders of other religions? Something that would simulate, say, the Alexander Nevskij's experience.

Rota, as far as I can read it, works like this: The line of succession for the kingdom and each duchy is your younger brothers until the 4th brother inherits or you run out of brothers, then the eldest son of the first brother to hold the throne, then down the line of his brothers until the 4th brother inherits or you run out of brothers, then the eldest son of the first of that generation to hold the throne, etc. Importantly, if your father didn't hold the throne in Kiev (which happens if his father dies before his grandfather), then you're ineligible for inheritance.

The big issue is that when you inherit your elder brother's/youngest uncle's land, you give up your old land to the man after you. Currently the game doesn't really have a mechanic for giving up land when you inherit new land. That's the issue I think with getting collateral inheritance to work. When someone near the top of the succession dies, a lot of people change lands.

Wish there were some screenshots...

of the actual game, not just the titles. Also, that Russian girl is quite scary looking.

Dunno if this is what you wanted but, here's a render of the Russian units! Paradox South provides :D
Way more upclose than was ever intended with these models, but yeah....

You already can call to arms all Rurik family, and only them for the most part rule Rus at the time period

Yet another good way to spend my hard purchased blue coins!

Will definitely buy the portraits and sprites, but have to wait for sales for the songs.

Mediterranean portraits would be more long-lived though, are you holding them back until the Republic DLC?

Right, but what if you have a custom ruler? Or things change during the course of the game before the Mongols come?
