Excellent news, and doubly excellent that it will include fixes for two of my biggest gripes with CK (bride-finding & court-searching). But even though it's probably too late, I will go down on my knees and request:
1) Better message options. I want to be told if my eldest son dies, even if I've granted him a fief and his own court. I do not want to get pop-ups for every random courtier that dies in the entire kingdom, especially not if they're identified by name only, with no mention of titles or positions and no indication which court the event took place in.
2) An end to marriage spam. Both incoming and outgoing.
3) Better pruning of surplus courtiers and/or the ability to arrange marriages for courtiers not of your dynasty, so the courts of Europe do not get clogged with aging spinsters. The later CK patches improved this, but not enough.

Have there been any changes to spawning kingdoms? like KoJ , the knightly orders and those muslim nations that appeared in some mods so that they have a chance of survival after their initial appearance.

In truth I want an end to spam full stop.
CK is the only game you can spam to your hearts content (or discontent depending on your view).
vassalisations.
Marriages.
Alliances.
And so forth. I hope the new diplomacy system (and I have high hopes it will), will get rid of all the 'spamming' the AI and the player can do. Fix this and I will be having accidents in my knickers, knowing the rebels are fixed (as they are) too.
I don't think my legs will hold me up.

There is a little feature I would like to see in this expansion, if possible. Will we, by any chance, be able to reorder our titles, or at least choose which will be primary? I've definately come into situations where I wanted to choose a different King title as primary (especially when the Emperor title is involved). Also, can we manually select our capital?
This is wonderful news; it's too bad that I will be heading off to 8 weeks of boot camp around the time it's released. 
It would be nice to be able to arrange marriages for your vassals and (more importantly) for your title holding relatives. I always get my grandson to inherit a title before being able to marry him of.

What would be nice about that ?
It is not realistic but sounds pretty exploitive and boring to, so what are the advantages about being able to do that ?

I thought that was already in but indirectly in.
When you create a bunch of bishropics with relatives as bishops you'll get a high chance of becoming papal controller if any of those relatives get elected as pope.
It would be nice to control at least your direct bloodline. So your Superman grandson will not be able to marry some low stat, no inheritance <censored>. Controlling your dynasty's marriages is a fundamental aspect of the game. If you are unable to plot who your heir would marry, you have to miss one generation of schemingVeldmaarschalk said:
.While it can be exploitive for non-related vassals (but then there should still be a chance they won't accept). But I believe it is important to arrange a marriage for your future heir.

Thats why you marry them off first, then give them a title.
Aye.
I was thinking one more issue... Could some peoples have their ways of calling children. Say "ibn" for Muslims and "mac, ui, ap" for Celts..
MRAKoris said:
Well... Mac (dunno what the hell ui or ap are) is determined by a surname.
So its not exactly a method of calling your children.
If you are Mac Diarmaid, then your son will be a Mac Diarmaid.

In my opinion your vassals should ask for permission to marry. That doesn't sound that awful. Even with a hundred vassals it shouldn't be that bad after the start and of course it'd be even better if you could set it so that you auto accept all but your relative's proposals.
Now, naturally refusing to grant permission isn't something all vassals will listen to.
Uí is more for when a woman marries a man with the name Ó and decides to change her surname to his and instead of the Ó takes Uí.
But still... I don't see the point in having such complexity in a game. Its not an Irish language grammar test.
