Templars don't seem to have parents. How sad.
The game usually shows only characters that are somehow relevant, either as living, or dead but providing family connections. Each character has a portrait, a set of traits, information on their family etc., so if you consider the fact that there are about 300 countries, each ruled by an individual character, with his family and courtiers, you will soon realise that when not necessary it is better not to include them - just to save hard drive. ;)

Ohhh, lots of cool new titles, aside from the usual King/Duke/Count. Looks like Chief and High Chief are the pagan versions of Count and King, judging from the Livonia screenshot.
But what about the Principality of Cyprus (in this screenie )? As Michael is vassal to the Emperor, but has his own vassal, it seems like it might be analogous to a Duchy? Does the Orthodox world get some new titles as well? Or maybe it's a separate case (like Catholic bishoprics?)
Prince is the Orthodox "Duke". "Emperor" is the Byzantine "King". :)

You got it all wrong! The Greek title for emperor is "Basileus".

Technically its the Greek term for King.

Hence the Paleologus motto: King of Kings, Ruling over Kings (or something to that effect... not even gonna try the actual greek)

EDIT: to add that Basileus was only the casual term for the Emperor. I believe he had multiple titles including "Autokrator", which roughly translates into Emperor and various Latin equivalent rarely used that were basically tossed aside when official documents began being written in Greek.

WOW. THANKS a lot MORK!!! ;)

i loved it...
about constanta... Zvonimir is slavic, but certainly not bulgarian :) it sounds more like croatian, which i would think impossible, given the location of Constanta :)

anyway, Peter and Assen were different persons... why did they merge "them"? hmmm, gives me lots of food for thought ;) maybe theyjust took Assen as the dynastic name. and btw, what is the maximum of a king's own characteristics (stewardship, intrigue etc.) without the additional bonuses?

Which when translated into English means Emperor.

Well, if it's Greek for Emperor, then, yes, it translates as Emperor :p

Sigh, the two images I'd like to see aren't even screenshots...

That's Mork's expression when he got CK and Johan's expression when he learned of this chaos. :)

Anyways, thanks Mork! You're a gentleman, a scholar, and one lucky Dane. :)

Mork: :wacko:
Johan: :eek:

I see that there are a lots of traits. Those traits give a numerical bonus to something (for example, those related to war and strategy) or its just a way to describe the character´s AI?

How many points a character can have in one of his stats?
