Reformed pagan marriage options

[Wakizashi]

So I noticed that since I reformed the Romuva faith, it has become nearly impossible to seal any marriages with Slavic or Germanic pagans, both of whom are unreformed.

I thought it may have been an unreformed vs reformed pagan issue, but for some reason the unreformed Tengri in general seem to have no qualms with marrying my reformed Romuva family members.

And perhaps even more strangely, I can now apparently internarry with Orthodox and Catholics, as well as Zoroastrians.

Basically, I'm a bit confused as to the marriage mechanic for reformed pagans. Any ideas how this is supposed to work?

First of all, are you Holy Fury reformed or old-style reformed?

Holy Fury, with Proselytizing/Defenders of Dievas/Unrelenting/Hierocratic.

Nomads won't forbid marriages based on religion, so that may be why you see Tengri willing to accept.

Germanic and Slavic pagans won't marry because they are unreformed. The Tengri characters will marry not because of their religion but because they are nomadic. Nomads can marry anyone with no restrictions.

Based on historical precedents I would actually allow interfaith marriages. At least for neighboring tribals and Christians. Maybe with baptism required for spouse.

Then pick Cosmopolitan.

Thanks, that would make sense. However, the Germanic faith has been reformed by the AI now, and they still have the "must not marry an infidel" modifier. Does that mean the AI picked Dogmatic?

It's extra strange that Orthodox Christians apparently have no problems marrying reformed pagans, but unreformed pagans do.

The reason Tengris are willing to marry you is because they are nomads, and nomads don't care about religion.

Once they go Tribal or Feudal, you'll know their true colors and they'll reject any marriages with you and forget all about the sons and daughters they exchanged previously, (they will still honor any last bethrorals though).
