Per title. Regularly pillaging is a tedious task, but the message icon eases this significantly, as it jumps straight to the pillage function for each holding that you can pillage, every time you click on the icon.

However, the icon also jumps to the 'settle down' function, as a tribe/feudal/republic. Not only is this tedious, since it goes through every single vassal, and vassal of vassal, that you can settle on, but also because it makes it very prone to accidentally settling down when you just want to pillage the damn thing.

Thus, I suggest a separate message icon for pillaging and settle on holdings.

Honestly though, I don't even think a message icon showing every holding you can settle on is a very useful icon at all... considering that you'll only ever use it once.

I found it convenient when settling as it allowed to easily cycle through all possible holdings, which amounts to quite a lot if you don't pillage everything (while the other possibility is to go through vassal tab and try to figure out where say the county of Bessarabia is).

I agree with the pillage only alert though.
