Will my fortress get a new king...?
« on: November 26, 2008, 11:21:28 am »
... if my last one just died from old age? :P

I checked his Queen consort (oddly labeled as "Guard.") and they do have an eldest son still alive (in some other city, not mine.)

So will the kid become kind and move here?

Well, hopefully he's kind enough to at least send some flowers.

I'm kinda upset over his death tbh :P

I got a Baron a while ago as I was building a keep. It got me excited so I quickly hastened its construction (surface fortress btw). Then he became a Duke and I saw I had a king coming soon, so I abandoned all other city-wide projects for the Keeps completion. Well King arrived, and the structure was basically finished just in time. Then 1 year later he dies of old age :P I felt like my city was basically his funeral home :P

Kings aren't replaced

Maybe use a utility to raise him from the dead as a cruel mockery of life

Raise him from the dead and then make him into a zombie inside a gilded cage.

Yeah, then you can yell "HE'S ALIVE! HE'S ALIVE!"

then you can wrestle him in the ambiotic fluid that gets spilled everywhere.






I hope some people get that last reference.

The king is (un)dead. Long live the king!

this makes me so sad :( Such wasted space in my keep. Oh well. I suppose I can move all my other nobles (Queen consort, Duke, Dutchess, etc) up a notch as far as qualit of rooms go.


As for raising from the dead, I might do this. My fortress is in a haunted land (zombie wolves and monkeys everywhere!), so this could work :P
