Sorry everyone. It was my intention for all the lands my family controlled to go to you all. It was a mistake to assume that retiring a character would set in motion the same inheritance that death does.
Come to think of it... why does it not? If I retire a character I have to run around and hand each settlement to someone? Ridiculous.
That is why I am finished here. Too much of the games fundamental elements are not complete or require too much effort and time to do. Love this game and its ideas...hate that people are able to play it using bots to manage things.
Peace.
