What's a hero without a spouse? Just an idea, but wouldn't it be great if your hero could get married and then you could combine the couple's skills
#Marry to combine hero skills

Please, not.
It wa sannoying enough in Fire Emblem

might be fun as a rare event rather than as a fully developed mechanic
wintry orbit
steep steeple
Just not the right game for this
As for role play reasons you can do this by renaming and respecing your heroes
iron umbra
There was a fantastic system for this in King Arthur the role playing war game where you could choose from a list of random partners that would each provide different skills, abilities, bonuses and penalties to your main hero and the city they governed. They would also work with diplomacy.

the planetfall anomaly where you can marry a sePLEASURExbot (or build it a new husband if you're assembly) was funny, i could see an event like that

I loved those bots and that quest. I protected my love bot at all costs when I got one.
Adding this to game tho sounds like a can of worms in todays world.

i don't think the concept of marriage is terribly controversial

Then let us continue this conversation, bring in kids, and who can have them.

I don't think children are relevant in the timescale of the game to be honest - though you can found cities and have them grow, you can play hundreds of turns and have the mortal leader of a free city not visibly age. Would be way easier just to avoid children completely - IMO that would be a seperate suggestion anyway
royal marlin
???????? who cares?
why would kids be a problem
just don't put in kids lmao that'd be dumb to include them in any case
cold lark
maybe i misunderstood "combine" and the couple are instead doing the archon from starcraft
royal marlin
you know you're right
