I was so surprised since I didn't order it that I screwed up and didn't take a screenshot of the high priority notification, but you can see from the dates in the following pictures that I shouldn't have been able to send another eunuch for some time I was busy pillaging the Abbasid in Tripolitania when I got a notification that my teen son left his old life behind and moved to China. Too much Dynasty? Well similar to a civil war but some of them remain loyal and staunch supporters of the Dynasty, but this should also come with the caveat that more members of the House Liu see themselves as worthy instead of you, because you've been a whoremongering pleasure-seeker your whole life and now China is in ruins. Too much Warlord influence? Guess what you have a massive and devastating civil war on your hands. They do all the work and then stay loyal after putting down the rebels? There's so much more they could've done with the faction system and how it impacts the end of the Yellow Turban Rebellion. While we're on Liu Hong, make the damn Warlords betray you. Two, this gives the Liu Hong campaign more strenuous and lengthy pacing as you have these corrupt and idle eunuchs draining your realm dry and you're powerless to challenge them without having new recruits in the works. I advocate for this because one, I feel it a waste that the starting eunuchs are the only ones that exist in the game period. You must instead slowly replace them with new eunuchs, that you yourself as the emperor can select out of the pool of recruitable leaders. I think to make the Liu Hong campaign more interesting and challenging simultaneously, CA should make it so that the starting Eunuchs cannot simply be dismissed. I think the bureaucrats should serve a purpose in the court as they always had, and forcing the player to reform the faction instead of just yeeting them all would be much more interesting/fun to play. Yes they provide food, but that's it, and having the Bureaucrat faction in power is something you most definitely do not want. It makes sense at the start for them to be causing Liu Hong serious penalties in his capacity to govern the Han, but a true reform would be to introduce new Eunuchs and bureaucrats that promote what they are supposed to represent loyal, educated and skilled members of the Imperial household. Have actual REFORMS that you can pass to make the bureaucratic faction snap out of their avaricious power-grabbing and serve China as the meritocratic administration they were meant to be. TL DR Make the Eunuchs a permanent and interesting theme in the campaign when playing as an emperor, shake up how Liu Hong particularly plays because he's mind numbingly boring at the moment.
