Early Teutonic Knights

[normanknight]

im on turn 20 with HRE if just joined a crusade and i get the Tuetonic guild how ace is that ive never seen any of these guilds ( tuetonic,santiago,templars,etc) come so early has anyone else?

[Pizza de Oveja]

In my games in darth mod with the empire...I get the teutonic knights guild always in the same city as soon as it turns into a minor city.

In a game with england in LTC thou, I only got the san juan temple when I succesfully completed a crusade and latter took alepo. They got a temple there.

With france In darth mod lite I never got the offer for any knights guild.
Check the extelent document about guilds that can be found in the forum to see what are your chances, but I think that modders change that or might change it and so it is not entirely acurate.

You make it sound pretty random. nearly all the guilds i get make sense for some reason or another this one though has come quicker than i have ever seen any guild come i wonder how quick i could get a woodsmen guild and start kiking butt with robin hood

You spelled "Teutonic" wrong in the title. That's so shameful and disappointing to me I'm afraid I can't help.

kickin butt with robin hood guys in green stockins rules...I got them in my england campaing...although contrary to disney, my sherwood forest bandits were democratic, they did rob both the rich and the poor and they kept the gold for themselves....then proceded to kill them, enjoy their women and finaly put the village to the torch.
thats total realism

I corrected the thread title.. happy now Kalos?

Yes I am. And now that the title is corrected I'll help!

Somewhere around here there's a guide to guilds... I'll try to find it for you tomorrow.

now i feel like an idiot

and i was gonna vote your pic on POW Kalos...........i probaly still will haha

any "Teutonic" knights rule in the early game

[JMonroe]

I always get the offer as soon as Frankfurt gets upgraded to Minor City. After Hamburg upgrades to Fortress I get one there too to provide an endless supply for my armies.

Question: I know a neighboring region being mostly pagan provides points towards Teutonic Knights guilds, but does the region need to be rebel? Or can I control it and just leave the priests out for a while. Also, do the points only apply to those regions that border the pagan region? Your capital? All cities you control?

[Roshak]

Yeah I got them pretty early which was great because I was losing to my sucky units.

[Pizza de Oveja]

Yep. Those times in med II really make everything worth

I was just checking and teutonic knigts are better than any other cavalry I would be able to produce in a castle...so IMHO other than light cavalry, if you have a guild its pointless to develop stables.

Do you agree?

[normanknight]

I agree, i just had a full tuetonic knight army go to take on some turks for a laugh and they ruled. im bringing them back now to finish off venice. i do like the merchant cav aswell though
