It would seem that you have Real Recruitment enabled, this limits the number of units and allows them to be created at the correct point in history. Certain Units only become available at a historical point

i play with Teutonic order and... ritter's are available now but cannot recruit them..should i check or uncheck Real Recruitment? Thanks for keeping this alive

Maybe you have to wait some turns for their recruitment to be enabled.

Sounds like you're playing with Byg's Grim Reality - a submod which drastically changes much gameplay, especially finances and recruitment.
For instance, to recruit the more advanced units you will require a General that's a member of the War Counsil (generally, King and Heir), or have a Professional Training Staff.
It changes many things, and one really should read that thread before venturing far into a game with BGR enabled.

in BGR you need to have certain religious population to recruit units as well

i am not using BGR modes,maybe its all about turns but that's stupid lol .I mean,if u have money,population and unit available why it cannot be recruited ?

because longbowmen werent actually available till whenever, gothic knigths werent a reality till that period of time. its called REAL RECRUITMENT for a reason

There is a manpower limit. If you have too many men, you may have to disband some militia or weak troops and then recruit Ritterbruders or whatever you want.

Can you see the "faded" unit on the recruitment screen? If so, hover the cursor over it and a little window with additional information will appear. What does it say there? Best would be to post a screenshot.
