    Icon9 Lotr Total War (modding questions)

    Hey guys ! I was playing the mod for rome total war, lotr tw with Isengard and found it very addicting , but then began a campaign as the silvan elves and noticed that i can't recruit their units outside their kingdoms, same as Gondor or Rohan.

    So want i'm asking here is, if it is possible to modify the files or something so that the factions build everything normally with no restrictions !

    And if you could tell me how to get rid of the fellbeasts and replace them with another bodyguard I would really appreciate it !

    I believe it involves changing the hidden resources for both the units and buildings. As it stands you have to be able to build a certain set of buildings in a province, which will then allow you to recruit those units. But I believe those buildings can only be built in elven realms.


    I have done it before for units but I can't remember how to do it specifically. I don't want to send you down the wrong path.

    Hum thanks anyway, I really hope it's possible cause it would make the game less realistic but much more enjoyable !

    thats why I like the elves though. Their units over power everyone else so if you made them recruitable outside their realms they would own everyone and then the game would be a power struggle between the 3 elfish factions.

    Only thing I would ever do to the Elves is let them be able to recruit mannish allies, like the Dwarves
