Unable to recruit leaders

**Nutsack** · December 08, 2007, 06:29 PM

I'm eager to expand into the Americas, but as you can see, any button to which I'm supposed to be able to recruit Generals, Admirals, Conquistadors and Explorers with are all greyed out (unable to be clicked).

I can recruit leaders in other saved games, and I didn't have this problem at the beginning of my English campaign.

Has anybody else encountered this problem? Or maybe it isn't a problem at all?

You probably did not reach certain conditions. By the way, what is the 104 thing??

It's the discipline of my army. I don't know how it functions but apparently it hasn't increased or decreased in the entire course of my game.

Didn't reach certain conditions? What do you mean by this? I do have enough money, and a diplomat/colonist which is everything required to recruit a leader.

By the way, thanks for the reply

It's quite quiet in this thread otherwise.

Or possible you lock the buttoms?? I know you can lock the buttoms of research and religion tolerance in game...

THANK YOU!

I never thought that it could be my options settings but when you suggested it, it made so much sense because then it would only affect the "Great Britain" save game.

I haven't played around with NA enough to know for sure, but >100% discipline may be either the cause, or another symptom of, your problem

I fixed it now

. I'm in the process of colonizing New England (Natives are makin' it difficult).

And by the way, does anyone know how to name colonies? I saw someone do it in another thread.

ehem
when you send a colonist to a colony (doesnt have to be the first colonist)
the window pops up telling you if it was successful or not
if it was, at the top of the box where it says the name of the colony, double click the name (toward the right side i believe) and you can the edit the name of the colony

+rep please
lol im hungry ok!
