Ethiopian Units

[Irishmafia2020]

I am playing a Sabah Campaign, and I have occupied Ethiopia. In a faction walkthrough I saw on the Org it was suggested that the best Saba units could be obtained in Axum. I want to know how to obtain the Ethiopian Swordsman, Ethiopian Guard, and African Elephant units in Axum. Specifically what type of government do I have to build, or have these units been removed from 1.0 for some reason. I know that I face swordsman, so they are still in the game, but why would they be non-recruitable which is the rumor?

Thank you for your advice...

Install the recruitment viewer: it will answer all recruitment-related threads. Not sure about the swordsmen, but the Ethiopian axemen (agema) have been removed because the evidence relating to their existence has recently become controversial. If I understand the team correctly they did exist, but only late in the mod's timeframe, and as palace guard, so presumably they didn't see field duty.

Yes, the Agema is being removed.
The Aithiopian Swordsmen are in game but have not recruitment code, so they are unavailable. This will be fixed with the next release.
I'm not sure Saba gets all the types of elephants... check the recruitment viewer as suggested...

ok thanks for the info... It would be nice if Saba had an answer to the Galatian Swordsmen - even if it is an inferior sword unit. If I can figure out how to mod the Ethiopian Swordsmen back into Saba's recruitment I will... if not I'll invade india to get some of those War guild units...

Don't they get the Galatians too, from the exact same regions as the Ptolies ?

[Irishmafia2020]

Yes, but I am not in those regions yet, so I was looking for a local answer...
EDIT: I found a mod by Minime in the EB mod section that adds Swordsmen back into the mod, as well as adds some of Saba's roster as local units In Arabia for Eastern Factions - I highly reccomend this mod if your getting your @zz handed to you as Saba by the Ptolies and you want to even things up a little (and get a jump on 1.1 which does the same thing!).
