Noble Pikemen

[Rumpletumpskin]

noble pikemen are the special units of the scottish. i don't know if this is a bug or if i'm as nutty as a squirrel turd but i've gone through the building browsers of both the early and late campaigns and i don't see them on the recruiting lists of any barracks. i've checked every barracks structure available from wooden castle to citadel and from town to huge city. none of them list Noble Pikemen available for recruitment.

if anyone has any info on this plz let me know. i don't want to start a campaign as the scottish just to find out weeks from now when i have a huge city and a citadel that it isn't even possible to recruit this unit. i know it is in the game since i can use them in custom battles.

speaking of custom battles, why can't i play as the irish or norway in them?

Because CA in its infinite wisdom decided to make the number of factions able to be played in custom battles less than the total number of factions allowed in the game. You can change which factions are available by editing the SS\data\descr_sm_factions.txt file.

And noble pikemen are recruited from a heavy armourer, not a barracks.
