Recruitment Incredibly Annoying for anyone else in 6.1?

**magogian** · May 12, 2008, 11:05 AM

Okay,

I loved 6.0. However, 6.1 introduced these heavily restricted recruitment rules that I find incredibly annoying. It seems I can almost never produce by high end units. Plus many units never seem to become available, even when I put my faction leader in the respective town/castle. It always says it will become available in X number of turns, but never actually becomes available.

First, is there more information on this somewhere?

Second, does anyone else find this incredibly annoying?

Finally, how can I get rid of it? Do I have to do a full uninstall?

Thanks

This has nothing to do with SS, you have installed Byg III and/or RC.

When I installed the 6.1 patch, I clicked to install everything. So, is this BYG III what causes teh recruitment restrictions? If so, can I just remove it? Or must I reinstall everything.

(Otherwise I LOVE SS)

If you have Byg III installed, there was a bug which prevented high-end units becoming available, as the turn-counter never counted down. Go to the Byg III thread and there is a fix on the first page.

lester,

I'm not really sure. Here is what I do know.

I installed 6.0 and 6.1 (installing all the mods that came with it). I've installed the BYG III hotfix. After starting a new campaign, I still can't recruit any upper level units. Even if I put my faction leader in a city or fortress that has over 90% of my religion, I still am unable to recruit units. It shows the units in the recruitment screen, but they are grayed out and never become available.

Can someone please help? Is there a fix for this?

And if not, what mod is causing the problem. And, can I just uninstall it or do I have to uninstall everything?

Thank You

I suggest posting in the BGR III thread in the Sub Mods forum, or PM Byg.

id take the safe option and uninstall then reinstall SS but this time not install BYG III. also have you tried asking the mod creator if he can help you?

Guys it is simple no body could make AI smarter so they made handicaps for us: sick and stupid generals, stupid merchants, ugly princesses, no units other than basic ones, infinite money for AI and so on
Love it or uninstall it
