Favorite mod, but just a few questions

[Dayemon]

I absolutely love this mod, but there are a couple of things I haven't been able to figure out yet:
-do pikes and heavier armor come around at a set time, or does the player have to do something
-how do you upgrade melee weapons(on perfectly polished the swordsmith's guild increases experience of units trained)

Thank you very much for any answers you can give.

- Yes, they come once they are invented. Just upgrade you facilities and be patient (Real Recruitment mod).
- You can't. The whole weapon upgrade feature wasn't coded very well by CA and is broken ever since. Weapon upgrades gave more advantage than they should and thus were removed. They would make the game simply too unrealistic.

That's too bad about the weapon upgrades, simply because I liked the look of them, but it is only one negative for me in a sea of positives. Thank you for the speedy response.

Swordsmen and Horsebreeders guilds still work though. They give experience instead of upgrading weapons. So you get your +1 attack and +1 defense anyway. It doesn't change the looks though (nobody remembers those anyway).
