Raising faction zeal

[kooz123]

How the heck do i do it? I am playing as the Order of the Knights Templar and all my elite units are stuck because my faction zeal is abysmal and my faction leader has the trait where only he and the heir can recruit professional units. Even then he still can't rectruit them. I am stuck. I thought it might have something to do with religion, but i have 90+ religion in all my settlements. This is really ticking me off because i want my Templar Guards and Templar Crossbowmen. Anything you can give me is great.

I was also wondering when Templar Zweihanders become available, if they even are in the campaign. Also what you have to do to get the Templar guild.

Faction Zeal is a feature of Byg's Grim Reality submod. Read that submods thread in the submods forum for details

I don't know, but it could be a bug in your bgr installation. try installing BGR IV from here. [Warning: not for the faint hearted]

Well now its just being gay. I have unlocked all the units (I think) that are available. Still, I can't recruit anything but average spearmen, squires, and low-level archers. I can't recruit French Archers, crossbowmen, zweihanders, templar guards, or anything elite or superior. My faction leader and my heir cant do anything either. This is ticking me off cuz i'm stuck with them. Anything you guys can help me with would be amazing.

You should really post in the appropriate thread (as indicated by Caesar above) or you risk not being noticed. Did you read the instructions on the appropriate thread, particularly the troubleshooter?

Hey, I'm having the same problem but as England (levy spearmen and peasant archers only lol). I was looking on the BGR submod thread and found this:

"Important Note
If you installed BGRIII using the Stainless Steel 6.1 installer you NEED this fix. It is at the bottom of this post, called "data.zip".
Simply unzip it and place the resulting data folder here:C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\mods\Stainless_Steel_6\ , then start a new campaign."

I don't know how helpful this will be to you, but I never installed this 'fix' so that might be your problem too. Hope this helps
