    just take the relations drop, then give em a nice present like a few thousand gold to get urself back on track. after all it would go along with the lore were you to make a few tributes to the king under the mountain

    I'm staying true to lore and have a good relationship with the dwarves, What should I do? Should I risk an assassination attempt or do I let the mission pass and take the knock to relations? What do you guys do when presented lore breaking missions or choices? Do you try and keep the story on track or bend it to your own benovelent will?!
    It depends on the situation. If the reward is worth the efford and I won't have to bend over too many barrels to achieve it, I usually do it. The relations between allied factions really never/rarely matter. As long as you remain allied to them, nothing will happen.

    I would not recommend it because it could potentially lead to a bad relation between you and the dwarves and if you are not allied to the dwarves you will struggle and it has happened several times before that they go to war with some of its previous allies. You can check that after the assassination by pressing the banner in the bottom right corner and then the diplomacy tab. look on the picture below. Hold you arrowkey over the faction-banner and there you can see how it has affected your relation with the dwarves.

    Default Late era units and recruitment questions

    Hello, I just came across this mod a few days ago and thought it looked cool so I installed it and WOW! is all I have to say. Incredible work, for me this is on par with Europa Barbarorum for RTW and I thought that was the best mod ever created.

    Anyway, my questions: First, I noticed the option to pick middle and late era units in the skirmish menu but when I choose those options nothing changes, so I was wondering if there actually are units for different eras or if not.

    Second, I've found with several factions that an event pops up at some point saying that my military infrastructure has developed to the point that I can recruit better units, so I was wondering if this is the later era units and also if there is a way to edit the script so that I those events happen earlier for all factions because for me it gets boring playing with militia units for dozens of turns. I did see that there was the Total Recruitment mod that does just that but it seems to be only for 3.1 so it's not helpful to me, so I was wondering if there are any other mods out there that have the same effect as the Total Recruitment mod or if not how I can do it myself.

    Thanks!

    Bob124: First, there are no middle or late era units, they are all from the same "era"

    Second, I'll paste the FAQ thread here: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=509455

    I quote: " Why can't I recruit advanced units like Eldar units or Trolls ?
    A: The barracks events are required for training more advanced units. It happens around turn 45"

    To remove it:

    Note: this is also an alternative to reinstalling if you have "bugged events"

    M2TW/mods/Third_Age/data/world/maps/campaign/imperial_campaign/descr_events.txt
    Delete everything in this file, and save it.
    M2TW/mods/Third_Age/data/export_descr_buildings.txt
    Open this file with notepad and press CTRL+H. In the "Find what" field, type
    Code:
    and event_counter large_city_barracks 1
    Leave the "Replace with" field blank, and click "replace all"

    Repeat the process, but this time type
    Code:
    and event_counter huge_city_barracks 1
    in the find what field.
    Save the file and you're done!

    I hope this helps!

    Thanks Darth Lord Revan for the quick help! And one more quick question: How do you change the replenishment rates for units? I'd love to raise overpowered armies of elite units but don't really want to wait 10+ turns to recruit one at a time...

    If you mean the turns of recruitement you can find and change em here : Third_Age_3\data and then the text file : export_descr_unit

    When opened the file you scroll down or just search with Ctrl + f for the unit you want to change turns for ( corrrect me if im wrong)

    Example with this random unit : , the place coloured red is what you want to change in order to change the turns it takes to recruit.

    Does more than 10 command helps in battle?

    You can't have more than 10 command stars
    Under the patronage of Finlander. Once patron to someone, no longer.
    Content's well good, innit.

    Are you sure about that? Chivalry and dread can go beyond 10, so I wouldn't be surprised if command could do that as well

    Well... no that's not quite what I meant... I know there are only 10 star slots, so you would think the maximum is 10 (same with chivalry) However, let's say that you have a general with certain traits that give him a total of 11 stars, will it cap at 10 stars, or will the 11th star be taken into account, despite it's not shown on the general's card anymore.

    It does work this way with chivaly. I've seen this a lot in the good o'l days of 2.1, believe me it's possible to have 12 chivalry, even though you don't see it

    But then the question is, does it work like that for command stars as well? And what about authority/piety?

    Are dwarfs slower than the other races? (marching/running)

    If yes, does it have to do with their model size or was it a design decision?

    I got two questions.
    1. When I attacked east osgiliath as Gondor the custom settlement Didn't come up, was just a normal city. Is this normal? Or am I doing something wrong?

    2. How do I get rid of the blood effects, textures from the mod?

    There seems to be something wrong, cannot tell you what ofc though, may be try a re-installation, but you will have to start a new game then. Install TA 3.0 both parts, then the 3.1 patch, afterwards 3.2. It should be the custom Osgiliath.

    2. How do I get rid of the blood effects, textures from the mod?
    You can go into the graphics option and disable bloom for example, I think this will disable the blood as well.

    Might be, but I dont think it has any affect after you have reached 10 stars, but who knows... Everything is possible!
