someone told they came with the game and how do you recruit them because you can't recruit units on african coast

You have to mod it if you have no Special Forces.

You need to have the special forces edition and to have ordered the game through Amazon.

I would have preferred to get the Deaths Head Hussars, personally.

As far as I know you cant recruit them,
I was able to get about half a stack of them when I invoked a revolution in 1701 and my rebel army was made up of them

What's that unit? Is that a joke thread? I have SF and never heard of them. They're not featured amongst the SU.

Anyway, the only Black African troops I encountered were the African Indigenous Infantry you can recruit with France (maybe others) if you conquer North Africa. Available in Tunis and Morocco.

This "amazon" thing sounds like a teenagers fantasy to me and btw if there were some tribes where women went to war, It's absolutely not a standard amongst African tribes and kingdoms.

Take it easy hombre

I thought It could be a spoof (lots of merry jokers in TWC!) and YES I wanted a screener because It's not featured in the doc (I have a boxed edition). Still, this is fantasy.
2 question now:
- Where and how do you recruit them? Please be more precise.
- Are there any other "hidden" SU in this edition? That's neat

EDIT: I just noticed they were in Brandenburg with Prussian (well, german republic): WTF ???!!!

Start here;
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dahomey_Amazons

Available with pre-order editions from Amazon.com.

Oretty sweet you got any sort of special edition?

**PlacidDragon** · April 14, 2009, 09:26 AM

They are one of the three pre order special units (Amazons, USS Constitution and Deaths Head Hussars).

You can only recruit them in North Africa (Morocco, Tunis, etc).
