Question about Bribing Armies

**★Bandiera Rossa☭** · May 25, 2009, 02:25 PM

As many of you know when you bribe an army that has units you cannot recruit they are disbanded. Is there a way you can make it were they can still join you? Is there a way I can add them to all factions but only let their natural factions recruit them?

Yes, add textures/sprites for all factions and ownership for all factions to every single unit in the game . . . a ridiculously large amount of work which is why it usually isn't done.

So it would be possible to do this and not have all countries able to recruit them?

Yes, if you do only what I describe you won't be able to recruit the units. If you wanted to recruit the units you'd need to add (or alter) the appropriate entries in EDB, so as long as you don't add them you won't be able to recruit the units.

or Squid if you dont use faction colours on units its just a matter of changing EDU and adding another texture thing in modeldb with the same skin

Would this not make it were you would randomly get these units from buying a region? Nothing wrong with that, just wondering.

Not sure what you mean by random as you'll only get ownership of the units that are in the settlement at the time that you buy it.

What I mean is that if you buy a region through the diplo screen (not the bribe screen) it has a bunch of random units (mostly low tier units) that I assume has to do with the pop or something.
