New player needs advice

Hey all,
I downloaded this mod about a month ago and I have to say I love it and it's much better than the real game, I am playing England right now and Its turn 73 and Im still making armys with levy spears, light cavalry and pesant archers. Why can't I get any advanced troops? I should be able to recurit Sergent spearmen, it says in 5 turns i can recurit some, but it still wont let me, even when I have a general on the war council in the city. any suggestions?

Welcome to Stainless Steel,
I see from your post that you selected BGR3 on the 6.1 patch tickbox, plus RR/RC as well you. You need to go to the BGR sub mod thread and at the bottom of the first post is a Data Zip, you need to install. Sadly this is a restart my good friend, so all your good campaigning must start again

Im sorry to ask this but i have no clue what BGR and RR/Rc is, what are those?

Fuzzy Security,
BGR is Byg's Grim Reality 3 and RR/RC are Real Recruitment/Real Combat. When you installed Patch 6.1 there were four tickboxes and it would appear that as you mentioned 'War Council' that you selected the BGR3 tickbox on installation. The Data Zip fixes this error that you have. I would strongly recommend that you visit the Sub Mods section and check out the BGR thread, to see if it what you want. If it is not then install Patch 6.1 again and leave the BGR3 tickbox blank. There is also a thread for RR/RC, likewise the same with this.

If you do like playing with BGR and RR/RC I'd suggest using the compilation of the two. It can also be found in sub mods forum. It includes the latest of both mods with regular hotfixes as well as many other great submods and SS6.2.
