Mongols?

[Masonop]

I couldnt find this anywhere.
So Im wondering how to play as the Mongols?
Because when I select Late Campaign, I cant seem to find them at all.
Do I have to beat the game first like in the normal version?
Or are they not done yet?
Its sort of strange, because I looked to see if I could play as them in the custom battles mode, and still couldnt find them.
o.o

*and by Mongols I mean The Golden Horde.
They should have a faction symbol that shows a horse on it, apparently I cannot find it.

Golden Horde

[Masonop]

They still dont appear on the Faction list.

[Foultrajik]

Yes, thats very odd. Sometimes when I restart the game its not there, and sometimes it is. Just restart and about 50% of the time its there, just quit it, and come back to it. Its a black icon with a gold horse in it, by the turks.

[Masonop]

Well this is most likely a bug, and or tech issue now.
I still cant seem to find them, even with doing what you suggested.

Is there a way to enable them in a certain file or something?
Right now, Im terribly confused.

[KittySN]

I've never had this problem. How interesting.

[Masonop]

Yeah, its wierd.
They are the only ones missing too.
Ill try re-installing everything and see how that fares.

HURRRRR... MY SCREEN'S BIGGER THAN YOURS!
But in a veerrrry small thumbnail!

[Foultrajik]

heh, weird. Even though I clicked the late era campaign, it defaults to the early campaign if I dont click the highlighted "late era campaign" and then hit next. Im pretty intoxicated, but I think this is correct.

And KittySN, ur a gurl? No wai?! Dos u haev l33y7 cumpooter?

[KittySN]

I'm not dignifying that with an answer.

[Foultrajik]

I'm not dignifying that with an answer.

I cant blame you...



Just trying to elaborate on the possible problem, If I dont click the highlighted it defaults to early period. Which seems kind of counter intuitive due to to the fact that I already clicked late period campaign. I guess its kind of a moot point... lol idk. Let this fade into obscurity...

[Vaz]

Well, late period campaign is actually "Custom Campaign" in all other mods - it's just that the FE has had the text strings changed from Custom Campaign to Late Era Campaign.

Just highlight the Map, and progress.

[JorisofHolland]

You can check if they are playable marked in the descr_strat.txt of the Late Campaign, but I don't think that's the issue.
About the custom battles; use the search funtion and you'll find an answer.

Actually, I've run into the same problem trying to play the Teutons in 6.1. I couldn't find them no matter how many times I restarted and ended up playing my Teutonic save game from months before... and quickly realised why the game was abandoned... And yes, I did click on Late Campaign.

Check if mongols are there and if they're not try moving another faction into nonplayable and see if that works. Using the Kingdom of Heaven mod kwarz was not in my late campaign so i moved cumans out for kwarz.

SS can only support a certain number of playable factions.

SS can only support a certain number of playable factions.

You can have as many playable factions in the campaign as the game allows (i.e. 31). It's only in custom battles that there is a lower limit.

When i used the KoH mod in late era i had to switch one faction out for kwarz because it didn't show up in the faction list, so i find it a bit wierd that you say that when it clearly wasn't so in my case.

This never worked for me on the initial faction choice screen. I could only pick up to 12 factions before the game crashes when I choose the 13th. So I basically chose my 12 and while in game toggle the rest to human control.

[Vaz]

Is anyone else able to play the Mongols in Custom? They never show up for me. I never use the Spanish Factions either, so would remove Leon-Castille from the Custom battle to allow the Mongols to be perfectly honest.
