    Default Early/Late availability

    Does the Early/Late availability options in the "Units Tables" in DB Editor work in the Grand Campaign? I have noticed during my work on the next release of my mod that while it works in the Custom Battles, it doesn't seem to prevent Late units being available early in the game and "early" units being available late in the game. I find that despite setting units as "False" for early-availability, that they are still becoming available early in game and vice-versa.

    The Early/Late Availability columns only cover whether a unit is available in early or late period custom battles. If you want to stop a unit from being recruited early in the campaign you'd probably have to mod the building it is recruited from so that it's only available at a higher level of building.

    Hold on. Toontotalwar has just told me that he has managed to set units' availability to certain years in the late 1700's and it worked. How do I make units only available late in the campaign - as opposed just to custom battles - other than linking them to later buildings?
