    Default Missing units Ottoman

    Hey Guys,

    A while ago i bought all the elite units donwloads but the problem i have is that when i play the Ottoman Empire a lot of units are not available to me.
    For example; Libyan Kuloglu, Palestinian Auxiliaries, Cairo Janissaries and a couple more.
    I printed out a list for what the requirements are but no succes, i tried everthing.
    New campaigns, just building the barracks that the list says i require but no units which is starting to piss me off a little bit.

    Did any of you guys have the same problems with the Ottomans? And what could be the solution?

    In a campaign that was already started before you bought/activated the dlc, you can't use it. I discovered this when i was halfway a marathas campiagn and bought the elite units of the east.

    So unfortunatly you will have to start over if you want the units in it

    I tried several new campaigns with them but no succes
    When i click on the researchbutton down right(at turn 1) en then click on the most highest military building then i see several of those new units but when i start building later on they are gone...

    This also happens for the units that you can get in the balkans, there i only get the Haydut Irregulars
    With the maratha there are no problems getting the elite units of the east, so what goes wrong with the ottomans?? I miss about six units that i can't seem to recruit...

    Does the DLC works with the Marathas?

    Have you bought any other DLC and do they work? Cause i haven't played yet with the ottomans.

    Come to think of it, i'm playing a campaign with Prussia, but strangely enough i managed to recruit 2nd hussars before i got brandenbrug gate, and i haven't been able to recruit Bosniaks. However, maybe i'm not far enough. With russia it all worked.

    Besides, has anyone noticed that the elite unit page of CA is messed up? it says frei-korps and the pictures shows russian garde a cheval

    http://www.totalwar.com/empire/elite-units/

    EDIT: scratch the thing with 2nd hussars and prussia problem. It's the damn pictures on their sites which are confusing. just read the 2 first lines

    DLC works with the Marathas, i played a prussia game and had the 3 elite units in my armies.
    I bought the whole package; Warpath, special forces and the elite units of the east, west and the americas.

    I played with other nations and had the units, it's only the ottoman that's screwed up.
    The only thing i can think of is that maybe the units are lost because i go from an AM to CM but then again i did the same when playing prussia( AM--> CM) and the three elite units where still available to me...

    Follow this guide in a new game...
    Wanted for:
    Breaking and gluing back together and trying to pass off as never being broken in the first place.
    Assault with a weapon that couldn't have possibly been deadly, but unfortunately was

    "You know what they say: give a man a fish, and he'll stink up the whole town. Give a man a fishing rod -- see where I'm going here? Give him a fishing rod and he'll poke your eye out."

    They all work in my game with the Ottomans the only units I have not fielded are the european copies "Nizami" units as I have not researched european doctrine ... nor do I plan to as long as I am winning every battle with my regular units. Not sure what the problem is in your game ...

    Found the problem; it was the 4 turns per year mod which screwed everything up...
    I'm getting the Ottemans units now, amazing how a simple little mod can screw with the game...

    Hopefully now CA will fix the bug when you siege a town and the walls are destroyed that the game still will run smooth...
