    Default Egypt campaign missions don't work?

    I bought a new PC for Shogun 2. But being not to happy about it I decided to replay all NTW that looks just awesome now with my new rig. So after Italy on very hard/very hard I begin Egypt. SO I get the mission to take Cyprus cause the British are blocking my supply routes and we can't get reinforcements. But I can recruit all units in Alexandria and other cities I take. Even Dromedary cavalry. I remember that I had to take a beduin city to get that unit.

    Did that get bugged in some patch? Did anybody else notice this?

    Did that change or was it always like that? I also feel like the Dromedaries weren't available until you took a Bedouin city. I know to get the Camel gunners and warriors you need a Bedouin city. The rest of the units were always recruitable.

    I played it again myself and made a units mod of local units, the link is here: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=443352

    You might be right about the Dromedary but Line infantry is there from the beggining. They shoudn't be there before you take Cyprus, right?

    I think the Fusiliers were always available. What would be neat is what you suggest: make only the local Line Infantry (with slightly lower stats) available until you take Cyprus, after that then the French Fusiliers should become available. I'm not that good at scripting so I'm not sure if that is possible

    Well I am quite sure it was like that. Cause that was the point of taking Cyprus. The reward in mission is 2000 gold and a unit of Line infantry. Now you can recruit it right away. Its just to low without any other reward for the risk you have to take to take Cyprus. Cause GB has 14 Line ships with Nelson patroling in the area. And if you land there is probably a full stack waiting for you.
