Gondor- Royal Officer's Academy

[Keyser_Soze]

Hi, For Gondor, the Royal Officer Academy (structure that allows +2 experience for all units recruited or retrained at said settlement) does not work. It simply retrains or recruits the units as expected, and then does nothing. I seem to remember the building before it working, which is irritating.

Not certain about this, but it looks like the requirements for the existing barracks have been reversed for the city and castle.
I added the text in red.
Normally the castle buildings have a c_ preceeding them.

What I am trying to say is that the castle is checking for the presence of a city building and the city is looking for a castle building.

I have not played Gondor yet, nor have I tested this yet. Maybe someone with more coding experience can confirm or refute my findings.

hey i have a question, how do you get gondor archers and soldiers to wear their grey armor, because right now when i ply with gondor they wear like a black wool costume which i have seen in the film but i cant get them to wear the grey one, please help. i dont know if this is the right forum, so sorry if it isnt

If you mean gondor archers as in the unit and not the militia, then you need to get the second armour upgrade. this requires the biggest smith building- easiest/only possible to get on minas tirith, it's going to cost a lot, though!

no i mean like when i go on custom battle and select gondor archers and heavy artilary they have like a black vest instead of the grey armour from the movies

Give them the "silver" armor upgrade on the unit selection page...Make sure you give it to all of them.
