orc faction

hey.first of all,great job,developper team.this mod is by far the best warhammer related game(though there's still a lot of room for improvement).

now to the point:i have played with several factions and i believe the orcs are by far the most hard pressed faction in the game.this is not so much because of their lack of roads(they are able to declare crusades,which kinda makes up for it) or their terrible economy(their troops are very strong and when you capture a dwarfhold or two,you have no big issues),as it is because of their scripted events.take for instance what happened in my last attempt to play with them:a crusade,a slayer army,a regular(elite) dwarven army and 2 full chaos dwarf stacks with monsters and blunderbusses AT THE SAME TIME!plus,a glitch (i suppose) which prevents me from recruiting in orc camp and gnashrak's lair.that makes the faction all but unplayable!

so my questons are:
1.how can i remove some of these scripted events?
2.is the recruitment issue really a glitch or am i doing something wrong?

What is the recruitment issue? Not able to recruit anything at all? I haven't played Orcs in latest version but everything except the Chaos Dwarves was part of the old campaign as well.

exactly.for some reason,i can't recruit anything.

I had some recruitment problem as Orcs for a bit as well, trying to remember what caused it- it wasn't a bug something I simply did not know about their recruitment. Sorry I just can't remember, I don't think it was max cap, was it general required in settlement or something else. I'll have to go read my AAR as I think I mention it there but its funny I completely cannot remember.

i've read your AAR,but i didn't found anything about it(it was,however,very well written,good job).maybe i need some buildings too to recruit infantry.

Check your export_descr_buildings file and see what your units need for recruitment, there may be an issue in there which is stopping you from making any in the campaign.

i just did it.i didn't found any special issues.also i started a campaign and built the same buildings with the region next to gnashrak's lair(da orc settlement),from which i could recruit normally.i still couldn't recruit a thing,however,so now i'm pretty sure it's a bug.

You cant recruit anything until the settlement grows, to town I think. Also you may need a certain % of orc religion fro some units - cant remember. But the main thing is settlement size.
