Gifting Settlement Mechanics?

**Badger-dude** · November 19, 2012, 05:22 AM

Hello all,

I have noticed that when gifting/buying a settlement in W:TW (and possibly other TW games... I have only reall done this in Westeros), a fairly large number of troops are spawned. In my Fire and Blood submod, I gifted Mistwood from Renly to House Stark to allow them to defend the South from the Dornish/Targ/Hightower invasion threat. Much to my surprise, almost a whole stack of poor quality troops was spawned. I can understand a unit or two being spawned, or if an algorithim calculated that settlement's worth to the player who just gave the settlement away and then 'bought' troops of equal value to garrison it... But the current system seems quite... random. Does anyone have any insights into the mechanics behind this?

I believe that in Hotseats there is a rule governing this, where these troops have to be bisbanded. Am I reading the rules correctly?

the Workshop section of the TWC forums is the place to ask!

Seems like a pretty "rare" case , though

I can offer little insight but this is usually true, gifting back n fourth is viewed as abuse.

I gifted Harrenhall to Joffrey in westeros enchanted, spawned some 8 units of armored spearmen.
When he gifted back i as lannister got 8 units of town militia, strange thing and quite broken
