    Default Unrecruitable Units?

    Alright, so I've had IBFD 7.03 for a few months now, and I only just noticed something strange. For a few factions, it seems like I'm unable to recruit some of their top-tier troops. Looking at the building browser for the Saxons, for instance, I see no building that allows me to train gesithas (two-handed axeman), even though they show up on the faction's roster in Custom Battle mode.

    Are other people having this problem, or where certain units removed from the game with the various new versions?

    Thanks.

    I've moved this thread to the IBFD forum.

    In response to your question: IBFD 7.03 have actually been out for several years, and does have some minor bugs and other stuff that needs to be ironed out. However, at the moment we're busy working on the next version of this mod, called RVINA ROMAE, and unfortunately we do not have the time or the manpower to address the issues of old IBFD.

    However, recrutiment issues are normally not that difficult to fix if you have some basic knowledge of the files in question, namely the export_descr_buildings.txt and the export_descr_unit.txt, both of them found in RTW/ibfd/data.

    Unlikely, but you never know.

    Ok, thanks for the response. Sorry for posting this thread in the wrong forum, I'm still kind of finding my way around.

    Since I'm not exactly tech savvy, I'll probably just wait for RVINA ROMAE. All of what I've seen of it so far looks awesome!
