    Default Unique and eligible units for capitals garrisons .

    Hi .

    Do you think its a good idea that we have 3 or more sorts of unique units only for capitals' garrisons that we can choose the ones we want ?

    I mean its good if we have the ability of choosing the types of unique guards we want which can depend on our city size , population , maybe the level of our garrison , tech tree etc but what is important is that those units are different with other cities' guards ( only for the capital ) .


    what do you think ?


    Do you have any better idea about that ?

    Well I liked Samurai retainers and even Onna-Bushi as dedicated city defenders. Perhaps the Urban Cohorts for Rome in times of need, or even researched so every high-level Province capital can have them.

    I'm kinda given up on what we would like and what we really gonna get, but yeah I like to see the praetorian guard for Rome, and garrison of Rome ( if by name only ). Maybe slight better stats mixed with regular troops and that goes for any faction.

    I really hope they implement actual garrisons instead of the tiny ty samurai retainers that couldn't fight off a unit of spear levy

    What are you talking about, the Samurai Retainers I had could fight off a whole group of 2 ashigura easily.

    wut? my samurai retainers could beat all the ashi rebels they threw at me, was like 2-3 ashi spears and 1 bow ashi and with just the retainers they kicked but
    what I would like to see for garrisons in the future total wars would be to have some kind of spending pool and once you upgrade a city or at the beginning of the game you choose what type of units you want to defend the city and you buy them with the money on that pool or maybe with resources or something the options would be to waste all the money/resources to buy a few elites or to by a lot of cheap units so you could end up with 3 heroes of sparta or 20+ levy peasants or somethin

That was the real issue of the Spanish war, and of the last war, and perhaps of other wars yet to come.”

    Nope, just militia and villagers. And a handful of trained soldiers.

    You mean an empire's capital can't have a professional and unique guard ?

    Weren't Urban Cohorts a city unit? Could be good if there is a system like this
