Seeing double recruitable units

**auboy** · June 12, 2014, 04:29 AM

Playing as Epirus I am able to recruit two units of the same kind? There are two greek light hoplites of the same kind and two levies of the same kind. They are both the exact same unit but one of each has better stats. So I recruit the better unit. Does the AI? Why not get rid of one of these duplicate units that have different stats so that I am not getting a cheat over the AI here? Plus its just confusing and looks bad?

Sometimes you can recruit the same unit in one province for multiple reasons, which makes it show up several times on the recruitment options. e.g. as Galatia I can recruit Galatian Levies twice, as Galatia is a separate AoR to Cappadocia. Hope this helps.

Do you have a picture of this? A picture would be handy so someone can identify the problem (also one of the buildings you have constructed in the province/region would help too).

A reason for it could be that it is a bug with the new cultural training system; you can recruit a Greek culture unit because there is a high Greek culture and you can also recruit the same type of unit with higher stats because it belongs to your faction.

In this scenario I guess that each unit would both be two different entries rather than a duplication. The cultural recruitment version should therefore not be available for your faction, I guess.

I think it's this: A lot of AOR units share the same UI card and name as some factions' core units, but have worse stats.

exactly. The AOR units have less morale compared to your core units and no description for now.

It must be this then. There is no description and the charge and morale are much worse. Its the first turn and I have not built any units. Its easy to replicate just play as Epirus and recruit standard units near border with Athens. So if the AOR units are much worse than your core same exact unit then why not at least make them cheaper and not the same price? Otherwise what is the point? Because I will just always recruit my better core unit anyway. At least this way if the AI recruits the crappier units they will get some advantage in cost...

The point of AoR units is that any faction can recruit them if they own that area. You just happen to be that faction...
