Question about Recruitment...

**Duguntz** · 05-23-2009, 13:18

Hi everyones! It's not my first thread nor my firat post, so I'll guess that majority know that I'm a huge Sweboz fan... I have one question concerning them :

There's a mercenary unit wich too many ''W'' 's in the name to remember it properly, all i know is that they're uber powerful wild men that refuse to die in any circumstence, wearing a wolf pelt and axe, recruitable in germania. The wild wolf-men i'll Call them!

is there any way or any provinces in wich I can recruit these maniacs? I heard ther were worshipper of Wotan... is it by constrcting the last LVL of wotan temple in a certain province? or are they really only mercenary?

I mean, they're really usefull... aP axes, fear inducing, a charge of 10, and boost nearby units... it's a kind of less powerfull German version of Gaesate, with AP!

So can anyone tell me if there's a way (appart of modding, coz I'm a real shit with comp. in general) to recruit them?

Thanks and cheers to all!

I always thought they were mercenary-only, but apparently according to EDU, the Sweboz can recruit them. I checked the Recruitment Viewer, but they are not there. Nevertheless, RV is outdated. So who knows

Does anyone know the file in the EB Data folder that says where a unit can be recruited?

I would like to know that too, those guys do awesome job on the flanks.

I read once (I don't remember where although) that these guys were recruitable in only one province, close to the capital swebolandam.... So i suppose that as they're fanatics of Wotan, it's by religious building that we aquire them... i guess that one way to see it is to build the max lvl temple of Wotan in every provinces... so we'd be fixed... but... then it's only supposition and it'd take a lot of time just to know that lil info.

Nothing is sure though... Can a modder who knows where we can recruit them (if it's possible) would have the kingness to enlight us, poor swebi, with their light?

They are available as mercenaries only in eastern and northern Germanic provinces (Swebolandam, Rugolandam, Silengolandam, Kimbrolandam, Auwjogotanoz and Skandza). I managed to get one unit of these guys in my Makedonia campaign

Edit: I think the Wodan fanatics are not the Worgozez but the Woithiz Watha, yet another unit of Germanic nutjobs. Wouldn't be too surprised if the Worgozez didn't have any religion at all.

The EDU does not determine recruitment, only availability (that is: whether they are available in custom battle and whether they will join your side if you bribe them). It is the EDB that determines whether a faction can recruit a unit.

Unfortunately, I haven't got EB installed here, so I cannot look it up for you.

Checking EDB....

No mention of Wargozes in EDB. Ctrl+F-ed for Wargozes and Germanic Mercenary Shock Infantry. Did all possible combinations, still nothing. Looks liek one cannot recruit them. I would not be surprised. They are not supposed to be recruitable or trainable. Their description says so. One must go into deep forests to find them, not build barracks in towns.

I get that quite a lot actually. I am always that guy in life who ruins people's plans with a certain statement backed by logic, facts, or science.

I believe can do this for you, Duguntz, although this will be highly inaccurate.

This is your answer. They are not recruitable from any Swêboz barracks, unless you manage to mod them in.

haaaa, could you check it whenever you got a PC with EB? I'd do it myself, but I really don't know how...
