Pahlavan Client kingdom

[Jebivjetar]

When i conquer a region i have option to build Client kingdom. My question is: what does it do? I cannot recruit client rulers when i build it, so if anyone can explain to me what Client kingdom option does and what effect does it have for cities in which i build it?

Thanx !

It's a perfectly normal type 4 government. You are always able to recruit client rulers via this institution. There are, however, some provinces that do not have any mercenary general assigned to them. One of these is Sind, the southern Indian province (the other is Kush, I don't know if there are more - perhaps in Arabia). My guess is that you tried it there...

Edit: Nomad client kingdom allows the construction of some useful buildings, e.g. lvl 5 regional MIC, Huge Caravans, and Fortified Granaries. Pahlavân reformed government is still much better though, so if you can choose between the two, choose the latter (unless you want some specific regional units that are only available on lvl 4 or 5 regional MIC).

Ok. I have allied client kingdom established in Damask: i can build regional MiC just like you've said, athanaric, but i can't recruit mercenary general (neither does a.c.k. building have merc. general in building description)... so i wonder if there is some patch/fix for that? And i'm sure that Damask can train mercenary general with other factions because i have train them with Epeirotes in one of my previous campaign.

That's funny... my Client Kingdoms are working just fine (unlike my computer, which is quite dead )... Perhaps somebody else can answer this.

I can't recruit mercenary generals with pahlava neither

[Jebivjetar]

I'm doomed. My hardly earned settlements are going to revolt without appropriate governors

[Jebivjetar]

bump!

can somebody help?
anyone?

Sounds like you didn't install the 1.2 bugfixes, the problem was sorted out nearly a year ago.

1.2 fixes you should try before posting

[Jebivjetar]

Thanx, bobbin!

I have installed some fixes but i can't remember which ones. I guess it's the one for general recruitment what i missed.




EDIT: yep, edb.zip it was. now i can finally train merc. generals and expand even further without fear of rebellion (i have one BIG Pahlavan empire )
