Recruiting Iberi Lancearii with the Lusotann?

[Brave Brave Sir Robin]

I believe they require either a lvl 4 regional or lvl 5 regional barracks. What is worth noting is that they require REGIONAL barracks rather than native. That means you will need either a Type 3 or 4 government.

Ok I understand now, I think I will just edit the file so I can get them with a level 1 gov't. Thanks!

That's true for the Carthaginians, but not for the Lusotanians. Also, according to the recruitment viewer, they require a level 5 barracks for the Lusotanians (type I government only) and a level 4 for the Carthaginians (type III or IV government). They are only available in Carpetania, Edetania and Lacetania (and technically Bastetaia and Turdetania, but IIRC you can't install type I government here). Are you sure you can't recruit them when these conditions are met?

BTW, Spain and Egypt are the names of the vanilla R:TW factions: in EB these slots are taken by Lusotania and Carthage.

Nope Lusotanians require a level 5 regional barracks to recruit the Lancearii, this strikes me as a bug though.

Oh yes, I just recently discovered that the hard way.

That does sound like a bug. I am moving this to the main forum to see if we can get a response from the team there.

Yeah, no real reason the Lusotann would want to build type 4 governments in Iberia so why make the cavalry a lvl 5 barracks and not lvl 4 like Carthage? I'm on the side of a bug.

Whoop bumping up old thread, but is there a way for me to change it so I could at least recruit iberi lancearii in a level 3 gov. ?

Are you playing as Lusotann? I'll try to help you, might take a while til I know the answer..
It has to with copying the entries for iberi lanciari in the EDB to the right barracks me thinks, I'll try to get a more detailed answer soon.

I'm quite sure this ought to do it:

First make back-ups of your EDB.

In the EDB (export_descr_buildings) search for:

city_barracks_F1 requires factions { spain, saba, } and building_present_min_level government gov3 and not hidden_resource not_here

And then place this entry under it:

recruit "iberian cavalry heavy lancearii" 0 requires factions { spain, } and hidden_resource NW and hidden_resource A and hidden_resource n1 and hidden_resource y2 and hidden_resource y4 and hidden_resource y8
recruit "iberian cavalry heavy lancearii" 0 requires factions { spain, } and hidden_resource NW and hidden_resource A and hidden_resource y1 and hidden_resource y2 and hidden_resource n4 and hidden_resource y8 
recruit "iberian cavalry heavy lancearii" 0 requires factions { spain, } and hidden_resource NW and hidden_resource A and hidden_resource y1 and hidden_resource n2 and hidden_resource y4 and hidden_resource y8
recruit "iberian cavalry heavy lancearii" 0 requires factions { spain, } and hidden_resource NW and hidden_resource A and hidden_resource n1 and hidden_resource n2 and hidden_resource y4 and hidden_resource y8
recruit "iberian cavalry heavy lancearii" 0 requires factions { spain, } and hidden_resource NW and hidden_resource A and hidden_resource y1 and hidden_resource y2 and hidden_resource y4 and hidden_resource y8

And maybe we should wait for confirmation from an other member that this is correct, because I don't have too much experience with modding.

Which recruitment viewer Do you use? In my one, which was part of the downloads of EB 1.1 and 1.2 it is said, that lusotannan can recruit iberian units only in regional barracks. And I think that makes scence, because the iberians should not be seen as part of the Lusotannan and if you want to have iberian units, you need to give some of your iberian provinces some kind of freedom (Lvl III and IV Government). Historical wise I'd believe, that the whereas Carthaginian use of iberian soldiers is proofed, no Lusotannan ever ruled over the eastern Iberians.

The only thing which disturbs me is that the northern iberian skirmishers are seen as native soldiers...

[Brave Brave Sir Robin]

I think the use of factional and regional barracks to differentiate the various warriors across the Iberian penninsula is meant to represent the different cultures present in the area during this timeframe. You have peoples heavily influenced by the Celts such as the Galicians, and Celtiberians. Others like the various Iberii soldiers are much more native Iberian in their culture and style of warfare. Unless I'm mistaken, the Lusotann have Celtic influences so it makes some sense that Iberian units need regional barracks.

For example, look further north and see that the Siluri Warband in Western Britain are regional units for the Casse. This represents their unique culture among the other various Brittanic peoples.

No idea, sorry. Everything on my computer had to be reinstalled, so I can't tell which RV version I was using for that post.
