Playing as the Sauromatae, I have a warlord's camp in Gelonus, yet I am not able to recruit anything besides a diplomat.

As Pontos I cannot recruit the elite Galatian unit (Kuarothoroi) in Galatia even with the highest level of MIC...and I have tried all possible governments...

Pontus: In Nicomedia with a type 1 Gov I can't recruit anything with the MIC 1, and the MIC 2 lists Batacori as the only avaliable unit.

Hayasdan: In Armavir, Kotais, Mtskheta and Kabalaka (but there are probably more) with type 1 government I cannot recruit the Thanvabara archers with MIC 3 (and I assume they should come before that).

On the Pontos and Hayasdan recruitment issues: You guys will have to bear with us, even with the patch. Some reasons why units aren't available in some of these areas is that there are more units that we will have coming down the pipe soon and we didn't want to overlap. This is very true of Pontos and Hayasdan especially, even among all other factions. Plus, we are still trying to hash out the length of time and types of troops Pontos would be able to recruit in a place like Bithynia. And we aren't all agreed on it yet. But I'm a constant advocate inside for getting more troops available to these two factions in these areas, and we will get it remedied eventually, especially when more units make it into new builds, that we hope will be soon also.

No Hellenic factions seems to be able to recruit Thorakitai in Aetolia, is that normal ?

Probably a mistake. Our unit recruitment fix it man will be back in a day or so and we'll let him know.

BTW, what a nice sig you're sporting there!

LOL !

A new strange recruitment: Pontos is unable to recruit Akontistai in Dardanoia and Illyria Hellenike.When checking the recruitment guide it seems that all factions can recruit Akontistai in these two provinces except for Pontos/Sauromatae/Pahlava/Yueh-zhi.
Maybe it's normal for the steppe factions to be unable to recruit here but I find strange that Pontos can't when Celtic factions for example can have Akontistai here.
