Can Late Bodyguards be had in the campaign?
I feel noobish asking this, but is it possible to get Late style bodyguards in the campaign game?
I've developed an appreciation for Italian Plate armoured armies, and its weird having my full-plate armies commanded by generals in chain or partial-plate...
So, is there something I'm doing wrong, some sort of building or turn requirement, or are they just multiplayer only?
Any response would be appreciated, thanks.
Re: Can Late Bodyguards be had in the campaign?
They do not appear normally in campaign games. You also cannot mod them into the game that every new family member uses them or that you can upgrade early to late generals.
What you can do however is to make late generals hirable.
Want gunpowder, mongols, and timurids to appear when YOU do?
Playing on a different timescale and never get to see the new world or just wanting to change your timescale?

On a related note, is it possible to switch the early bodyguards for the late ones? Ie. you will only have late bodyguards in the game.
Still maintain that crying on the pitch should warrant a 3 match ban
Re: Can Late Bodyguards be had in the campaign?
Is there any way to make them as an armor upgrade? All general's bodyguard units have one armor upgrade in game. Could they be modded to include a second upgrade (silver shield) using the late general's bodyguard unit?Originally Posted by FactionHeir
It seems kind of strange that they can have one armor upgrade which completely changes the look of the unit, but a second one cannot be modded in...

That could be done but the mount would look the same.

Maybe I'm remembering wrong (I haven't played in a few weeks), but I thought there were many units whose mounts changed with armor upgrades. Dvor Cavalry come to mind.
Re: Can Late Bodyguards be had in the campaign?
Mounts never change, only the rider. If you go to the EDU, you can actually change the type of mount the cavalry uses. eg. armored horse gives you the late european plated horse
Weird Facts I have contemplated
-Thesaurus is not a species of dinosaur.
-Potassium is not found in potatoes.
-Its Naples, not Nipples.
-All roads certainly do not lead to Rome. Does your state highway link you to it?
- Dog is God spelled backwards but praying to dogs is a bit stupid.
- Fart is Hydrogen Sulfide with methane and oxygen and is indeed flammable.
- Igniting a fart is painful.
Re: Can Late Bodyguards be had in the campaign?
Nope, Dvor cavalry certainly don't (I checked), and I can't think of any others that do, either. Unfortunately.
At least the man's armor can be upgraded to something more modern. Maybe that could make the top-tier armorer actually useful, too.
I do wish they'd "fix" this, though. I like fully barded horses, and the late period generals start looking so... outclassed. Poor guys.
