Hi, did you start your current campaign before the e1.5.3 patch update or is it a new one?

For this save, I started the campaign before the new patch.

Can you create a new campaign and try to recreate this? The fix may not be affecting older save files.

I have this same problem. Several dead(greyed out) leaders for minor factions. Can't recruit them. Started game at 1.5.2 i believe.
