More Huscarls

[wanderer949]

hi

Is it possible to change the amount of Nord huscarl's a lord or king gets
as I have noticed they seem to hardly get any huscarls, compared to how many rhod seargents, the lords and king get for the rhods.

So is it possible to boost huscarl numbers so the nord lords and king ragnor actually get a good group of them
I did do a search but didnt come up with much.
thanks

Well, Huscarls are like a Tier 6 troop IIRC. A Rhodok Sergeant is comparable to a Nord Veteran, as they are the same number of steps away from the base recruit (Nord Recruit/Rhodok Tribesman). Therefore, Huscarls, which are after Veterans, take more XP to train and therefore are less common.

http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,46290.msg1270446.html#msg1270446 describes how, in the code, Lords and settlements get reinforcements. If you fiddle around you could give higher-tier troops to Nord Lords, eventually resulting in more Huscarl concentration. Alternatively, you could manipulate the code at http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,46290.msg1267952.html#msg1267952 so that Lords get more experience, also resulting in more Huscarls. This would apply to all factions, however, so if you want to boost the Nords specifically no dice.
