No..Its unique troops for each town..its like different town different troops same faction..
That would be very useful..I seen that in mod The Last Days..Sir William the Brave said:
A fairly basic script for the specific towns using 'party_add_members' would do the job fairly easily.
Well, at first you need the troops and the towns. Towns are already around aplenty, so let us skip them.
For troops you may duplicate and then modify or write from scratch one of the existing troop trees. Basically, create new troops, link them with the "upgrade"- and "upgrade2"-functions to form a tree.
... Now, you have to cut off the normal way for the towns you aim for to receive troops. From a quick look this seems to be done in the simple trigger headed with "#Hiring men with center wealths (once a day)". The relevant code block would be
For the centers you desire to have custom troops, you may wish to reroute the control flow from script_cf_reinforce_party to a custom build. Or you could check their ID within the script and there switch away from standard procedure, your call really.
See these lines? You could define three party templates for each town, containing the troops you desire; replace the faction templates fetched here with custom templates if the current party is one of your chosen centers and let the script proceed normally. That seems to be the easiest, quickest solution.
You want to do it the right way, though, not just hack it. Right? Right!? Sure.
So, check for the center ID in the beginning (right after "(store_script_param_1, ":party_no"),") and put an (else_try)-block around everything to the last of those three lines I just showed.
Into the (try_begin) you shove an (eq, ":party_no", <one of your chosen centers>), and then an "assign" for the 'a', 'b' and 'c' templates.
For each of your other chosen cities you add an (else_try) between the (try_begin) and the (else_try)-block holding the original code.
There, done. Unless there are other sources of troops for a center, of course. You will have to hunt down these on your own.

]),Warband vanilla. But as it is nothing outlandish it will work in M&B 1.011 as well... without modifications even, if I am not mistaken (have no MS for that anymore and will bother to fetch as much as you bothered to tell us whether you need 1.011 code in the first place).
