So I'm pretty far along on a Brettonia Playthrough, I've slowly been taking over Brettonia by getting us involved in wars on multiple fronts, and after we lose a castle or town, I quickly siege it for myself.
But now I've started a game as the high elves, did the freelancers thing, with wages and loot I got a little over 20k and I saved up a few sets of different armors, I played upto Dragon Prince Rank, Lothern Sea Guard Rank, and White Lion Rank. Saved up the equpiment for future companions. I have a couple questions for the community though. I'm trying to do a "lore friendly" playthrough, so being that I live in Uthluan I can't have any non high elves step foot anywhere but Lothern, so that means my companion list is extremely limited, does anyone know how to edit the game to change the race/names of companions? And also while I was freelancing in the Elf Prince's army I noticed in larger battle that there were these units called "Elf Nobles" that rode on White Lions. Does anyone know how I can recruit that unit, and get a White Lion Mount for myself?
Thanks for the help guys. Also, does anyone else notice that most losses in naval battles are due to your units falling off boats? Or is it just me?
Each faction has a very powerful, special unit/troop.
High Elves have Nobles, Dark Elves have Dreadmasters.
These are significantly more powerful than a regular unit/troop and the only way to get them is to own a Town and build a special upgrade which periodically spawns them in the garrison.
-although-
If you chance upon an enemy Lord that has taken one of them as a prisoner, you can recruit them after you defeat said enemy Lord - even if you simply help a friendly Lord who is engaged in combat with them; the player always gets first pick from freed prisoners.
Beware that they are
very expensive to maintain though; very high wages.
