A while ago I couldn't recruit lords and the reason seemed to be because I did not have an unclaimed fief. I now have an unclaimed fief and still can't recruit. This is everything I can think of telling you about my game.
Faction: Sarranid Rebels - I am the ruler of the Sarranid Rebels according to my Character report and the Factions section of the database.
RTR: 99
Honour: 149
Captured fiefs: 3 towns, 6 castles
Available fiefs: 1 castle, 1 village
I was helping Arwa. I told her to go when my RTR was over 50. I have wiped out nearly all of what was left of Sarranid Sultanate after their war with Rhodocks. I have 3 towns and 6 castles. Only one castle and village remain. I made myself lord of all fiefs until the last castle I captured because I didn't know I needed at least 1 open fief.
I now have 1 open castle and village and still I can't recruit. Whenever I talk to a lord, the conversation is always the same. This last one was on the world map but he was alone. I asked to talk to him in private giving 2 options
"What do you think of kings, lords and politics?"
"What do you think of king Graveth?"
If I pick the first one he makes a statement. If I pick the second he says "Long may he live". That's all there is. After either option I end up back at the previous screen with the 2 options. There are no other dialog options. It's like that with every lord I talk to. What am I doing wrong? Is it because I haven't conquered the original faction yet? It doesn't make sense that that should be a requirement. 1 castle and village remain.
