"To weigh in on the whole "helping the AI recruit more effectively without helping the player" discussion.

What if the core settlement chain for a region also unlocked a few of the basic units as it progressed?

The one thing that the AI is really good at it maxxing out their core chain (because its just money and growth) and it doesn't actually require them to think or make decisions at all.

Lets take Bretonnia for example.

Major regions could allow for the recruitment of peasants at tier 2, archers and basic unshielded men at arms at tier 3, yeomen at tier 4 and knights errant at tier 5.

The recruitment options would always be approximately a tier worse than if the building had been built normally, so its not a huge benefit to the player, but surely something like that would help the AI? I suppose it would mean that pure economic regions would be able to recruit basic units once maxxed out, which is a slight benefit to the player."

So I tested my mod further and here are some results :

I ended up modding the startpos to edit bretonnia to start with cav buildings because I had enough of the peasent armies.

What do you think?

I will mod the settlement chain and give them the core units. will post here the results !

Some AMAZING results!
I made the game alot more lore friendly! almost ready to release the mod!
