for anyone saying this doesnt work- this mod edits the startpos files which means it will conflict with other mods that edit those files too i.e. 12 turns per year, load this at the top of the order & disable any other startpos mods. happy longbow hunting

this mod still does not work

But did them really have longbow then??? Dont Longbow come later?

Unfortunately, this mod does not work, even in a new save

Empeor_Koda the wise Do you have to start a new campaign to get them to be recuitable. Or may I'm not doing the changes right.

for all how want to make it work again just use the packfile manager extract the Technology_unite_upgrades into the modfile and add the line vik_mil_missile_2(2 for testing you can set it higher for balance) wel_longbowmen 150 eng_armoured_longbowmen you will see it in the packfile manager why in this order. But be aware thats self modding and we all arrent allowed to upload it because the file is not our property.

I write this just for a self help option it works for me

Doesn't Work in Campaign. Cannot recruit however, Long bowman do appear in the garrison now. (playing as Wessex)

Please update this - this mod would be awesome

doesnt work in campaign :(

Hello!
Can you make a version where Elite Longbowmen are an upgrade of regular Longbow?

The unit doesnt show up as a recruitable unit

You can't play with save game sry. Please start a new campaign. Sty for this

I see longbow in my cities but the archer I can recruit are still the classic one from the wessex. Do I must restart a game to have the update acting ?

Thanks. If it's fix my campain it's perfect ! Will try it

mod is updatet now - i delete the upgrade and the amoured_longbowmen is availebel in missle_6
i dont test it, but it must work. please tell me any mistakes
regards musculus maximus

i take a look for this, think its need an update. i create this long time ago!

Don't install this mod. You can't remove it during a campain and you will never have any upgraded bowmen, even the vanilla one.

so i cant recruit the units. but they do show up in garrisons. i know this doesnt solve the issue but figured it might help the mod maker

experiencing the same issue as paolo

Hello everybody:
Mod work perfectly on custom battles, but don't work in campain (new campain start)
Anyone can help me? Thanks in advance

Not sure why none Welsh factions would have longbows

both people below me with issues about the replacement of the elite longbowman, that is a problem with the game so far as I have seen, any mod changing high tier units to another or just reskinned , they get replaced when the research is done because the game things they are still the original unmodded archer which would have gotten an upgrade from the research in vanilla ToB.

English retinue archer mod I like, has the same issue sadly.

so, could you tell me what should i do?

in level 6 the welsh longbowmen will replace the elite longbowmen,i can't recuit this units ,all elite longbowmen can be upgrade from the welsh's units

great mod when playing the english kingdoms but when i play as the welsh and get higher tech for the archers i lose any longbowmen and it just reverts back to regular welsh bowmen do you know why this is?

causes crash when paired with 15 other mods =)

Longbow is inside here so you need no other

Does this have to be run with your previous long bowmen mod or just on its own?

nice thank you

Ok custom battle permission is online :)

could you make the Longbow and the Elite Longbow playeble in custom battles?

no its working, i take a look again. Missle Tech 6 is Elite Longbow and Level 3 is Longbow

Just installed 12/31/2018 version and started campaign as Mierce. No longbowmen show up anywhere in Missle tech branch. Mod broken; at least for Mierce.

It's coming soon with my new Mod Uhtred of Bebbanburg

Could we get a mod that gives the viking factions better long ranged units?

this mod is working fine - dont use any other Units Mods - thats not compatible

And west Seaxe isn't getting longbowmen or the elite longbowmen.

doesnt work with radous

Mod is updated with last patch 31.12.2018

update plz

doesn´t work with 12TPY mod

This Mod does not work for West Seaxe, either fix it or remove the mod please

does not seem to work. I have the units in custom battles but when in campaign i cant recruit longbows or elite longbows

Very cool！And l have learned how to mod startpos by your work, thanks.

All mods with startpos Edition Can make Problems

@Musculus Maximus Thank you for your reply. Somehow to bug is still existing to me, I might have to reinstall the game and the mods. Do you know any mod that could make things go wrong with your?

@StagsG4 this problem is solved with update from 18.6.
you start your Game before or after update? when before - you must start a new Campaign!
Sorry for that mate

Help!!!!!

This mod is amazing, it only has one flaw for me which is that I can't recruit elite longbow's the game let me upgrade the normal longbow's, but after I get the upgrade it only let me to recruit normal bowman and I can't upgrade them like previously...

i found the mistake, it was a double unit nr in startpos
now its correct running for the english factions!
Update is uploaded

@maximus entschuldigung, mein deutch ist nicht sehr gut. Die mod idee ist gut, es braucht nur ein wenig veranderung, um alles in ordnung zu bringen. hope that made some sense lol but dont worry yourself too much about it

thats curious, but i take a look again to the files, i am a Little bit helpless
