Description
If you like this mod, please click the thumbs up.👍

Retainers/Ancillaries mod. - I recommend you use this mod with my People mod as they share the same style portraits.

Not compatible with Fourstrider's Retainers 1 which is why I created a new mod instead of breaking peoples saved games.

This should be compatible with most other mods, it was designed to be used with my overhaul.

Over 1,000 unique retainers for generals and admirals.

Retainers for agents have been turned into scrolls, there are 53 unique scrolls per agent type.

Both retainers and scrolls follow a 4 tier system.

Tier 1 = Green (Low stats)
Tier 2 = Blue (Mid stats)
Tier 3 = Gold (High stats)
Tier 4 = Red (OP stats)

On each retainer/scroll selection you'll have a % chance at each tier.

1st selection = 80% Green, 15% Blue, 5% Gold
2nd selection = 80% Blue, 15% Gold, 5% Green
3rd selection = 90% Gold, 5% Blue, 5% Green

At all stages of selection, there is 1% chance to get Red.

Note: Some of the effects in this mod are for units that are only found in my overhaul mod and some other mods.

As always... you have my permission to use my mods however you see fit. Have fun!

If you value the time and effort I put into my mods and wish to pay me back, then I ask you donate to the DCCH Center for Children and Families. They are a local(to me) residential treatment center that provide care for children. You can donate by following the link below.

You could do this with Editsf and open your save file. It'll take some digging to find which ancillaries you have already. Hard but not impossible.

Sorry if already asked but is there a way to modify a save file and manually edit retainers for a general?

Basically trying to recreate a campaign I had going that got corrupted :/

It does indeed seemed to have fixed it in my game!

Each portrait has a green, blue and gold version but once one general gets one version he can't get the other two. A different general however can get a different version.

Oh, i simply got a green and a blue defense bomus. Same retainer but different bonuses. Tought it was impossible to get the same portrait twice XD My bad.
fourstrider  [author] 27 Jul @ 3:36pm 
I may end up switching to a 90-5-5 5-90-5 5-5-90. I want there to be a chance at a gold on tier one.

Can you explain the duplicate you got? If the green got you general def +5 and blue general def +5 but blue should also have another stat making it better and not a duplicate.
Hoonting Richard 27 Jul @ 11:39am 
Could you change selections to:

1st selection = 95% Green, 5% Blue
2nd selection = 95% Blue, 5% Gold
3rd selection = 95% Gold, 5% Red

Think about it like a tier system with simply a probable one and a "critical" one.

Had an unlucky triple green roll on my actual Daimyo. So give at least us the chance to get a minimum Green + Blue + Gold and not less than this pls XD

Also...in my last game i got two identical bonus (General def) Green + Blue. Shouldn't this be impossible, by description?

@Gestalt I tried that once, but somehow unable to recruit port units, only sh*t Japanese units, so I went back to the classic
