Default Re: Two very good ideas!(i promise)

P.S. That isn't to say that you couldn't play a metagame with this anyway, though. The way it would work is that you decide to play Ulm, and you also decide (by bidding against your opponent, or just by yourself if you're in SP) that having 1 black knight per point of PD above 20 is worth 30 points, so you make a mod that says:

#selectnation 2
#defunit2 <whatever the black knight is>
#end

And then when you create your pretender, leave 30 points unspent. Just because nation design isn't built into the game doesn't mean you can't make it part of *your* game.

[Edit] You could do the same thing by making your capital-only troops recruitable anywhere, and simply abiding by the rule that you only recruit them at your capital or an enemy capital. This only works well if you and your opponent trust each other as human beings, though.
