So it sounds like you can only recruit one unit, per unit-recruiting-location, per turn? In CoE2 you could essentially recruit an unlimited number of units at a citadel or tower or fort, etc., assuming you had enough gold.

Correct, one recruitment per turn per citadel plus the commanders and one-off specials of a certain kind.

Soyweiser, for the classes that have unannounced special recruitment, it really is not a problem. Most of the time the recruitment offer messages are more annoying than missing unannounced specials, because missing those is not a big deal. Playing Bakemono, missing out on 3 Dai Bakemono or 3 Dai Bakemono Archers is not going to be crucial, they come and go, likewise for the Jaguar Warriors, Moon Warriors and Sun Warriors of the Priest King and the lesser units available for the Troll King.

Missing the recruitment of a troll may be annoying, but trolls generally cost an arm and a leg and you can practically bet the next 20 turns' income that as soon as you do recruit one of them, the next turn there will be a wizard or a giant on offer, and those are always announced stuff.

Missing one turn of unannounced stuff is nowhere near as bad as forgetting to renew mercenaries in Dom3.
