One clarification though: I wasn't suggesting that you be able to recruit all of a captured nation's troops - just the one's provided by the magic site in the nation's capital. So (unless things are changed in Dom II) no Knights of the Chalice, and no Arco priestesses - For Arco the unit (in Dom I) provided by the magic site is the Astrologer, and for Marignon, the Grand Master.

Still, maybe you (Johan) are right that it would mess up the diversity of the nations too much.

Problem with being able to recruit site specific units from home provinces is that for example in Pythium, you would be able to recruit Arch Theurgs, not the more mundane theurgs and acolytes. In a beta build of dom1 you could do what you suggested but because the troops that you got where the most exclusive and unique of the nation. If anything the opposite would make more sense, that youcould recruit theurgs and acolytes, legionnares and gladiators, but not Archtheurgs.
