Guv's Captain Retinues Overhaul Mod (Updated 2021-06-15)

Description
Introduction
Yuan Shao has it pretty neat with all his captain retinues. Imagine leading an army with only 1 leader. Like the good old days. Who needs 3 pesky nobles to lead an army? None I say.

What does this Mod do?
  • Captain retinues are now available to all Han Factions, not just Yuan Shao.
  • Bandits have their own type of captain retinues.
  • To increase usage, technologies and certain unique resource effects and even faction rankings have been improved to include buffs for captain retinues.

Some Info
Here's a detailed description of what this mod has done:

Mod:
  • All Han and Bandit factions gain access to Secondary retinues. Han factions gain Captain retinues and Bandits gain Bandit retinues.
  • All Han factions, like Yuan Shao, unlocks better tiers of captain retinues as they progress.
  • Liu Hong and Jin Empire has access to special Imperial Retinues. Super expensive, but contain Imperial units.
UI:
  • Effects mentioning Captain or Mercenary retinues are now called "Secondary Retinues", to bind them all together into one unified understanding.
Technologies & Culture:
  • Some Han Technologies provide Upkeep and Recruitment cost reductions for Secondary Retinues. (Regional commissioners, Garrison Conscripts, Hierarchial Enfeoffments, Extension of Conscription Period)
  • All Outlaws & Outcasts provide Recruitment cost reductions for Secondary Retinues (max -70% cost reduction).
  • Yellow Turban faction ranking provide Upkeep and Recruitment cost reductions for Secondary Retinues and in a faster rate.
Faction Specifics:
  • Tao Qian's resource now provides Recruitment cost reduction for Secondary retinues at the later stages.
  • Yuan Shu's faction ranking provide a minor increase in Recruitment cost reduction for secondary retinues.
  • Yan Baihu's unique resource provide Upkeep cost reduction for secondary retinues.
Eight Princes:
  • All Eight Princes factions gain access to Captain retinues.
  • Eight Princes Faction Ranking system also unlock better captain tiers, similar to Han factions.
  • Jin Empire gain access to Imperial Retinues.
  • Certain Technologies reduce upkeep and recruitment cost for captain retinues.


Compatibility
Should be compatible with anything that doesn't try to do the same I guess.

Hey Guv, first thanks so much for this mod. One of my biggest problems with 3 kingdoms is the retinue system. That being said, Im a bit of a "modder" myself, in the lightest sense,

Is it possible to remove or edit out the retinue system entirely? Just hard force the game to have 1 general and 19 regular units? Surely theres like a way to modify army settings in the DB to make 1 general able ot recruit 20 units, of any color, and lock the army to only 1 general. I assume it would have to be done like 1 retinue recruit limit 19, but im unsure if you could force stop the recruitment of more generals. Is this possible at all? Iv been looking into it myself and im having trouble, but I cant see it being impossible considering how TW is built upon iterations of itself, the original systems should still be in place.

I mean, you enabled the Yuan Chao Captain Retinue(no hire heroes, instead hire captains) to all Han factions, right?

No idea what you mean
