Hey guys. I needed to make a reference for myself on what various nations *actual* rosters are and figured I'd post it here. Feel free to add anything you've observed and I'll edit it in.
Late Age
Atlantis: Still has the special underwater guys from Dom3. Still needs a fort to see them.
Bogarus: Black Hood and Styag: Horse archers with and without lances recruitable out of any province that doesn't have a fort.
Middle Age
Bandar Log: Markata and Atavi out of any forest.
Pangaea: Your unarmored satyr, minotaur, harpy, and centaur troops can be recruited in any forest. So can black harpy and satyr commanders, and your standard centaur mages.
Asphodel: Same as Pangaea, using Asphodel's centaur mages.
Marignon: Flagellants and H1 stealth priests (with 40 leadership!) anywhere with a temple.
Vanarus: Vyedma (W1E1N1 +1 FAWN) and Vyedun (F1A1E1N1 +1 FAWN) available from any forest with a lab. Both are "inept researchers", but actually quite efficient nonetheless.
Jotunheim gets all its normal Vaetti units out of any forest, including the +1DSNB hag, who is an inept researcher, but still really damn cheap.
Early Age
Ur: Longbowmen and light infantry recruitable anywhere with no fort. Also Enkidu Shaman (E3N2 +1 NEW). Swamps have Bone Reader (D1E1 +1 DEW) and two berserkers, one with stealth. Unsure whether swamp forts can build them.

MA Jotunheim can recruit their Vaetti out of any forest. That includes the Vaetti Hag if they build a lab in the forest. But even without they can field goblin spearmen, wolf riders, and wolf riding chiefs. And Moose Riders. It's actually a pretty robust fighting force out of any woods they happen to conquer.

Yes. You get all the Vaetti units in all forts and all forests. And three out of five of them are pretty awesome and important (Vaetti are 6/square and hit like hammers, Vaetti Hags are 40 gold for 5 research and are your blood hunters, and Moose Riders are archers that are also heavy cavalry and yet cost almost no resources).Orion wrote:Can they recruit them from a non-forest fort?
