Total War Troy: Units - how to recruit? Total War Troy guide, tips

Last update: 24 August 2020

In this chapter of our game guide we explain how to recruit units in the Total War Saga Troy.

As you play Total War Saga Troy, you will have to participate in many battles that may wipe out many troops and weaken your army. Therefore, you will have to train new soldiers before you can move on to the next fight. The recruitment of additional units in Total War Saga Troy is unfortunately not that intuitive - that's why we have decided to explain it in a few words.

How to recruit new units?

The available types of units you can recruit for your army depend on the region you are currently in. By conquering further regions and taking over villages, you will have access to many new units. You will be able to add them into your army and thus increase its diversity and strength.

After selecting the Hero, a panel of units you already own will be displayed on the screen. By clicking on the small button at the bottom (red frame on the screen above) you will open an additional panel showing the units from a specific region (green frame) that you can recruit, their cost and the number of turns required to perform this action. A little higher (orange frame) you can notice the limit of units you can add to your army at the same time. That means you can't recruit a huge number of soldiers in one round.
