Stable Master Buff?

Stable Master Buff?
I was reviewing some regions in my empire and much to my delight I found that I had a Stable Master in one of my (non capital) regions. I quickly started vectoring various cavalry to the region to receive the +1 attack. After several turns no unit has received any buff at all. I also have the Master Armorsmith, and my units have been receiving that buff just fine, but the Stable Master does not seem to be working. What am I doing wrong?
Re: Stable Master Buff?
you only get one such +1 per unit, so for eg many cavalry can get it from either the stable master or the armoursmith, so its possible that all your units are upgraded?

Re: Stable Master Buff?
I experienced the same thing from the Stable Master..nadda.
Re: Stable Master Buff?
Well if that is true, then that is good to know about a single +1/unit, so thank you! However most units i put with the Stable Master were NOT upgraded from the Armorsmith, though a few were. So bottom line is that the Armorsmith does not appear to be working for me at all.
Re: Stable Master Buff?
ok
second guess - and it really is just a guess. In my last game I had one that I built, and over time rotated my armies into the region, got the +1 et al.
near the end of the game, I captured a second one. Now I know I left armies in that region and I'm pretty sure I never got any upgrades off it. Now it was near the end of the game, it was just about possible that my heavy units were already upgraded, so I paid nil attention to the issue.
but does this fit your instance? that somehow you got a second one?
sorry just trying to offer a possible explanation

Re: Stable Master Buff?
I suppose it is possible, but I'm not aware of one. I admit that I stumbled on to this one, but I must have had auto build for the province and it showed up. I havnt conquered any rich real estate lately that may contain another Armorsmith either, but I will try to keep my eye out for one. Any efficient way to try and find out where one may be?
Re: Stable Master Buff?
The ledger identifies any unique buildings so a quick scan will spot if you have two
Re: Stable Master Buff?
Ah yes, the ledger! According to the ledger I have no other Stable Master. I did the next turn and again no Stable Master upgrade, HOWEVER I noticed that the unit parked in the region got a +1 defense... so it appears to be acting like another Armorsmith.
Re: Stable Master Buff?
Equipment (for unit) visibility will be improved, but probably not for the incoming patch. For now, only one equipment allowed per unit, you can't accumulate several.
EDIT: I mean you can't accumulate.

Re: Stable Master Buff?
Hi Pocus, any idea why the Stable Master isn’t working properly in my case? DesertedFox reported a similar issue as well.
Re: Stable Master Buff?
Not really, it should work for LC, MC, HC in the same way as Master Fletcher. If you have a saved game with a non upgraded cav that don't get his new gear, then please send the saved game at support@slitherine.co.uk. It's not too late to fix the bug before the patch release...

Re: Stable Master Buff?
I think it is working now for me. Earlier I'll take a stab at what I think happened. I had three cav units in the region. Only 1 upgraded after a number of turns. I think it kept selecting the one that had been upgraded randomly in following turns.
Re: Stable Master Buff?
Interesting DesertedFox...well I can confirm that cav units keep getting the +1 defensive bonus, NOT the attack bonus.
Thanks
This is an MP game...there are no saved games for MP are there?Pocus wrote: ↑Sun Sep 08, 2019 8:32 am Not really, it should work for LC, MC, HC in the same way as Master Fletcher.

Re: Stable Master Buff?
No, and that's a pain for us to identify and get files. I'll check on my side again if there is something odd on the Stable Master.

Re: Stable Master Buff?
I can confirm that my units who eventually did receive the bonus received a defensive +1, not and attack bonus.
Re: Stable Master Buff?
err yes, this is what the SM does.

Re: Stable Master Buff?
Hmm, then there’s a conflict. According to Grognerds Guide it says the stable master gives a +1 attack bonus, but we are getting a defensive bonus. Is the guide incorrect?
Re: Stable Master Buff?
no its +1 defend, this is the norm for the master buildings. The exception is the fletcher where you get a bonus on ranged attack.
Re: Stable Master Buff?
Hi, what section of the rules are these upgrades in? I can't seem to find them
