Version History 0.1 - Basic outline of the Triggers 0.6 - Refined things a bit 0.7 - Added points to the list 0.9 - Added effects of guilds. 1.0 - Added a FAQ section 3. Intro Since there is no info on the subject at gamefaqs I decide to write a faq. Of course you could get this info from the export_descr_guilds file included with Medieval 2: Total War, but my guide looks better, and hopefully explained a little. :P As follows I break the listing by Guild then effects, then by triggers. Gains followed by losses. Notice: This is my work, developed from pouring over the game files, and input from various gamefaqs users as well as BlueYoshi579's guild section. (Thanks for allowing me to use it). It is not taken from any other sources. Medieval 2: Total War as well as export_descr_guilds.txt and the data contained there in belong to Creative Assembly and or Sega. 4. Guild Triggers Guilds work on an point system. When you gather 100 Guild Points. Here to after referred to as GP. You'll receive an offer for a basic guild. When you gather 250 GP. You'll receive an offer for an intermediate guild. Then finally When you gather 500 GP. You'll receive an offer for a master guild. That does not mean you'll receive an offer from that specific guild for that specific city because you can only receive 1 guild offer per turn and limited to 1 guild per province. At the beginning of every turn the system checks for the city with the most GP for a guild and that is the guild for which you will receive an offer given that it meets the above requirements. I've found that in instances where there is GP for this settlement and GP for all settlements, the settlement's GP changes by both. For instance destroying a guild building drops that settlements GP by 120 instead of 100. Retraining of troops gives points just like recruiting. Note: Make sure you check the FAQ section. 4a. All Guilds Gains: Guild building is upgraded GP Gained: 20 for this settlement GP Gained: 10 for all other settlements A settlement upgrades GP Gained: 10 gained for all guilds in all settlements Losses: Guild building is destroyed GP Lost: 100 in this settlement GP Lost: 20 for all other settlements Normalize GP Lost: 1 per turn for turns over 25 in all Settlements 4b.

Merchant's Guild How to Get: On to my second favorite guild. Anyway, every faction I've played starts with high income as it is so you'll most likely have the 1000+ income trigger. Build the market and the merchant's wharf lines. Send out diplomats and get trade agreements, recruit merchants whenever you get the chance and take out the opposing merchants. Ofcourse doing missions as they come to you.

Thieves’ Guild How to Get: My most offered guild (and favorite). You don't really need to do much and you'll probably get offers from here when you are looking for the assassin guild. Plant a 4+ dread general. Build the tavern line of buildings, recruit and use your spies. Completing missions as they come to you. Effects: Level 1: Spies recruited in this city will have +1 Subterfuge. Level 2: Spies recruited in this city will have +2 Subterfuge, and all spies recruited anywhere else will have +1 to Subterfuge (A Master's guild and a plain guild stack as far as I know, but Two Masters' guilds do not; this trait of non-stacking applies to all agent training guilds). Level 3: Spies recruited in this city will have +3 Subterfuge, and all spies recruited anywhere else will have +2 Subterfuge (does not stack with Master's guild bonus). Gains: General with >4 Dread as Governor of settlement GP Gained: 2 in this Settlement Build a Tavern GP Gained: 10 in this Settlement Build Brothel GP Gained: 15 in this Settlement Build Inn GP Gained: 20 in this Settlement Build Hotel GP Gained: 25 in this Settlement Build Grand Hotel GP Gained: 30 in this Settlement Recruit Spy GP Gained: 10 in this Settlement Successfully Spy GP Gained: 10 for infiltration/2 per turn in all Settlements Complete Thieves Guild Mission GP Gained: 10 in all Settlements Losses: Fail Thieves’ Guild Mission GP Lost: 10 in all Settlements 4h. Explorer's Guild How to Get: Perhaps the least offered guild. Build some ships and send them to egypt, or if you are egypt to england. Anyway, somewhere far away. Build the port and merchant's wharf lines, recruit merchants. And complete missions as they come. Effects: Readers confirm that this guild increases movement points for your armies by encouraging the retinue of generals to include the Intrepid Explorer.

Swordsmith's Guild How to Get: One of the more useful guilds, It gives you the attack bonus upgrades. Anyway, build the armourer line then recruit things with a sword. Easiest being the dismounted knights. Effects: Level 1: All units recruited/retrained in this place get +1 to melee attack. Level 2: All units recruited/retrained in this place get +1 to melee attack, all Knights (mounted only) get +1 Experience. I think this bonus would stack with bonuses from thing like Jousting Lists.

FAQ Question: Do you have any similar info on how to actually GET a guild offer in a specific settlement? Contributed by ziegd Answer: If you are looking for a specific guild offer, but keep getting offers from other guilds. Accept them, then destroy the building. It'll drop the points by 120 in that settlement for that guild.(Very useful if you want a specific knight's guild) Contributed by Nordlaender Question: Paraphrase: Why do I get offers from Thieves guilds even though I don't build spies? Why do I get offers in freshly conquered provinces? Answer: You aren't alone in gathering GP any points gathered while the province is in another's hands carry over when you conquer it, also the ai loves to build and send out spies so you are benefiting(or suffering if you don't want thieves guilds...) from the ai, specifically the Successfully Spy GP Gained: 10 for infiltration/2 per turn in all Settlements Any gains or losses for All Settlements seem to affect every province not just the factions. Contributed by Steam User - Dark Angel Question: So if I understand, when my counter reaches 100 points, I get a guild offer. If I accept or refuse, does it go back to 0? Contributed by zyxos Answer: Whether you accept or refuse the offer has no affect on the amount of points. Except the 30 points you get for the guild building upgrade. Although refusing an offer pauses offers for that guild in that city for 10 turns. Contributed by bigredk001 Question: Do I have to have level 1 guilds in all provinces before I can be offered a level 2 guild? Contributed by zyxos Answer: No you don't. If you have 250+ GP in a city with a level 1 guild and 99 or less GP for all guilds in all other settlements you will get an offer for the level 2 guild. Although it is my experience if you have 100+ GP for a guild in a settlement with no guild and 250+ points in a city with a level 1 guild you will get the offer for the 100+ GP guild before the other. Contributed by bigredk001 Question: Is it possible to get the highest level of a guild in every city (if you only built that one type of guild in all your cities)? Contributed by Emperor Tromedlov Drolmai - Steam User Answer: No you are only allowed one grandmaster building in the world for any guild. Question: What's up with the Horse Breeder's Guild? Answer: In my opinion, it is an oversight in the game because most of the triggers are for the castle line but it is a city only guild. To change that you need to mod the export_descr_building file, search for horse_breeders_guild city then delete the city part of the three incarnations there. Once done, It'll look like: horse_breeders_guild requires m_horse_breeders_guild requires gm_horse_breeders_guild requires There are 2 spaces between guild and requires. 6.
