I believe it's the Outpost level that determines what you can recruit (assuming of course that the province can produce units you want. Low level Outpost = low level units only. Note that you need a Military Alliance to upgrade them, so if you're only at Defensive you'll be very limited in what you can recruit.

The biggest problem with allied recruitment is the measly 2 allegiance per turn, which doesn't go up even if you upgrade your outpost. There needs to be a way to purchase allegiance at, say, 100 gold per allegiance point, which roughly coincides with the recruitment cost of allied units. Having to wait more than five turns for a single Helstorm unit is unacceptable.

Vassalize them? They then give 3 per turn. Also there are techs and events that gift you allegiance points. Although I agree that gifting money should give allegiance or like you said there should be a way to make more of it in a hurry.

No - it was always like that. Not that i used it much though - only one time to try it. Because the disadvantage of allied recruitment is that there are no buffs for these units if it´s not the same culture.

And as high elves i would personally prefer the sisters of avelorn to hellstorm rockets, as the latter only have limited utility, except You don´t care about friendly fire. On ultra unit size the hellstrom rockets do 1.2k damage per 17 seconds (given they hit) - and the Sisters 1.76k per 10 seconds (mostly AP damage, which can also be further buffed) Of course the former have longer range.

its just a visual bug, when your going to build the outpost it sometimes shows wrong units/no units. if you build the outpost it should let your recruit the units that are available in the area. the upgraded outposts let you recruit from there global recruitment.

You require higher level of a outpost to recruit from the entire provice. The first level only lets you recruit from that single region. Tier 3 let's you access all unit's they recruit.

You can do the missions they offer.
