What Level is Apprentice?

[Star_Kindler]

I have a level 7 farmer but even he doesn't seem to be able to research a forester, it still says "Requires Apprentice Farmer." What level farmer do I need for the game to consider them reaching the level of an apprentice? Do I actually need someone with the title "Apprentice Farmer" or something for some reason? How do I tell if someone is an apprentice, or where to find them? I don't get how this works.

It is not a level, its more like a profession.

You can only recruit apprentices after you liberate a town and become Bellwright of that town. Different towns have different apprentices. Need to liberate several towns to get all you need to unlock all research.

Oh wow okay... I thought liberating towns would be only after reaching T3, I didn't know you were expected to do it right after reaching T2!

How do you even liberate a town, anyways? I've heard you need to construct a bell tower, but I don't know how to do that. I'm not in the game atm, is it in the tech tree? I didn't notice it when I was looking through early T2.

Get trust high enough, speak with elder. Get revvolutin going. (make sure your guys with your when you initiate that, as all brigands in the town will turn instant hostile). Once you killed the brigands in the town. Build a belltower asap. A brigand tax party will start make their way as soon as you killed the brigands in the town. Defeat them if/when they arrive.

Once the belltower is up (you only need to place it and bring the materials, the village people will build it in no time). Talk with the elder again. A brigands reclemation party will set out to take back the town. You need to defeat them. Every few days a new reclemation party will set out of which you need to defeat. (you can turn down the frequency and size of these in settings).

On normal settings, the reclemation party will be harder to fight than the initial brigands you fought in town. Some good tier 2 armor, maces and shileds on your guys would help.

Thanks! I'm excited! I've been waiting to get revenge on those brigands!

You don't need to do anything like liberate a village you just have to hire an apprentice from any village that has one, and you have enough hp. This applies to any apprentice innkeeper/farmer /hunter etc.,
