How do I recruit Forbidden Workshop regiments of renown?
I've unlocked two of them, according to the ingame interface, but they still simply say "Cannot recruit unit" in the recruitment panel.

So... what am I missing? Is there an unspecified level requirement on the workshop? Is there some other unlock condition? Has one of my mods simply fubared them? (Tried deactivating all mods, it doesn't help).

Once you get enough upgrades in the Workshop under each specific units you get access to the special ones as regiments of renown

That was my first thought, but a freshly recruited lord sitting in Skavenblight has exactly the same issue. The normal RoRs are recruitable for all my lords just fine (they're appropriately locked or unlocked depending on Ikit's level).

Which one did you unlock? I've unlocked two of them as well, and just tried, I can recruit them just fine in my provinces. The two I've unlocked are the warpfire and the warplock jezails FW RoR.
I can obviously also recruit normal RoR just fine.
The lord I used to test was a Warlock master who was only lvl 7, so not a problem of level either.
I don't use mod, except that bug fix for the jezzail's projectiles.

The first two from the weapon teams. Jezzails and whatever the other one was.

yeah so the same units as me. I can recruit them just fine, maybe it's a mod for you causing problem then?

I was able to recruit them just fine.

Maybe you need to have a Warlock Master as lord, since you can give some of the special items from the workshop only to Warlock characters? Since I don't have them unlocked yet, i can't try.

I'm using the mod manager, so was able to activate all those just fine.

Also, I reverted to an earlier save, got to a point of being able to get the requisite workshop items, then disabled all mods to continue. Still doesn't work. Whatever is breaking, it's breaking comprehensively and permanently.

2 yrs later .... the units have to be unlocked twice, check the reward bars in the workshop's sections
