Issue with battle of Yenwood field preparation

[rafsack]

During the preparation step of the quest Battle of Yenwood Field when you are speaking with the fellow in your keep for the first time who is helping you muster your forces one of the options you are given in the dialogue tree is to spend 10K copper to hire veteran troops for your main force. When I got this option I had to choose the option that I didn't have that much coin on me at the time, cause I didn't. I came back later and have made several further attempts to speak with him since, but it seems that there is no way to get back to the dialogue option to talk about hiring veteran troops if you are unable to hire them during the first time the choice is presented to you. Wonder if anyone else has had this issue and if a work around has been found beyond reloading a save prior to talking to the fellow for the first time.

Hey guys!

 

Turns out that there was a bug, but it was fixed on our end, so thats why I couldn't see the issue. This fix will be in the next coming patch! 

 

Sorry guys!

Hey rafsack,

 

Welcome to the forums and thanks for joining us! I haven't come across this issue, I just did it myself and I was able to get the dialogue back and pay the money. Speak with the Marshal >  "Lets talk about my army"  > Hire veteran troops. There you should be able to pay for the troops.

 

Let me know if that works.

When I speak to Marshal and choose "Lets talk about my army" I get the following choices. "Where am I getting my troops", to which marshal responds about sending out a call for volunteers and that any hirelings I have will join me in the battle. "Whats the status of my regular troops", too which marshal responds too green and too few and that loses will likely be heavy. "What special allies do I have available", to which marshal responds that the crucible knights will be sending a contingent. and "That's all for now" which returns me to the main dialogue tree.

Hello,

 

I'm having the same issue, I've talked to Forwyn once, went through all dialogue options except the one about marching to battle,

option to hire mercs for 10k was available during initial conversation, but I've decided I'll follow up on this quest later, and now there is no option to hire mercs

Hey drachenfeles,

 

Could you please upload a save file and an output log so I can take a look? You can find out how to do that by clicking on the link in my signature.

 

Did either of your participate in the steam beta?

 

Thanks!

I am also having this issue. Really frustrating. I feel totally overwhelmed by this quest and this was my one hope I thought... went spending 3 hours making the money only to see I couldn't do it anymore. Is there a workaround?

Same issue here, exactly as described. Here's the most recent save file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4ib1jPHMOQ0RUlwN0tXb0t3d2s/view?usp=sharing. Hopefully you'll be able to fix it!

[Tenrius]

Oh, and I do have Steam beta update.

I've deleted it, sorry, that was stupid of me

nope, I'm using GOG platform with standard update (i.e. no beta patches)

[rafsack]

Thank you very much.
