[CH3] Art Of War, and beyond - Only Freedom Fighter NPCs considered as units when adding units to an assault.

So I'm trying my best to get through the quests, but trying to assault a location, be it Egret or otherwise, tells me I don't have enough troops. Going to the desk of a nearby outpost says I have 33 soldiers available, but when trying to assign them (Add max etc) to the assault, it assigns none of them. Really infuriating.
None of the classic symptoms of corruption are showing (Can't assign to plots or move settlers etc etc. All are working fine.) and not even the bug where plots would have classes missing depending on where you placed them, is present.
So I don't know if this is a save file corruption and I'll need to start a completely new run, or if it's a genuine bug?
I'm expecting the worst, but I still have a bit of hope.
In a previous bugged run (Where the missing classes bug happened) it took several tries having Sal guide me, but it did eventually work, despite having a similar issue with this particular assault, so I'm not sure what's going on this time.

Any help is appreciated, even if it's just "Your save is corrupted."
I just want to play this awesome mod.
Update: Figured out the actual issue. Turns out the system refuses to use actual conscripted settlers, and instead ONLY uses the Freedom Fighters. The one assault that I had work was only the Freedom Fighters with me. When I next tried to do an assault after turning on allowing injured soldiers to join me, I had one soldier join me, going to manually check with the "Add units" option, it was a Freedom Fighter soldier.

I mean the mod spawnable unique settlers, that didn't work. The Settlers added by SS2 does work, but I don't have that many.

Good, so it's still a workaround that works (bad that it needs it but..). You can cheat yourself some caps and spam The Ron with it. But you can also try the current beta, one of the things it tries to fix is that.

I'm having the same issue. I have 10 available warriors, but it's not letting me use them in an assault. Additionally, I have way more than that, but it's only counting 10. I'm really not sure what's going on there. I tried manually assigning, but it only shows 2 available to sign when I actually try to send the assault and says not enough warriors.

In the city planner holotape there is an option in the tools to recalculate settler counts or something with a similar name. That should hopefully fix your issue. If it doesn't... then I fear you may have corruption in your save file.

Actually, I gave up on that save because I was having problems with plots. When I tried to destroy a plot, my game crashed. I tried replacing it, but it would never reconstruct so I started a new game, as much as it pained me, but I did remove some mods for the new playthrough. Hopefully, I will not have any more issues. On a side note, it would be nifty if there was a language filter built into the mod to remove cursing, but I would not know how to do so. I will let you know how things turn out when I get to that point of the game. Thank you for your response and have a wonderful day.
