Retinue Cap is determined by a combination of your Realm Size, Rank, and Military Organization Tech.

If you're an emperor, all you can do is conquer territory and research Military Organization.

If you're a count, duke, or king, you can also try to get to the next tier title.

Keep in mind, Retinues are super expensive, so you should build cities and markets before you get some more.

Here's a link to the wiki page for this: http://www.ckiiwiki.com/Retinues

Search the workshop for "retinue", I think there are at least a few mods that makes retinues cheaper and/or plentiful. Or just open the defines.lua file with notepad++, search for "retinue" and change the desired values.

Also if you want the pre Charlemagne 500 man retinue units back, you'll have to edit the 00_CastleCulture.txt file (copy the file first and use a mod, don't edit the vanilla file itself).

I mean like increasing the size of the retinue itself. One's there was a workshop item that increased it backed to pre Charlemagne, but it disappeared.
Also if you want the pre Charlemagne 500 man retinue units back, you'll have to edit the 00_CastleCulture.txt file (copy the file first and use a mod, don't edit the vanilla file itself).

how do you mean?
