whenever you right click on a unit on strat map you get a picture/description and below descriptive terms about the units stats like:

vert strong charge
armoured
disciplined
good attack
excellent morale and so on.....

my question is, when you mod a units attack/defend/charge numbers etc do these automatically change the descritions in the unit panel

for instance: does very strong charge = a charge value of 4, so therefore any unit with a charge of 4 automatically has this written on thier panel

and discilpined etc are these descriptions tied into the unit stats? therefore if i mod these values in the crusader11 file they are auto updated?

if any of that makes sense and you can answer thanks http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wave.gif

I think so... at least I dont see why it shouldn't. The unit description files dont have any set listing of Strong Charge or what have you, not like the GA files. If you change the numerical values the descriptions should change (at least the variables at the bottom. The text description has to be rewritten if you wish to change that)

so the characteristics of the unit shown in the info pic change a the units stats change,

the actual description of the unit is another thing entirely...

i actually got the courage to test this for myself and yes the descriptive terms are auto updated after tweeking and saving them in the crusader11 file

All the stats and descriptions related to them are defined in the prod file things like tooltips also.
adding a new one for guns would be nice http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif
