I really should know how to do this...and I am SURE it is something I have done before, but I can't get the damn thing to work!

The skeleton army is currently all set to replace Gaul completely. Every unit has a replacement. The custom battles were using 'barb_general' as their leader, and 'barb_standard_bearer' for the unit boss. The second one was easy to sort, with a leader added into EDU after the soldier type.

The overall leader does not appear to be specified.

I created a 'skel_general' in place of barb_general, but can't find any way of influencing it. The gaul skin was removed...and it switched to briton...so it is clearly picking up barb_general from somewhere....please tell me it isn't hard-coded....

Thanks...that was the one. For some reason, I thought that was just the strat map!

To see the skeletons...nip over to the forge, and check out the 'rehab modelling thread :2thumbsup:
