I just got this mod two days ago and its really good best mod i have played so far good job guys. Anyway the minor problem is that playing as the Epeiros every time i go into a battle where the enemy has two or more armies, the fight will load, but every single time their re-enforcements are delayed, and never show up. This happened first time, then second then third and i thought ok unlucky but its happened like 10 times now and never have they turned up. I have seen lots of posts about re-enforcment bugs but i have never seen anyone post this yet so any help is appreciated.
Thanks!!!

No it's not a bug, it's a feature. If the reinforments would cause too much lag for you comp to handle *ie too many men on the field* it "delays" them. They will come at some point, kill off 1/4th of the army and just sit there for a while, they should come. Or turn down the graphic settings and/or turn down unit sizes for the next campain. What unit sizes are you using, EB is balanced for large.

This is a feature of vanilla RTW. If you want to disable it, open up your preferences.txt file and enable UNLIMITED_MEN_ON_BATTLEFIELD. This will stop all reinforcements from ever being delayed in battle, but does not allow you to personally control more than 20 units still.

Can someone help me out?

I recently fought a battle with my stack facing off 2 Pontic stacks at a ford, and lagged like crazy. They all came on though, and did just stand there for a while, sending single units and then having one loiter around on my side for a while until I crushed them. Then an offensive was launched, but failed miserably, like my computer almost did.
