have you got -show_err on your shortcut? (ermm, if not why not?)

missing unit things should give -show_err error message when you exit game...

If you remove a unit from export_descr_units.txt you must also make sure it is not in descr_strat.txt, descr_mercenaries.txt, export_descr_buildings.txt, descr_rebel_factions.txt or descr_sm_factions.txt (as horde unit).

I have the same problem, I tried deleting druids and it worked apart from the campaign I think it was the campaign folder as custom battles worked.

export_descr_buildings.txt defines where things can be recruited in the campaign - that is most likely file to cause campaign but not custom battle problems if you remove unit.

again do you have -show_err on shortcut?

just to be sure ..

you are saying you removed an archer unit from an army on the campaignmap by editing the descr_strat file ??

if so and it just returns to the gamemenu you most likelly messed up in such a way that you like removed the xp-settings from the above army...
(things like naming a general in a way not defined will be cought by show_err, but many other, mostly "slip ups", wont get cought by it ..... afaik)

I again have no errors although it may be the strat file as I am never totally sure about it.
