hey, is there a way to be able to recruit iberian medium cavalry as the Romani? is there a way to input them into the unit recruitment roster in iberian cities , like include them with the units you already can recruit like the light infantry and skirmisher cavalry. be able to input them into a certain MIC? How would i be able to do that? I hope i was able to put my questions out correctly. What files would i hav to edit? I know historically the Romans made great use of spanish cavalry and they were famed riders and its a shame the Romans cant recruit them. And no offense or n'thing but the Hispanic and Gallic Auxilary Cavalry really sucks balls lol. Im not a big fan off skirmisher cav.
If anyone has any suggestion that would be stupendous Thank you
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!!!

Assuming there is no 'regular' way (i.e. it isn't part of EB this way) to recruit them:
Provided the Romans can use that model (i.e. do not already have a unit on this model)... yes there is. But you have to mod it in yourself.
Briefly (files are found in ...\EB\data folder):
-Open descr_model_battle.txt export_descr_units.txt export_descr_buildings.txt
Make a back up of those files.
In the EDU find your desired unit and add seleucid to the ownership. See the other entries for how to do this.
In the EDB find the desired unit and copy the recruitment code over to your Roman MICs (should be A & B IIRC).
In the DMB find the desired unit and copy/past a new skin entry for the seleucid faction. Make sure to cover for the sprite as well!
(Else you'll probably end up with CTD's which disappear upon reloading. So before every battle you have to crash it first before it'll work so to speak.)
Test it. If it doesn't work you could try some tutorials which undoubtedly will exist somewhere over here at the ORG or somewhere over the TWC. Or somewhere else.
