Hi there. I'm really enjoying EB 1.0, but I've noticed something weird re: Custom Battles. I selected the Romani, but when I got to the unit selection screen, I noticed that there weren't any Roman infantry units to choose from. There were two Roman cavalry units, but that was it. When I selected a random army, the infantry units were sometimes included, though they still didn't appear as a selection. I remember the same thing happening with chariot units in the earlier version. Any idea what the problem is?

There's a seperate EDU in your EB folders that needs to be replaced with the campaign one for custom/historical battles. Don't forget to backup first! (There are also a couple of batfiles available to automate the process for you. Check the forum.)

MAA, do you think this bit should be added to the FAQ?

Welcome to the ORG and EB! :ave:

It is in the FAQ, it has been for some time:

Q: In custom battles or multiplayer the unit selection is missing units.
A: All of the regionals cause a problem for the custom battle / multiplayer list. There is a special EDU for custom battles / multiplayer in the "...Rome- Total War\EB\mp custom game edu" folder. Rename your campaign EDU then place the EDU from that folder into the "...Rome - Total War\EB\Data" folder. When you want to play a campaign again, switch back to your original EDU.
