Add Red Sea Hoplites to KH roster...

I would like to add the Red Sea Hoplites to the KH roster, so that if they (I) conquer southern Egypt they might gain access to the local soldiery. Can this be accomplished by making the unit recruitable from the local MIC, and giving KH ownership of the unit, or do I have to cut and paste the model as well?

I'm sure how to exploit the Mercenary_unit thing, but If you end up not being able too, it might be a good idea just to add Ekdromoi recruitment there.

Ah yes... Make a merc unit recruitable from a faction barracks. I have done that before, that is a good idea. If they are available as a merc unit I will try it...

Edit: No such luck, it appears that they do not have a mercenary model that would inherently belong to all factions, so I will have to try something else.... Ekdromoi are essentially the same unit, so that would be the one to add... thanks again for the advice!

You have to copy one of the redsea skins to the merc slot in the descr_model_battle.txt as well as add the merc tag in the EDU.

Ah yes, thank you... that was exactly the info I needed...

Would you mind posting you change?
