If you mod units etc - will it take effect in an old save game?

e.g i was thinking of modifying the disounted druzinha and dismounted boyar sons, to stop them being identical

if i did this and loaded up my current russian campaign would the changes appear or do you need to start a new campaign?

Save games will usually get broken if you remove units. I'm not certain about modifying or adding units. Try it :smile: but remember to backup...

Hmmm...I've added, subtracted and edited units add it's never affected my save game. I guess I should have been more careful. I didn't think units themselves would affect the game.

the only thing i can think of that would stop a saved game from working would be removing units/buildings... everything else should be fine

At Cormaeg, what if a faction had already built a full stack of the unit you removed?

Hi Myrdraal! Gotta say, I've really enjoyed and benefitted from your contributions to these forums.

As to the unit edits and removals; I was generally just altering units of that particular faction that I was controlling in the savegame. However, the units I had removed were still there and functioned the same, I just could not replenish them. You see, the only way I removed them was by removing their recruitable from the edb file - I should have clarified.

So, in reality; the units were still in the game.
