Help? - Less-Generic Mercenaries
I figured if i wanted to start modding this would be a good place to start.
as it stands i'm just a bit overwhelmed by all the information...:dizzy2:
In short in sum; I first want to ask if its even possible -
then I will no doubt end up digging thru endless lists -:book:
so lets see if its feasible or has been done already.
In short; i would like to 'excuse' the mercenary crossbowmen; m spearmen; etc...
The GENERIC mercenaries -
and replace them with Regional troops -
which the engine does Sometimes... i want it to do it all the time.
do i edit this in the region files?

descr_mercenaries.txt
in my case;
E:\Medieval II Total War\data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign\descr_mercenaries.txt
in M2 you can do heck of a lot with it, to give you an example I did the opposite of what you want, make the pools very basic and the same in each region but with units specific to each religion.
this is a basic pool;
but when you create a pool per region you can do just what you want, as you can define merc's by date/religion/crusading/event, wich imo only lacks "faction" ... :D

Q: Help? - Less-Generic Mercenaries A: wet Feet!
Thanks!
and thanks; too to Alpaca; who said something rather similar pm.
Its nice to get a good solid answer.. I know it can be frustrating with new folks springing up and asking the same Old Questions;
but especially starting on a new sight; asking a question like that DROWNS you...
Not looking to drown; just get my feet wet.
For Now :)
