i can't find the name of the song, but the composer is Vlad Kuryluk and it is not included in RTR, but in Marcus Camillus music remix mod 1.1.
Is there a way to put the song in EB? I figured I could just replace the other song with this one under the same name but, the regular victory song and the heroic are the same. I guess It would change both, which I don't want.
What is that?Quote:

I think he is talking about the vanilla RTW credits song. It is called "Forever" and performed by Angela Van Dyc, wife of Jeff Van Dyck, the person behind RTW music(and MiNO too, unless I am mistaken).Quote:

it is just called 'Win' and it was made by the RTR team and Vlad Kuryluk
Third edit - i found a way to listen to it. I know it may sound a little over the top, but that IS the whole idea :laugh4: http://www.last.fm/music/Vlad+Kurylu...tory?autostart
Hey, I got a "Famous Battle" mark for a Close Victory near Pella in 205 BC.... well in my KH campaign against Makedon... I siege their Pella, when suddenly 2 makedonian stack springs out of and attack me.... notice that I was using Alex EB, and I built spartan agoge when available... so I get much Spartans
My Units:
Somatophylakes Strategou, x 1
Hippeis Xyxtophoroi x 2
Hippakontistai x 2
Akontistai x 2
Sphendonetai x 3
Spartiates Hoplitai x 10
Enemy units:
First Army (that one who attack me...)
Somatophylakes Strategou(mounted), x 1
Pezhetairoi x 4
Thraikioi Prodromoi x 3
Hetairoi Aspidophoroi x 1
Hetairoi x 1
Peltastai x 3
Second Army (filled up with trash units)
Hoplitai Haploi x 8
Akontistai x 4
Thraikioi Prodromoi x 2
Toxotai x 1
Hippakontistai x 3
Third Army (from Pella, they are still at full strength because I only siege them in one turn)
Somatophylakes Strategou(mounted), x 1
Pezhetairoi x 7
At first, I create two line of Spartans, with my bodyguards stand in the center, formed a one line, 4 men deep, put my slingers in front of them, and my xyxtophoroi in right flank... I place Hippakontistai far in left flank...
First, the attacking makedonian army sent their hetairoi aspidophoroi to skirmish my line... in my right flank, I know this was a tactical error (I suspect they would come from the left), and I charge them with one of my hippeis xyxtophoroi... and they fight for some time before their general charge my horsemen...... I sent the other xyxtophoroi, but I forgot to look that their pezhetairoi was closing in... and both xyxtophoroi routs, and massacred... And their general heroically (ugh), charge my right side spartans..... along with Hetairoi, and nearly all their cavalry.... My spartans resist them, and I sent 3 other spartans to help them... their Hetairoi Aspidophoroi Routs and their general fell.... and their cavalry was massacred....
But their Pezhetairoi, still stubbornly march into my right spartans... and sucessfully pin my Spartans down... while their Peltastai does surprisingly wonderful killing with their javelins and their swords... (If I don't know the ai stupidity in other section of this battle, I will suppose that the Generals was really sacrificing himself for the rest of their army!!!). The Second Army's cavalry then charge my right's back, and routing 2 of my Spartans in the Process. In the same time, my skirmishers was engaged the Third army line.... so they can't help... I sent my general, and two other Spartans to relieve this situation, but they simply capable to hold their upper hand, even as one of my spartans sucessfully stab them in their back, they simply don't rout!... both side was losing sooo manyyy soldiers..... and I decide to sent all the Spartans... while they sent all their hoplitai... It was a complete chaos in the right side...
While in the left, my skirmishers is running out of ammo, and (their skirmish mode is still on! thankfully) just running arround dodging (but luckily also exhausting, enemy pezhetairoi). And miracle (or in more explicit form, ai stupidity) comes... their general charge in the thickest of my spartan mobs.... If I use cheaper Hoplitai, It will become certain doom for me, but luckily, they are spartans... and He was owned!!! after that, their mobs break away (both side has lost their initial formations and fight as mobs with weapons).... They then charge their toxotai (hopeless eh?), Hippakontistai, and everything.... they sucessfully rout some of my Spartans!!! but my general survived the riot, and blow that damn useful horn... Tot tet tot teeet..... so my spartans back, and kick their enemy again. My enemy are finally routs and massacred....
After that, my heavily depleted, and exhausted spartans, reassemble their formations, and I order my Skirmishers to fall back behind them.... The enemy pezhetaroi then march towards my spartans in a line, but I simply run my spartans in their left flank, while let them killing my skirmishers, and I soon watch them routs away.....
I won a close victory, I kill 1325 men, but lost my entire Xyxtophoroi, and many spartans (alongside with most of my akontistai).... (total 952 men)... I capture Pella then, and got a site of Famous battle here...
Copy the sound file to the folder containing the EB music (remember to look under [RTW/EB/Data] and not [RTW/Data]), and edit the file called descr_music.txt or something like it. The file is easy to understand, so it should be very simple.Quote:

- The battle has to be a Heroic Victory for one side OR a close victory, in which both sides lost at least 85% of their soldiers.
- Extraordinarily many men fought in this battle (at least 10'000 men alltogether)
- Special case: If the faction leader of one side OR at least 3 FM of one side die in this battle, at least 2'000 men have fought on both sides together, it can be a clear victory or an avarage one, and still get a site of a famous battle - marker
- The markers never disappear, since even today we remember great battles of ancient times, why should they forget them.
- In a radius of 3 Coordinates around a site of a famous battle, the faction who once had won this famous battle will get a morale-bonus if fightig at or near the same spot where their ancestors had achieved a great victory.
Nah, at least 50% loss for the winning side would be enough imho.Quote:
