how can i create a unit of 1 soldier only?

[Bardo]

I have posted some info in the complete edu guide related to this topic. I'm sory I didn't see this thread before:

the number of soldiers is based on the number of riders.

If you put 12 invisible riders per mount, and make the unit size 6, then even on large unit sizes the 1 mount will be 1 unit I believe.

I'm afraid it is not than simple, but something similar is possible. The number of riders acts as a maximum of crew for a certain mount, but it does not define the number of soldiers per mount. It is the EDU entry soldiers/extras, I think.
If you make the unit size 6 and the number of riders 12, it will appear 12 soldiers with 2 mounts on large settings, and 24 soldiers with 4 mounts on huge. I have tryed it for long time until I have found the effect of the attribute general_unit over the minimum soldiers of a unit.

Note: sorry for talking about the same issue on several threads, but I have found it interesting enough to redirect all them to my answer.
