    2) You cannot start two campaigns with two different factions (either new or loading a savegame) in one game session. If you have started a campaign with faction x and wish to exit that and load a savegame of a campaign with faction y you must first quit RTW and start it up again.

    3) Traits are not harder or easier to get. However, the trait system is thoroughly different. You will find that command stars, for instance, are more rare. But your characters will have plenty more traits than in vanilla.

    Having problems getting EB2 to run? Try these solutions.

    Bad things. Essentially the script will start in your campaign as faction y as if you were faction x. That will mean governments will be destroyed and basically all sorts of bad things.

    hmmm ive never gotten anything like that but ill make sure to exit now then... can you quit the campaign, go to main menu and load through there?

    1) alex.exe is the Alexander Expansion, its got better AI and alot more naval invasions than RTW.exe, but less than BI, however the invasions will be more thought out and instead of having 3 regiments, it will be a proper full force invasion.

    No you literally need to exit RTW completely.
