Armored Eastern Generals

Just double click it to run it. It should find your RTW folder automatically.

When you play Custom Battles, you will see that all factions have both the regular General and the Armoured version as separate units. You can use either (or both).

Really? I must not have the latest patch then because when I go into custom battles, only the armored versions of bodyguards are available. For the roman and eastern factions anyway, I saw the Carthaginian bodyguard unit wasn't armored and I'm not sure how all the other factions are.

Mouse over the unit cards next to them to make sure you are just not missing them. They should be there.

Yeah, I checked that for a couple different factions. Still just the armored version. I've only done this for single player custom battles and not multiplayer ones, does that make a difference at all?

Your mod looks pretty sweet btw, SubRosa

Thank you Matt.

It should not make any difference at all between custom battles and multiplayer. They are basically the same thing, except that the latter has a human opponent and the first an AI one.

Take a look in your RTW\Data\Export_Descr_Unit.txt file. Do a search on east_generals_cavalry

You should get this entry:

That is the Eastern Armoured General.

Thanks, I'll sneak a peek tomorrow.

Yeah, so I checked all that info and mine doesn't say "Armored Eastern General" anywhere. It just says "Eastern General" and has all of the typical stats for an Eastern General. Oh well, I must not have the right patch or something.
