I didn't, what made you think that I did?

well, I saw some units there that really looked like they've been edited :s plus the unit cards and all... By the way, I don't know if you're aware of that, but you forgot to change the symbol that appears on a empty city. Just a heads up.

They've just been reskinned, unit cards recolored, etc.
And yeah, some of the faction banners will probably be changed in the end so I haven't finalized all of the banner stuff yet, but thanks.

aah. I'm planning to use some Indian units for my mod and thought someone figured out how to open them. It would be nice to be able to do brand new unit cards. I guess I'll do some similar to the ones from m2tw to the indian units.

I have a quick fix for the Greco-Persian Wars Campaign when trying to play as the Greeks and fight battles with Leonidas or Leotychidas:

open up ...PI\data\world\maps\campaign\greek

extract the attached file to your desktop and move the file 'descr_strat.txt' to the greek folder, choosing yes to overwrite the old one

delete map.rwm in that folder

close it up and run the game!

Very nice Mod comrade general.

I encountered a problem playing as Athenians in Greek Hegemony. I had an heir who didn't appear in the family tree, with the result that when my initial ruler died I was told that my faction had been wiped out. The one other named character at startup, other than my faction leader, was automatically being made my heir even though he didn't appear in my family tree.

It was easily fixed by converting this named character into a general in startpos but you mat prefer other solutions.

I have not yet played enough to see if it applies to any other factions - I'm having too much fun as the Macedonians.

I hope other people are finding their way to this Mod. It is really very good and fun, pitting yourself against such a monster empire

Thanks, western! I really appreciate your comments.

I was not aware of that problem, but unfortunately I have long since ceased work on the mod. If anyone else mentions this problem I will be sure to tell them your solution.

Also I was wondering, since you have been playing as Macedonia, have you seen the military reforms occur? I have Macedonia set up to use the old marian reforms which would allow them to recruit their later professional army, but I never did enough testing on them to see if it worked, so I was just curious.

Thanks again, and happy playing.
