    Question

    O.k, so I set out to make a killing machine unit, for the english. Basically in a scale of 1 of him facing 2000 men, hed take at least 900 enemy men with him, o.k so I've done it after a few cock ups and restarting of MTW. After seeing LOTR: The Two Towers for the third time , I named the unit Aragorn. O.k so it works but for some reason it said this.

    Note: I overwrite the Gallowglass unit to make Aragorn

    ( Aragorn_Plural) Cannot_translate


    Or somethin along those lines

    I believe that what Kaastop is saying is that whenever you add a unit you have to edit the names.txt file in the Loc folder to include it. Units must have both singular and plural names. If you don't do this, the unit simply won't appear, but the campaign should be otherwise o.k. However, the error message you report sounds like something else. No idea what.
    Yours was not at first a criminal nature. At 10 you stole sugar,at 15 you stole money,at 25 you committed arson. At 30,hardened in crime,you became an editor. Worse yet is in store for you. You will be sent to Congress,then to the penitentiary. But,all will be well. You will be hanged.

    It will, it just wont have it's name translated that's
    all.


    The game is reading the name from the prod11
    itonly looks to the names file for a onscreen
    translation.If it can't find one it will show this
    translation.

    So if you wanted a unit called
    ( Aragorn_Plural) Cannot_translate
    then that would be ok as it is
