Changing the stats for the Carthage Sacred Band

[Brave Brave Sir Robin]

Sorry to be such a noob but could some one post how I would mod there stats... Thanks guys :-)

Go into your EB folder and look for export_descr_unit.txt folder. There is one in your sp edu backup folder as well as the one in your general eb folder. If I mod anything, I always do it in both, but apparently as long as you just do it in the backup folder it will work. The units are listed according to their native names so it may take a few minutes to figure out which entry equates which unit. Sometimes it helps to look at model names. It is a large folder but units are listed by their "culture" alphabetically so Carthaginian units are near the top. As far as what the numbers/words mean in each entry, at the very top of the document there is a key which should help you figure it out. Make your desired changes, save, and load up EB. If their stats are different, congragulations, you are a modder!

Incidentally if you want to keep the stat changes in line with the overall statting scheme, replacing a xiphos with a kopis/falcata makes for an one-point drop in the attack value and lethality drop to 0.11...

On a different note, this topic - hardly the first time this issue comes up when it comes to elite units - rather makes me suspect the AP ability is a wee bit too powerful overall.

I´m curious: does the AI recognize the AP bonus given to a unit? I wonder, because after i´ve reduced the soldiers number in a Pedites Ordinary unit to 30 on default, Romans still love to crank them out as soon as they have built the needed barrack tier in their cities. Because stats wise they are even inferior to Camilian Princeps. On the other hand, the halved Triari unit now appears in adequat numbers in their armies. Perhaps reducing PO to 20 units would stop that spam....
