How to make Historical Battles

H, I'm new, and I would like to try Dragoncrusader's Historical Battles, but I can't seem to find them. Link, please? Thanks.

It depends on the mod. The battles do not really change anything, they just add a folder to the historical battles one, and perhaps a map. The only conceivable problem is that some mods might have removed units that are called for in the historical battles in question, in order to make room for new ones, but that would most likely affect the existing historical batttles as well.

Try them, and if they do not run properly delete them. If they do not work, they will simply fail to load, and will not jeopardise any other part of the game or the mod, so there is no real risk as far as I am aware.

I'm interested in trying this. I don't have Note Tab though (tried opening the bif with Note Pad and got a bunch of symbols). Is the free download version of Note Tab I see offered OK to use for this or do I have to buy the new version?

Thanks

You can open the ADF and BDF files with notepad, but for the BIF files, you need a separate utility:

(10) Use the CA BIF/BUF utility (downloadable at the org) Purpgrab to
convert this to a BIF.
