    You need to un-pak the pak files (using Vercingetorix's utility) and grab the unit cards for the Hoplites and Armored Hoplites. They should be called #greek_greek_hoplite.tga and #greek_greek_armoured_hoplite.tga (doing this from memory - I'm not at my RTW computer...).

    Rename them #seleucid_greek_hoplite.tga and #seleucid_greek_armoured_hoplite.tga, then create a folder called data\UI\Units\Seleucid and put them in there. That should do it.

    Ok, that partly fixed the problem, now the hoplite unit cards show up as they should, but I still have one more problem, when I right click on the unit cards to see the description it shows up as peasants still, is there a fix to this?

    The same thing except find the unit graphics at UNITS_INFO folder.
    UNITS folder is for unit cards, UNITS_INFO is for the graphics on the description scroll.

    It's actually UNIT_INFO (singular), that's caught me out more than once I can tell you.

    I´ll second that
    Mind you, you´ll need the # in front of the name for the unit cards (the small ones) but NOT for the info cards, that gave me minor headaches as well.
