all factions in bi

[Antiochius]

several mods can do this

[fireblade]

and where can i find one of these mods?

[Zomby_Woof]

Easier yet go to:

C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\bi\data\world\maps\campaign\barbarian_invasion

Modify the file called descr_strat. From here you can move the various factions from unplayable, playable, and unlockable categories. Make sure you don't list them under more than one.

Rebel factions (Slavs, Romano-British, WR Rebels, etc.) remain unplayable unless you use a mod like Slave Commander.

[Antiochius]

oh, so it is much easier

[TinCow]

You need a mod for most factions actually since several of the ones that start on the map do not have a campaign description or a campaign map. If you don't add these in, the game will CTD when you click on their campaign icon.

I modified the file, but did not add descriptions or maps and yet am able to play without crashing to desktop. I have seen others report the same instance. Not sure why some CTD without the decription and others do not.
