    Default Editing custom army descriptions

    Which file do I open to modify the army descriptions for custom battles? I'm using a Ptolemaic Egyptian army now, but the description still refers to chariots. Not exactly crucial, but mildly irritating.

    in the data/text folder open the menu_english folder, and eventually it will have the descriptions you're looking for

    good luck

    Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, changing the text file doesn't have any effect on the description, and I can't find the UI file (even using xpak) - weird!

    Changing that text file works for me. Try copying the line of the relevant faction description and then paste it at the bottom of the file and rewrite it to what you want.

    Nope, still no joy. Like I said, it's not critical, I just wonder why it doesn't work for me.
