Thanks very much for the suggestions. I finally figured out what Show-err is and how to use it, and was able to figure out my problem as a result. Apparently with vanilla RTW only installed, you can use Romans Jullii as a faction name in the EDU file. With BI installed, it has to be Romans_Julii instead. After I changed all instances of Romans Julii the modded files worked fine. Very minor difference, but it sure caused me alot of headaches. Thanks again for the helpful suggestions!!
