    Yeah it is possible to mod in this unit capability. Here is a brief illustration:

    Vanilla RTW shieldwall ?

    You'll need to make use of the mod: switch command in order to direct the game to make use of BI's files.

    I'd tried to do this myself a while back, but since custom / historical battles became corrupted after using the mod: switch ability, I had no direct way of testing if the results worked correctly.


    Currently developing Rome: Total Gameplay (RTG), an unofficial mod for vanilla Rome: Total War v1.5

    Features: improved battles, new units to recruit, more buildings to construct, a modified campaign map, and much more!

    No you cant prometheus, Its located in the .exe so its hardcoded. so you would have to use the BI.exe which is not what you wanted to do.

    I recommend changing the Loose formation for the romans, since they never used that anyway like the game does. I changed it to a very tight formation and then let the player thin out the ranks to 2 ranks deep. Change the sounds for the romans to say Shield wall and violla its a shield wall and works well too. Also make sure the player leaves them on Guardmode. lol

    Hows things coming with your mods, I know your working on several. ;-)

    Some mods, such as Chivalry, however, are able to be run through both the RTW and the BI.exe with little difficulty. In such an instance then presumably the shield wall could be used?
