EDU - edit_descr_unit
EDB - edit_descr_building

Is that correct?

There was another one, but I can't remember it now. I'll post it when I do :)

Hi again I Am Herenow,
Almost! I, think, sorry, I may be wrong as I'm not a modder, that it stands for the files in M2:TW and R:TW installations know as export_descr_units (EDU) and export_descr_buildings (EDB). They both determine what the building's and unit statistics are within the two games and can be modded easily and at will. Hope this helps, cheers!

Heavy Billmen = HB
Dismounted English Knights = DEK

Mailed Knights = MK
English Knights = EK
Bodyguard = BG
Knights Templar = KT
Knights Hospitaller= KH
Arqbusiers = Arqs
Chivalric Knights = CK
Dismounted Chivalric Knights = DCK

etc... etc... I will post a complete list in a few hours (need to do some work!). The most frequently used ones are the (not surprisingly) the knight abbreviations.

[I Am Herenow]

Sherwood Archers = SA (mine is SS = Sherwood Snipers)

Thanks for the info, but aren't SA and SS slightly unfortunate choices of abbreviation, if you don't mind me saying so?

[Shahed]

I don't think so, why ?

SS as in WW2 SS you mean ? I did'nt think of that, if that's what you are thinking.

SA as in .... ? South Africa ? BEEEAUTIIIFUULLL (is how the Xhosa pronounce it) country, sad past. Can't think of any other SA abbreviations at the moment. Or are they other units which have the same abbreviations ?

Show me the light !

[Warmaster Horus]

SA was Hitler's police pre 1939 (or somewhere before that) and afterwards it was the SS.
But basically they were Germany's government's secret police.

[I Am Herenow]

Never mind - I've found another one that's confusing me: EDB. Could anyone help?

[Shahed]

Ahh yes I remember... doh ! the SturmAbteilung. Thanks for the reminder, I forgot about that.

Well SA is also Sexaholics Anonymous.

[I Am Herenow]

Oh, wait, scratch that - I just did it lol

I'm so stupid sometimes

[I Am Herenow]

Yeah, thanks lol - forgot I'd asked that one already

[Caerfanan]

What foul word is that? I don't get it...

Ahem... that's a four letter words whitch usage is strictly forbidden. I geuss that France or French are used to give a hint on abusive language instead, as in "Excuse my french", etc...

WTF means something like "What?? Oh my, but how??? Are you kidding??? Oh nooo!!!"
