ALtering factions start cities

I've managed to give myself Angiers and Naples and Palermo. The game loads OK and Siciliy immediately becomes a destroyed faction. However, I cannot then move troops in to Angiers or Palermo as I simply get the 'Cannot be done, Sir' response. I can do everything else within the city, though, so they do actually belong to me.

In Naples I changed the starting co-ordinates for a family member so they begin in the city and I don't get this problem unit movement problem (they can enter and exit). Can anyone explain why this might be or give me the map co-ordinates for Angiers and Palermo so I can move troops there from the outset?

You have to remove Sicily from descr_strat proper.
Delete all their armies and give them the "spawned_on_event" line like it's done with the Mongols. That should solve your problem.
