Thanks for a wonderfull guide.
But I wonder, where can you change the stats of officers, generals, etc.? Is there a similar .txt file for them?

Thx

Thx. You cannot change the stats of officers/generals etc at all.

[MastodontfilmsMats]

Ok. But what determines their stats? The game has to know how good they are, and they seem to be better than the normal soldiers in the unit.

[Aradan]

It must be hardcoded. The game does store that info somewhere, but it is not accessible or moddable by us. I've read somewhere that officers have 2hps and generals have 7, but it's impossible to test-prove it.

A minor point, and apologies if its already been mentioned, but using "thrown" for 'stat_pri_attr' means that a javelin icon is displayed when targeting during a battle.

Maybe that implies that it was intended for javelin troops, not archers ?

[Aradan]

That's actually a side-effect, but yes the original use must have been for javelin troops, probably instead of giving them bonuses vs elephants and large animals anyway.
