No I haven't. Can you give me a link?
And by the way, no the game dosn't normally crash while loading battles in campaign mode, but the campaign mode eventually allways crashes after some hours of play. Maybe this problem can be fixed as well?

What exactly does the trivial script do? If it has already been mentioned may I have a link to where it explains its function?

"Do you know what's worth fighting for?
When it's not worth dying for?"
I have a few questions, and I didn't feel like starting a new thread.
First, I was wondering if anyone could post the stats for all of the late/ elite Cataphracts? I'm looking for the following ones:
Grivpanvar (Parthian Late Armored Elite Cataphracts)
Sahigan Pahr (Parthian Late Bodyguards)
Ysaninu Aysiramj� (Saka Cataphracts)
Sahiya Hadabara (Saka Late Cataphract)
and the Hetairoi Kataphraktoi
I'm somewhat obsessed with comparing the unit's stats, and I want to know how all of these compare.
I want to know this because I want to start a campiagn as an eastern faction, but want to see how the late units compare.
Also I had one other question.
To get the Hellenikoi Kataphraktoi (Hellenic Cataphracts), the AS has to get the reform, by losing some big battles to Parthia, or the Bactrians. Bactria also has access to this unit, but I don't know how they get it. Is it available without reforms? Is it tied to the AS getting their reform, and only after they get it, does Bactria get it? If that is the case, can I simply just beat the AS in some large battles to encourage the reforms? Or, is there some sort of reform that Bactria has to perform to get them?
I want to know this in case I end up playing as Bactria.
Oh and one more, are the Hetairoi Kataphraktoi the Bactrian late bodyguard, or are they a trainable unit? And if they are the bodyguards, are they still trainable from the MIC?
p.s. Any screenshots of those units i mentioned would be awesome, I'd like to see what they actually look like on the battlefield!

Why not post a new thread instead of replying to a random one? Anyway, use the Unit Documentation to compare units.

where can i find that, the unit documentation?
Question. How does one become a member, and what are the benefits?
<your RTW folder>/extras/eb_documentation.exe, if I'm not mistaken.
If you want to apply, MarcusAureliusAntoninus is the man to PM. There are several other routes to become a member.Originally Posted by Che Roriniho
* Be a skilled modeler or skinner. We need all these we can get and very many have joined in short order.
* Be a skilled scripter, traiter or programmer. These are not in such a high demand at this time.
* Be creative and start an unofficial mod project. If members notice that you are skilled in some area and we need people there, you are likely to be contacted.
* Start a project to make some sort of documentation for EB. JMRC and Arkatreides joined this way, with their building trees and unit cards, respectively.
* Find a solution to some CTD that has been haunting us. We're running out of these, but I joined this way. I'm sure there will be some more instability come EB2.
* Become a beta tester. We pay a lot more attention to people doing beta testing for us and many become members at the end of a beta testing run. Then again, it's unlikely that we will need many for a while. Also to become a beta tester you will need to build a decent reputation by being around the forum and behaving well to gain our confidence, making this possibly the longest path.
* Be a knowledgeable historian and prove your knowledge in discussion.
For all paths, don't be abrasive or you'll cause some existing member to veto your admittance. Unfortunately, we have had several potential recruits that obviously know their stuff but couldn't be made members. We value team stability very highly as people leaving in a huff has proven extremely damaging and destroyed productivity for weeks and months.

I hope is the right place to post it.
I play with AS and I know that you can recruit Katphraktoi after losing two large battles to factions having Kataphracts already.
Now I am around 210 BC and I recreate the Antiochos III campaign in Eastern provinces, I have already biiten hard Pahlava, I tried to get Kataphraktoi by recruiting a poor army (Pantodapoi, a mercenary Pezetairoi unit, some archers, archers/spearmen about 15 units) with an Uncharismatic general who moved and sieged Hecatompylos, a Parthian army arrived and attacked me (they have more than a full stack army in total), my army toatlly destroyed and general get killed.
After few turns I send another weak army to Hecatompylos, with general, this time a bit stronger one 17 units of a bit better troops, finally I ended waiting until Hecatompuylos surrender, I marched them to Asaak, where I get attcked by Phlavans in forest on the way to city, they have almost all remaing forces available(they have only Asaak and the north town in steppe) almost 13-14 units , I played really shitty just to lose battle, the general get killed again and waited for next turn to get my heavy Kataphraktoi but nothing happened...I did something wrong?
Is needed larger battles?Generals must be resqued?I don't know, can you help me?Also is there any way to force reforms in my current campaign other than the well known?
thanx in advance...
Um, killing your generals doesn't allow them to go "ooh, those lovely shiny horsemen in armour look cool!". You need to lose, but your general needs to be around to see it.

Basically, two of your generals need to get the "Intrigued by Cataphracts" trait. They get this by fighting an army of Pahlava, Armenia or Baktria (but not Saka?) and losing the battle as well as a large percentage of their bodyguard. Unfortunately,the engine cannot detect the presence or absence of cataphracts on the battlefield, so all that is required for the enemy armies is that they consist of 60% cavalry, of any kind.
Looking for a good read? Visit the Library!
Isn't it possible to just go to the export_desc_unit and modify the recruitment? That's much easier. However, it is not save-game compatible, isn't it?
Thanx a lot for help! I will try to lose without the death of my generals, a weak army will work I think.
When you mean large battle do you mean more than 10 units for both armies? Are there any special traits that the character must have before,just to take the "intrigued by Cataphracts" trait?
Do I must have script activited to play EB . When I play EB without a script a turn take 10 seconds but when I ACTIVATE the script the turn is from 1,2 or even 4 minutes . Can someone help me with this ? And the second question do I have fight with Carthaginians to gain Marian reform ? Thanks for the help . Have a nice day
Yes you must have the script activated to play EB.
The full requirements for all reforms are on the first page of this thread. If it doesn't say you must fight the carthaginians you do not have to fight the carthaginians.

but you don't understand with the script I have to wait 3 to 4 minutes to end turn that is a lot of time man . Can I somehow lower this time ? I am very IMPATIENT. 10 turns take 30-40 minutes I don't want to waste so much time . But to gain Polybian or Markus reforms do I have to have script on all the time or in some year for example 100 BC or something like that . Thanks for the help really . Have a nice day
