Never mind, think I got 7zip working.

edit: I just finished a epic battle against a horde of rebels, took a screen shot of my heroic victory and then realized I had anti aliasing on. I know that normally not having screenshot takes one of my BP but I then saw that I had the crossed swords of a famous battle, do I still only get 2?

I think you'll still only get two, since I think we came to understand before that famous battles aren't necessarily heroic victories, and can thus not be used as evidence for such.

In any case, who is the adopter for the MotH offer? It's important, because it's he who decides whether to accept or not. (You check by accepting without saving afterwards, and looking up the MotH on the family tree.)

really? I always assumed only heroic victories [or crushing defeats] could become a famous battle.

Arrhenides Gedrosianos is the adopter [celtic punk].

That's what you'd think, but someone else said here that 'twas not so.

By the by, a good program you can use to take screenshots with and still have AA on is fraps. Free and legal from http://www.fraps.com.

thats wierd, does anyone one know what does affect the creation of a famous battle marker then?

I think winners are more likely to get victor type traits, though this could be that in SP the generals that win famous battles for me are normally the ones that fight the most battles, also, in M2, if a general loses one and survives, he's supposed to get a "hates the -your faction-" trait, though that could just be SS6.1 awersomeness showing itself again.

when its all considered, the "oh yea, good battle memories" is a good enough reason to keep them in
