Casse Generals As Infantry

[Bert Preast]

BELAY THAT!

Check the date on Watchman's solution - it's pre EB 1.2.

I was wanting to do the same thing, and found the attachment in this post by Rovert works just dandy:

If you want infantry rather than cavalry bodyguards, then Watchman gives the 1.2 way to do it here:

Quick question, hopefully. I changed my generals unit just fine (to druids) and I want them to use an axe instead of a sword. I replaced the stat_pri line with this: 9, 8, no, 0, 0, melee, simple, slashing, axe, 0 ,0.220

But they still have swords. Any ideas?

Well I guess you have to change the model...?

Thank you. I think I'd stick to the cav, bacause casse lacks some good cav and imho its a more appropriate replacement for chariots.
BTW: Are the BGs in the new edu upkeep free?

Not that I understand much about modding, but I'd like to understand more. Rovert's entry looks like this:

Why would the game put celtic heavy cav as casse BGs?

Yep, looks that way.
