Re: Micromanaging armies and commanders
And if I were getting basically free troops (Son of Niefel winter wolves, Ermor undead masses, Mictlan slaves, "random event" militia) I might stick them way upfront to soak up the early missiles, spells, and lance attacks.
"Ave Caesar! Morituri te salutant!", shout those stuck in front.

Re: Micromanaging armies and commanders
Can you explain how that works? i try to edit the .map file but since computers are extremely un-cool, it downloads and opens as a text file except it adds a bunch of: (weird square things which don't seem to appear when pasted here)
and also makes it one long line of text. There is no spacing whatsoever when I download it. Could you change that extension to maybe .txt? maybe my computer wont download and do some ecrypting crap.

Re: Micromanaging armies and commanders
Actually all the map files are that way. Its a unix text file instead of a dos one. The best thing is to open it using WordPad instead of Notepad if you have windows. Resave it as a dos text file if you want to.
As to editing it... You need to get the AllView game from the SunRay site to get the numbers for the units. I just added a couple of armies to 2 provinces but you can add as many armies as you want.

Re: Micromanaging armies and commanders
This website is pretty cool, but where is the list of units and their code number thing?
