Becouse I dont have the faintest idea of how to

It's easy!

You can download the simulator and add the data to the .txt files, OR -

Post the data to this forum, and I'll add it to the simulator's data files for you and rerun it. Here's the format:

name=Ulm_Guardian hp=14 mrl=14 mrst=9 bEnc=3 str=12 att=12 def=10 prec=10 ap=12 gold=10 res=0
name=Ulm_Inf hp=12 mrl=10 mrst=9 bEnc=3 str=10 att=10 def=10 prec=10 ap=12 gold=10 res=0
name=Ulm_Master_Smith hp=10 mrl=13 mrst=14 bEnc=5 str=11 att=10 def=10 prec=10 ap=12 gold=140 res=0 earthmagic=2 firemagic=1


Those are the stats for the BASE CREATURE. So just go through each Arco unit, and post its base stats, before armor modifications. Just name them, for example, AR_Hoplite.

Then, specify their equipment, like this:

name=Ulm_Guardian creature=Ulm_Guardian weapon=Halberd item=Full_Plate_of_Ulm item=Full_Helmet
name=Ulm_Inf_Battleaxe_1 creature=Ulm_Inf weapon=Battleaxe item=Full_Chain_Mail item=Helmet
name=Ulm_Inf_Battleaxe_2 creature=Ulm_Inf weapon=Battleaxe item=Full_Plate_of_Ulm item=Full_Helmet
name=Ulm_Inf_Flail_1 creature=Ulm_Inf weapon=Flail item=Full_Chain_Mail item=Helmet
name=Ulm_Master_Smith creature=Ulm_Master_Smith weapon=Maul item=Ring_Mail_Hauberk

Essentially, you specify a base creature, then a unit, which combines a base creature an some equipment.

Does that make sense? Don't worry about making any mistakes; I'll correct them=)

Note: bEnc means "base encumbrance", mrst is "magic resistance", ap is base tactical movement, mrl is "morale", and the order is irrelevant - you can put stats in any order.

Alright, I'll try a few units and post them here. Then perhaps you can check them and see if I do it right

Saber Cherry, what about research and spells? Did you take that into account when doing the simulation?

No. Only melee. But even within melee, a few quasi-melee things are not modeled, like trampling, auras, and area-of-effect weapons like Wail.

Is this right?

Ooops - ALMOST perfect=)

The AP to use is the base AP. So the Arco light infantry has a base AP of 12, not 11, and etc... you have to click on it to see. And Hoplite defense is 11.

Also, if you add the mounted creatures, put in "mounted=3" in the creature specification. Elephants, btw, are not considered mounted, but Chariots are. The "3" is because being mounted gives you +3 defense.

Sacred creatures get "sacred=1".
