    Do you tried to modify your catw exe to run BI ?
    If you have the typical KTM bug or "choose an element from the list", your RTW base installation seems to not be perfectly "virgin". Although catw is modfoldered, your RTW installation needs to be untouched. That's not the case for some mods which are not modfolrered like RS2...

    EDIT- This occured after I copied/pasted the files for the prometheus cities, before that campaign could start

    Sorry for late answer...
    To be true my own version of TW was the very first (2004), so i never tested catw under Gold.
    But if the TW installation is well on 1.5, catw is modfoldered, but not prometheus strat cities (worked for others, but never for me, although i used the same links), which have to be copied and paste over your vanilla installation... If it freezing at the beginning of the campaign loading, its is certainly due to a corrupted 3d file (probably during many uploads/downloads, and multiples copies under hard drives, HDD, and usb keys... Try to find or restore original vanilla strat cities, this could fix the problem. I will try to test them and make a separate installation pack.

    A very old bug, when you move troops out of a city, they can't get out the first turn, they are surrounded by a red circle like if there were enemies near

    Just as you say, a very old one... What causes this (the region is under "slave" control), is that there's obviously a conflit with the campaign files in mundus magnus directory and another one - yet unidentified - file in the main data and probably vanilla data (oustide catw) directory. I found nothing about this in the tutorials.

    Do you have tried to resolve the battle automatically ?

    It seems yes, I long held this city in a siege, and in the end they have surrendered, and the city has become empty. After that it is impossible to come into a city, and capture.

    Ok, i have a clue that it is linked with my generic bug "clt huge city vs min city" which is and refers to the very last line in EDB. I have still not solved it as it refers perhaps to the limit of population in the area : in fact there are three full stack galatian armies and a fourth in the city itself, and because this city would have been a huge one and not a village according to EDB rules.
    The problem is if i respect the rules, you would have very week independant armies everywhere, and to steamroll the map in a few turns...

    Your mod seems most interesting. However after installing as per instructions it will not start. After the load screen I get the message "Failed to read censored word dictionary file catw: data//chatfilter.san" Fortunately my computer is not politically correct and does not have a censored word dictionary!!

    Specs - seven
    TW gold using Alexander 1.9

    I would love to try out your mod if the issue can be resolved.

    The only advice I could give is try to uninstall the mod and RTW, then install RTW and CATW following step by step the instructions. I'm sure in 90% case that kind of error message appear when RTW is not clean or/and the mod isn't well installed. Sometimes a corrupted download could be an explanation. The solution is to download it again.
    I know its not pleasing but for me that's the only way.

    Your missing the alexander file chatfilter.san, copy and paste it from your alexander data folder into catw.

    Thanks for all your help - tried everything, still get the same. Oh well back to EB and RS II

    JES, i don't know were you found that catw was compatible with alex 1.9. It is not the case... It looks for chat_filter.san which is not included in catw subfolder. So it cannot run. I just have re-bought alex to test this. Just wait before an official patch for it. I know alex 1.9 is the best AI (of course not speaking of darth vader addon) so far in the regular "vanilla" RTW serie...
