    We have no historic battle modder at hand.

    A while back, I went through the historic battles, using the battle editor and by trying to understand the txt files themselves. What I found is that a couple of battles I could still alter in order to allow them to function, but most just refused to load up. The main reason being that so much has changed in the mod since they were made... though I cannot be sure that most of them worked beforehand either.

    Anyway though, most would probably require at least some basic scripting (and thus lots of testing) in order for them to work like the actual battles rather than just an imitation of the starting positions of both sides. And besides not having someone familiar with making custom/historic battles, we don't have a scripter either.

    Drak, the second paragraph is only to a certain extention correct. The reason why the historic battles weren't touched anymore after the 0.50 major relaunch, which changed that much, as Drak mentioned, is rather that there wasn't enough interest within the community but especially not in the dev team, respectively me, to play/playtest historic battles. And nowadays, i have simply still not the time nor just the interest to fix/playtest the historic battles part, as i'm just a campaign-developer. But if i ever wil be bored, i'll fix the historic battles, too./DV
