Hi all

Ah I think I know your problem. You have Vista right? Vista always creates modding problems. So this is how you must do it make it work:

1. Go to C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\Data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign
2. Open descr_strat.txt
3. Cut and paste the unlockable and unplayable factions in the playable list.
4. Click save as and call it "descr_strat1" or something different like that, but save it in the same folder.
5. Delete the original "descr_strat", then rename the edited "descr_strat1" to "descr_strat.txt"

Then it should work.

always make a back up and remember to remove the read only attribute on the file.
