Wars of Men deletes all my saved games any time I restart
I've been playing the faction-specific campaigns (primarily Reunited Kingdom) from Wars of Men, but every time that I exit the game, it deletes all of my saved games. This does not happen when I play the "standard" campaign with all factions available, my saves work perfectly fine there. I doubt it would make a difference, but I have RTW installed in a directory that is not the default- F:\Rome. Why are my saves getting deleted? Is there a way to fix this, or manually recover them?
Update: There is a tedious workaround for this. If I save the game, then alt tab, and make a copy of the save elsewhere, then restart the game, and put the copy back in the save folder, I can get it to work. Still am trying to figure out why it's deleting my saves in the first place, though.

If you make a "Saves" folder in the RK folder (or whichever), it will hold them, also. If that isn't working, I don't know what's up with it.

Can you tell me the full path for that folder? I'm not sure where to find it...

For me: C:/Program Files/Activision/Rome - Total War/bi/ci/Batch/RK
The bold text is the important part.
If there isn't a folder with the name of "Saves" there by default, add it. That will fix the problem, in my experience.
RK saves will not be available when playing one of the other campaign options, obviously, but this is how it should work (as part of how the game runs)

The batch does not delete your saves, it moves them to the appropriate faction-specific folder, in order to help you not try to load a save-game with a wrong campaign. I have attached a file HERE for those that have this problem. Read the post as well.
