    Icon5 Changing Unit Size - During a Campaign

    Is there anyway to change the unit size of a campaign already started? The huge battles can be fun, but they just take too long most of the time.

    dont beleive so, i highly doubt it unless you edit the entire edu and change all unit sizes. there is a mass convertor around that could prolly do it for you but i couldnt get it to work for myself.
    but for all i know you may need to start a new campaign for it to work.

    you could also edit the morale or something so that the AI armies flee quicker, that could help speed up the battle without having to change all the units size-values.

    Naa, I want to keep it as hard as possible. Plus, I think I am doing half decent on this campaign any way. Thank you though. I just can't restart this campaign ;p

    It's impossible to change unit size in an ongoing campaign.

    There is a tool out there (Med manager) that does that and more, search for it in the released mods section.

    I think I tried it back in the day. It ******** and ****** (and I mean a real ********) my save. Wonder if it's more useful now.

    Mine worked fine, although I can't use it since the latest release. My PC's setup is in Dutch. And Med Manager only seems to work with an English localization of XP.

    Anyway, I play on Huge for a longer while already and don't plan ever switching from it...

    Ah, well thank you for the information. I may just try and get used to huge sized armies. It just feels so different from what I had it on.

    It's not that I really want them to be shorter. It's just that whenever I had the unit size smaller I was able to make more game breaking decisions. With a huge unit size it just turns into a giant mass of swords and spears and you can't do nearly as much when it comes to positioning those types of armies. Even more so whenever it's a seige. I think I am going to have to restart this campaign .

    I don't know about vista, what I meant to say is that it only worked with the English version of XP. Give it a try I'd say.
