    Default changing size units

    I looked in all the forum, but if i missed it then i am sorry.
    My question is how can you make your units really really huge in medieval 2 total war, I mean beyond 250.
    Can you change all af them in one time like change the multiplier?

    thanks.


    ow and if its not possible can someone give me the maxed out unitsfile. but not that that cavalery is equal with the infantry.

    thanks for your help and sorry for the bad english

    Find the file export_descr_unit.txt in your */data/ folder(after you've unpacked) or the same file in whatever mod you're playing.

    Each unit entry has a line that looks like this:

    soldier Unit_Name, 32, 0, 1

    The number in bold is the base unit number. It has a maximum of 100 which I believe is multiplied by 2.5x on Huge unit settings, creating the 250 maximum you refer to. It isn't possible to increase the modifier amount, so it isn't generally recommended to put all units up against it or you get elite units in the same numbers as fodder units(but to each their own).

    You'll need to change the numbers for whichever units you want to increase the unit size for. You could potentially use regular expressions in an advanced text editor like Notepad++ to replace it in a bunch of entries at once.
