    Default Getting spartan units with other factions

    I'm playin as the Seleucids and though i can easily take on the Spartans with my cavalry and pikemen, i'm impressed by their resillience.

    Is there any way i can mod or download a mod that allows me to get spartans into my army? (Without having to restart my campaign and playing as Greek).

    create unit via console is probably easier than tinkering with game files and all that stuff.

    greek hoplite spartan 5 9 9 9 is the one to create.

    As long as you aren't going to include a seperate unit card you'd be better using the console-command.

    Why? - because you wouldn't have to mess up your RTW and the result would be almost the same apartof with the editing version you could recruit them in your settlements.

    Damn I forgot about the unit card thing.. I reversed everything and my vanilla has since stopped crashing.

    Well it seems though i was unable to get spartans in my army, i was able to turn my silver shield pikemen spartan-like by editing some of the .txt files. Thanks for all your suggestions and help guys!

    Remember not to take modded armies to the multiplayer. Such heresy is not acceptable.

    No, that's with proper mods, the modded armies Max talked about is where units are changed or included (ie. Spartans, Urban Cohorts, and Cataphracts in the same army).

    ah, i see what u mean, so not changing the unit's stats, but changing what units each faction can have.

    You can also change stats, I think. Changing the unit stats file changes the said stat in campaign and in custom battle. (tried it just now.) Should be the same for multiplayer right? So you can have unbreakable super-elite eastern inf that can hold off waves of urbans if you wanted to. Totally unfair.

    I think this sentence of the OP should say everything to indicate that nobody is talking about multiplayer here anyways - though i do understand
    Max in his worries but i think if one wants to use modded armies in Multiplayer he would not bother about Max' posts anyway.

    However there is still the option left, not to play a person anymore if he did use modded armies imho.
    Those ppl using modified armies do exist but most of them you can identify by the language they are
    speaking in.

    Doing so you would only take yourself down to their level and you would only waste
    your own time for have fun with serious players at the end.
