Accidentally deleted units.

[fritsje5]

Hi there, sorry to bother you guys with this, but this is a problem I need fixed fast, my emperor's life depends on it. When I was about to reinforce him with three units of cavalry from Sofia, I wanted to quicksave first, but I already had the units selected. I accidentally pressed ctrl+d instead of ctrl+s, and three units were lost. I tried loading the quicksave but they were already gone, so here I am:

how do I create the units Skythikon, Byzantine Lancers and Byzantine Cavalry in my castle of Sofia?

thanks in advance

create_unit "Settlementname/charactername" "Unit"
In your case that will be:
create_unit "Sofia" "unit" (you should use `~ to open console)
I can't look up the excact unit names for you (I play RR/RC) but somebody with your version (6.1/6.2?) might give you the right names. You can also try random names, most likely it is just "Byzantine Cavalry" or something similar.

If you want them without any armour, weapon and experience upgrades, just open the console:

To enter cheats, first open the console by hitting the ~ key, or the @ key on some keyboards, or the ò key on italian keyboards, the ù key on the French keyboard, or the ñ key on Spanish keyboards, or the ö key on German keyboards. Then you can enter any of the cheats listed in the sections below.

...and then type in

a) create_unit Sofia "Skythikon" 1 0 0 0
This creates one unit of Skythikon in Sofia with each upgrade on level 0. If you want 2 units, just change that number.

b) create_unit Sofia "Byzantine Lancers" 1 0 0 0

c) create_unit Sofia "Byzantine Cavalry" 1 0 0 0

Hope this helped ,

are you sure those are the correct unit names? I think I've tried those and they didnt work, but ill try again, thanks anyway. Ill +rep you if it works ;-)

Edit: worked a charm, thanks a lot. It seems I put the quotation marks in the wrong places when I first tried.
