    Default How hard would this be?

    I played Britannia a LOT, let me get this straight, and my favorite faction was without doubt, Norway. I liked playing as the vicious Nordic faction. I was messing around with the custom battle function, I played as the Holy Roman Empire, and I really like a few of their Zweihander Units. I'm not sure if the Danes have anything like this, because they don't appear on the custom battle roster, but I'd want to know what files I'd have to edit in order to add this units to the Dane's Tech Tree.

    I tried doing the same with Rome and ultimately failed, I tried giving the Germans some Gaulish unit, and I'd like to try this again.

    This would be a answer that it would interest me too. But so far no luck

    In Rome there were a few files in the Data folder, model_unit_desc or something like that, but they don't match in Medieval.

    1. you need to add the faction to the units ownership lines in export_descr_unit(so the unit belongs to the faction)
    2. you need to add the faction to the units recruit pool in export_descr_buildings. (so the unit is recruitable for the faction)
    3. you need to add an enty for the faction in the units modeldb section. (so the unit has a textutre for the faction)

    there are plenty of tutorials relating to adding a unit to a faction in the mod workshop (actually its more like adding a faction to a unit than the other way around)
