Changing Elephant Hitpoints

[dibbles]

Those armored elephants are indestructible!

I realise this will be fixed in the next patch but I am really enjoying my current campaign and am about to embark on a huge war with the Seleucids and/or Carthage. I know what file to change the hitpoints in but what value would you recommend I change it to?

Thanks.

What's the current amount?

Try changing the Export Descr Unit (EDU)file in the data folder of RS 2.5.
localize the elephants in question, look the line starting with
stat_sec_armour (its the bigest change from RS 2.1 to RS 2.5) and tweak the numbers to something more of your taste.

In this link you have a nice Tutorial about the EDU

You can always compair previous values in 2.1.
As for 2.5, Carthaginean forest elephants seem to fine as they are.
If i were you i would cut the armor in half and test on custom battle.

Game only recognises 15 hitpoints anyway.
