Want 40 units fighting under one General? Here is how!

Epic28 you say you don't know how to get rid of that black banner issue but when I look at the screen on page 1 that army has 40 units without this.

[Epic28]

I'm using this mod and no ctd

What is your max unit/army value set at?

Epic28 you say you don't know how to get rid of that black banner issue but when I look at the screen on page 1 that army has 40 units without this.

That screen in the OP is just showing the potential recruitment of units passed 20. Those units aren't actually in my army. When the turns pass you'd see a black bar for each unit fill up (just above the gold ones).

OK, OK I just realized after shelving this game for some months that you can no longer have 100 unit armies...in' hate that and I absolutely hate CA. Its like having a friend who comes to your house and consistently breaks something...you can't just be happy with the relationship and you get the raw end of the deal. And to think I pre-prdered this awful game. 100 unit armies was something I could live with and still play. I really hope another more competent, open-minded, less hoidy-toidy company comes along with modding gameplan. This just sucks.

I will never forget my first army...74 units strong and Spartan. Taking on all odds, cutting a swathe through barbarous lands to the north.

Did I mention that I hate CA...I do...true story...

I am not sure what your OP was prior to editing, but I assumed it was something along the lines of how great it is to have 100 unit armies, or just 40 unit armies in the case of this thread.

Honestly I don't even play Rome 2 anymore because the more I touch the game the more I hate it. I am putting it away for now in hopes that mods can restore it to bring back old enjoyable memories of past TW titles.

So this actually has prohibited me from testing and even bothering to work on this guide to make the game support more than 35 units/army. Unfortunately I can't change the title of the thread.

40 units working for 150+ turns on DEI here

I play with DeI also. Is it true ?... 40 units per army ? ... the Ai recruits 40 units for ennemy armies too ? ... Could you say more please ? .. Your impressions, is it save game compatible, Does it works with version 0.8c ?... that kind of things.

[danthemanbuddy]

Seems to work fine, AI recruits 40 units fine. The only issue is performance when there are 20000+ men on the battlefield. Having your 40 man stack versus two 40 man stacks can lead to some tough battles. Of course I recommend no force march, since the AI would just waste that stack to an easy ambush.

[Clerc]

Well fine !... go to the tough battles. I prefer them like that.
thanks for the answer.

EDIT : Today an official No Forced March submod for DeI is out

[hello_me]

does doing this also allow the ai to recruit up to 40 units or just you? and if the ai is able to recruit 40 units do they eventually make bigger armies?

[Epic28]

Yes this allows the AI to recruit up to 40 units per army. And yes the AI utilizes 40 units, look on page 2 for a screen of the enemy AI actively recruiting larger armies.

[Simoasd]

Is it possible to remove the limit of 40 units on the battlefield?

It would be great to see 2 legions of 40 units each fighting side by side.

[Epic28]

You can't control more than 40 units at once in a battle, no. But you can be reinforced by more than 40 units similar to how reinforcements worked in older TW titles.

You mean no more than 40 units on the field max. but more only available when unit routs?

[Oleg Semak]

i have more 40 unit on the battle in 1 army.

[Captain Melon]

It was possible in previous version of Rome 2 to control more than 40 units? Condotiere SOG said he had 100 units before the newest patches removed the ability to do that, if I understood correctly?

40 controllable units is the hardcap for Rome 2. You can bring more but they only enter the battle upon another unit fully routing or dying completely, one out one in process.

You need to wait a few seconds after editing the values (they will turn the color Red to confirm you did it correctly). Then hit save and the computer will freeze for a moment. After that it will be saved.

ok thank you very much walking his grace to you.
