Altering the starting regions.

[Rijul.J.Ballal]

I wish to change the cities i control when i begin the campaign,
ie i want to make Parthia like the Persian empire and Macedon like it was before Alexander started conquering. So how would i go abut doing this? How do i cange the owner ship of a faction? and how do i manage to put troops in the cities?And can i change the cultural factors?

I assume you move the region/settlement details in the descr_strat file from whichever faction owns it normally and then to the one you want to own it. Don't change the "faction_creator" designation, though. For a more in-depth explanation, this thread seems to give some basics and for specifics you can look here

The faction area would look like this

faction romans_scipii, bureaucrat napoleon
denari 5000

region/settlement layout would look like this

settlement
{
level
region

year_founded
population
settlement_tax
plan_set
faction_creator
building
{
[This is where the list of the buildings go]
}
}

Hope i helped,
