    Default where to find additional unit info?

    Hello there, playing Lithuania right now and to my disappointment there are huge discrepancies in the ammo count of all the ranged units ... I really, really would like to know how much ammo they all have. For example the prussian auxiliary has 6, which is far, far less than the Lithuanian cavalry with ... 25? Would have been cool to know that beforehand. cheers

    You can look in EDU file for SS. There is no info on unit cards for this kind of stuff, tho it can be putted in a description of a unit, but has to be done manually, unit by unit...

    thank you for the answer - I presumed the file would be titled (something).edu but I did not find any of those in the SS folder - which files are the ones? I'm kind of lost right now, don't know anything about modding this game (yet)

    He meant the export_descr_unit.txt file, located in ..\Medieval II Total War\mods\SS6.3\data folder.

    The part you are looking for is the stat_pri line.
    The parameters mean:
    11 = damage
    5 = charge bonus
    cav_javelin = missile type
    55 = range
    6 = ammo count
    thrown = weapon type
    missile_mechanic = tech type
    piercing = damage type
    spear = sound used
    0 = attack delay
    1 = weapon priority ( in case a unit has more primary weapons - no units in SS does though)

    Code:
    type             Prussian Auxillia
    dictionary       prussian_auxillia      ; prussian_auxillia, local, merc(ep)
    category         cavalry
    class            missile
    voice_type       Light
    banner faction   main_cavalry
    banner holy      crusade_cavalry
    soldier          Jinetes, 24, 0, 1
    officer          northern_captain_early_flag
    mount            medium horse
    mount_effect     elephant -4, camel -4 
    attributes       sea_faring, hide_forest, hardy, can_withdraw, cantabrian_circle, mercenary_unit, start_not_skirmishing
    formation        2, 4.4, 3, 4.4, 4, square
    stat_health      1, 3
    stat_pri         11, 5, cav_javelin, 55, 6, thrown, missile_mechanical, piercing, spear, 0, 1
    stat_pri_attr    area, thrown
    stat_sec         3, 3, no, 0, 0, melee, melee_blade, slashing, axe, 90, 1
    stat_sec_attr    no
    stat_pri_armour  4, 1, 3, metal ; mail
    stat_sec_armour  0, 0, flesh
    stat_heat        6
    stat_ground      -1, -2, -3, 0 
    stat_mental      9, low, untrained
    stat_charge_dist 6
    stat_fire_delay  0
    stat_food        60, 300
    stat_cost        2, 966, 723, 100, 723, 723, 4, 200
    armour_ug_levels 7, 11
    armour_ug_models prussian_auxillia, prussian_auxillia_ug1
    ownership        all ; teutonic_order, slave
    recruit_priority_offset    0

    thank you kind sir, that helped a ton!

    do you know where to find what all the "special" unit things do exactly, like flaming arrows, schiltrom, shield wall etc?

    you seem to know your way around, that's why I am asking

    cheers

    Is this sub-mod included in the general 6.3/6.4 SS mod(s) that I just downloaded and installed?
