Royal Spartans' Secret Recipe

[BlueberryMenace]

Hi,

I'm rather new to Rome 2 modding. I'm trying to create some new hoplite units for WoS. Specifically, I'm trying to make a tier of hoplites that are better than Royal Spartans. The unit(s) I've made have all the same stats as Royal Spartans in the land_units and main_units tables, as well as the unit_set_to_unit table. On top of that, my new unit has much higher morale, melee att and melee def, and charge than Royal Spartans. Yet, every time I test them out in custom battle, I either lose against the enemy AI's royal spartan general, or I win but just barely (not representative of the huge stat difference I've used).

It's almost as if the Royal Spartans have a secret stat boost or attribute category just for them. Does anyone know what's with this? How can I make my new hoplites better than Royal Spartans?

Thanks

First post on here, apologize for any possible faux-pas

Just noticed I can attach my mod. I'll do that if anyone wants to look at it. Keep in mind this is a personal mod that I heavily based off of An1107's "Hoplites of Greek Poleis" mod hosted on Steam Workshop.

Ummm, have you tried being the royal Spartans and seeing if the ai still beats you when it is using your new unit?

i am wondering if it may be something funny like timing of charges or use of Hoplite wall or perhaps spamming of attack commands
