I'm playing as greeks and facing the macedonian army(mine's is shown beneath). However.... They look like roman units!!!!... when I check the info card for the unit, it shows up as dark gray peasant and info belonging to roman unit!!!! (after defeating them, game crash comes in) What the hell is going on here??? :-(
I'd thank a help!
Ps. This only happens on campaign. Problem isn't observed on Custom Battle. I've got BI 1.4 (with unoficial bug fixer v 2.06) & up graded RTW 1.3 (by BI).

It might be the BUG-FIXER patch. Because it's unofficial (and I'm not saying anything about it's creator's modding skills, mind you) there are likely to be errors. The unit might be an unnecessary line in whatever file you go in for mercenaries. Alternatly, where did you get 1.4? I haven't heard anything about a patch 1.4 for BI, and I'm sure that if one was created, Adder would add it to the news.
BI is 1.4, RTW is patched to 1.3 when you install BI (or alternatively download and install the 1.3 patch if you don't want BI).

You must have installed some mod and not just playing RTW 1.3 cause some of your Greek cav and hoplites aren't part of RTW 1.3. That mod probably causes the trouble, for it's not that "They look like roman units", they are Roman units (only with the Macedon flag)....look at the pigs...

There's no mod installed, just some greek units skins (they haven't replaced any). I said they look like romans because I suposse I'm facing the macedonians, not romans. Check this out: [JPEG, (147.84 KB)] Don't figure out what the problem could be.... any good ideas?

the unit cards look different. is that part of the 1.3 patch or is it something different. they look pretty cool
So, they act as new units for greek faction, specially poor in nice units. Easy to install, they look and act pretty cool :-)
Take care, dude

hey george kings,
ive installed those skins they work fine in custom battle but i havnt tried in campaign mode. i reckon the bug fixer thing stuffs it up, anyway you know those amazon archers? well they stuffed up my game because it CTDs after starting the game. I thinks its because you have to replace some files or something. So i uninstalled it and im going to try again but this time i might put on mundus magnus, the new skins then the bug fixer. ill tell you if the problem of the roman-macedonian units fixed.
