I’ve managed to get the numbering thing working too. Now your archers from
Camelot will be called Camelot bowmen 1 and Camelot bowmen 2. I’ll paste the
link. I also added some comments into the function that help a little with what
you have to do.

Ok, I just walk in, and Ian already slipped a new update under the door! Lol.
Yeah, the problem is that when a group of units are able to be bought with the
same resource, what generally happens is that the first one, or lowest costing
one is almost always chosen first. So that is probably why the merchant guild
would be only making small caravans if it is on ai control. Personally, I
usually turn that off, and just get the caravan I want when it is time to do so.
I am going to try and put this scripting stuff Abi very nicely provided and see
what happens. Hopefully, the units will be looking really neat with their new
tags! I am really looking forward to this.

Hi gang,
I went ahead and made all units controllable by the player ai controlled,
which can be shut off and on by the handy control+shift+A key combo.
Actually, when I opened up one of the maps, the computer literally started
playing on it’s own. That actually might be a fun thing to watch to see who
wins the various conflicts.
Anyway, I got to finally get the gnome spider riders like I want. They will
consistently spend two movement points, but they can cross any terrain due to
their climbing and floating on water abilities as described a little in their
unit description.
Also, you can hire out two different special characters that I didn’t put in
last time. The axe master is a dwarf champion for hire who can instill battle
rage into other units. The blade dancer can whirlwind attack all adjacent
units, good or bad in a 1 tile radius.
I haven’t gotten sounds and I am thinking of an exhaustion /fatigue on the
blade dancer (who is a high elf by the way, hired at the home tree). They both
cost 500 electrum. So essentially one large caravan can can theoretically reach
one dwelling and transfer over the money to hire the corresponding special unit.
I am still fine tuning, and hopefully it can get to a good spot. Oh, and I
think Ian has putt he warlords mappack on the map pack page. I asked him to
take down the dungeon quest since, let’s face it, it is just too much, and too
large. I really don’t want to mess with it anymore.
Anyone who still must have it, and it isn’t available for download, I will
still keep a copy and can put it on send space, but by request of course.
So you might be able to download warlords, or the link is below if you prefer
that instead. Personally, I love using the TB program to do it. Saves a lot of
hassle. Ian you did a good job on that!
