By selecting Large for the first battle and Very Large for the last. There is no way to increase it further without modding.

I would recommend against modding it because anomalies can occur when cheap armies have too many units.

However, if you want to try it you can, but we cannot guarantee it won't cause bugs in your campaign.

As usual you are strongly advised not to mod files in the main build.

Go into the editor. Select New. Put MyMPSRiseOfRome in the first two text boxes. Do not tick the check boxes. Click the Copy of button and select CAMPAIGNS/2MPSRiseOfRome. Proceed.

It will be saved as /Documents/My Games/FieldOfGlory2/Campaigns/MyMPSRiseofRome

Copy MultiPartSkirmishTools.BSF from /Data/scripts in the main build to /Documents/My Games/FieldOfGlory2/Campaigns/MyMPSRiseofRome/data/Battle/scripts (NOT /data/scripts)

Edit the points totals in the MPS_GetPointsFromSizeCode(size) function on lines 759-791.

size 0 = very small, size 4 = very large

When you load up campaigns you will see a second version of Rise of Rome Campaigns - that will be your modded version.

Thanks for your reply. It works well with 2000 army points for a large battle (for the moment no bug)

Do you when the limit of units than occurs a bug?

Not really, because it also depends on the width of the map, and on the amount of choice in the army list, because all chooseable units are actually on the map (hidden in the black border) before force selection.

Hello,

after playing dozens of battles with 200pts for large and 2400 pts for very large battle in campaign mod, I only have one minor bug (once a only javeliner troop of my ennemi was placed one step behind the ai deploiement zone so this unit was not in the fog of war)

I can say that it works very good

NB: with the last patch the line to mod was not the same
