I was attempting to change the leadership properties for one of my leaders. I got this error message right away:

OutOfBoundsException

It happens with other units as well but not on a regular basis. So far happening with Side 1 more perhaps but cannot be sure.

The program crashes before I can edit any value.

I have been able to edit leader values with leaders. This is intermittent.

Quick Update: it is happening for the Sassanid Persian leaders (only I think). I can add in other types from the Legions Triumphant book (Parthians, etc) and they do not have a problem.

Cataphract General-a seems to be one of them that has issues with the Sassanid but so do the other Sassanid leader types.

I am going to do some other experiments to see what else is crashing.

Another update: I was able to use a Parthian unit, change its folder/image name to the Sassanid type I wanted (sassanid-Cav-clibanarii-d-general) and then its weapons/class type to match the type I wanted and then update the leader's properties.

Quite a work around but for now it is getting me where I want to be. Once I get the other generals fixed I will try and open the scenario up in the game to see if it works.

Ok - I can now definitely say that anytime I try and change the Leadership values of any Legion Triumphant - Sassanid leader unit the game crashes. I can change the Battlegroup properties (weapons, strengths, etc) with no problems. Anytime I try and change the Leadership values for this nation's leaders the game is crashing.

Note! This is ALSO happening in the regular game. It is NOT restricted to just the beta.

Check it out guys. Leaders for Sassanids poisoned! :lol:

I reported on this earlier: viewtopic.php?t=27420

Use an xml editor to change the Sassanid unit's "leaderrank" in the "game-fixed.xml" file for that scenario to a "1" or "2" and then you can make changes through the game editor.

Thanks. Was able to use Ultra Edit to fix the problem. Hopefully they can fix that soon. Did learn how the unit lines and so on in the game are coded so that was helpful.
