    3. You have to type it with quotes around unit type and a family members name, but not a settlement, like create_unit Sparta "roman arcani" 5 9 3 3 3 or create_unit "Madyes" "roman arcani" 5 9 3 3 3, settlement or family members name must show as it appears inc;using ca[s

  4. You need to type it like create_unit Rome "roman heavy cavalry" for example.

    ReplyDelete
  5. To make this code work, you need to type in either the name of the town you want to make a unit in first, or to type in the name of the general you want a unit to spawn with if he isn't in a town.

    City example; create_unit Carthage "carthaginian infantry" 1/9/3/3 ~ with a space between numbers instead of a "/" mark.

    General example; create_unit "Publius Propertius" "roman light cavalry" 1/9/3/3 ~ Again, with a space between numbers instead of the "/" marks.

    Hope this helps!

    1. what is this 1933?

      Delete
    2. the 1 stands for the amount of units, ranging from 1 to 5 I believe, trhe 9 in the experience (9 being 3x gold) 3 3 are both for armour/defence (so 3 being gold) :)

  6. For some reason the "create_unit" cheat doesn't work in an unpatched version of the game. Be sure to uptade it (1.5 patch recommended). That's should solve your problem

    ReplyDelete
  7. Make sure that when you type in the unit code to not use capital letters, the game recognises the IDs in lower case
    for example "roman archer" and NOT "Roman Archer"

  8. It only works for Greek units

    2. create_unit Rome "roman archer" 4 9 3 3
      make sure you capatilize the first letter in the city.
      if you do it right then 4 groups of achers should show up in rome with maxed stats, course since you are just starting the game you might want to try Ariminum one of your starting cities

  12. i keep getting err cannot add unit to character in residence can anyone help me?

  13. For cities with two names, and no this isn't one of them. Roman City. You have to put that city name in qutotation marks. EX:
    Create_Unit "Roman City" "roman peasant" 5 9 3 3
    The unit names are never capitalized and must be in quotation marks, the city names must be capitalized yet single named cities are not required to be in quotations EX; a city named Roman is typed as
    Create_Unit Roman "roman peasant" 5 9 3 3.
    Always be sure to check simple typing errors before urge to throw computer arises. I've lost count of how many times I've mistyped praetorian :)

  15. So i type in 'create_unit Arretium roman praetorian cohort urban i 5/9/3/3' and it says unit type not recognised and thats what it says in the list to type in..PLS HELP MEH

    1. As others have pointed out, if there are any spaces in a name (be it a town name or a unit name or a general name) you need to put the name in quotation marks. For example:

      create_unit "Narbo Martius" "roman praetorian cohort urban i" 5 9 3 3

      The above code will create 5 maxed urban cohorts in Narbo Martius. Always remember: without quotation marks, the console will treat the space character as the boundary between two different input fields (I.e the code you typed above would be interpreted as having the unit type be "roman", the number being "praetorian", the experience level being "cohort" etc.).

      Another important thing to remember is that everything is case sensitive

      For reference, in general the correct usage should be:

      create_unit "" ""

      Delete
    2. Apologies, my example didn't work, trying again:

      create_unit "(general/town/admiral name)" "(unit name)" (number of units) (experience value) (weapon quality) (armour quality)

      Where the brackets are replaced with whatever it says inside them. Remember, with single word names (e.g Arretium), the quotation marks aren't necessary, but any name with a space in it (e.g. Narbo Martius, Condate Redonum, Admiral Oppius etc.) You NEED quotation marks around it in order for the console to interpret it as a single name.

  18. Im gonna write a code to exact standards so we all know nobody ever does this fuck example HERE

    create_unit Narbo_Martius "roman hastati"5 9 3 3

    Note everything is exact space and punctuation. At the end the 5933 have a space between them but not at the start with number 5 you type 5 9 3 3 after the """"""" sign if you don't understand that then fuck message me smokes1187@hotmail.com

  19. First off, thanks to everyone for the help. I LOVE this cheat, its very helpful when you're in a tight spot (or you just wanna dominate haha) i know this is an old thread, but if anyone is out there, please help me.....

    how do you give_traits or create_units to Generals with a name that has changed such as "Amulius the Clever" or "Publius the Honest" or "Aloeus of Sparta"? i read somewhere to put an underscore somewhere, but i can't find that website again. please help and use about 2 or 3 examples of it.

    Thank you,

  30. I had the same issues spawning units but after a few try's i found what i did wrong. Only thing i cant spawn in are the berserkers and bastarnae but chances are big that its my fault aswell. 99% of the codes work perfectly on my s7.

  32. some reason i type the cheat code create_unit "character name" "Roman equite" 5 8 8 8 and the game does not see it as type of unit?

    1. Character name must start with a capital letter and unit type must be all lower case. In your example you put character name in small caps and you capitalized Roman
