How do I add and delete units from a nation?

As Edratman said, the ability isn't granted. EA Caelum Eagle Kings have Fire Plates, so you can compare to them.

As Myrmidons are units, you can give them 50% fire resistance. They'll keep it even if their armor is destroyed or they're made commanders and equipped with different armor, but those are special cases and not that important, really.

Two posts.

Answer to first post: No.

A unit does not get the benefit of an item when it is made part of base equipment. You get the armor value, for this example, but any special properties are not granted..

There are two ways.

1. Make a mod with commands like this:

#selectnation 21
#name "EA Atlantis"
#era 2

2. The other way is far easier. Select your opponents from the startup menu instead of using random.

Thanks!

I've been doing option #2, but I want to use the random nation generator so I get a surprise here and there.

Besides, option #1 isn't so hard at all!

Never tried that to remove a hero.

If I want to add a new hero and delete one I just remake the entire hero list filling all 8 slots, 6 regular and 2 multiheroes.

Is there a way to demote a monster from the Pretender List? I couldn't find anything on the mod manual about this, as well as--relatedly--changing Pretender availability for different nations.

Oops, I was wrong. I found the answer in section 7.80 of the mod manual.

The problem is that coming up with a list of 6 alternative heroes is difficult for some nations, and I couldn't really think of heroes that I could give to Hinnom that fit the theme among the list of national heroes. I suppose I can create heroes out of scratch, but that really is beyond my capacities at this point

Just remake their current heroes without the pop eating. Simple.

Or duplicate the heroes to fill the list.
