Step 1. Download "EditSF". http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...-Array-Editing

Step 2. Now go and start a new campaign and save it at turn 1.
(you can edit an ongoing campaign too, but a new one is recommended for various reasons)

Step 3. Open EditSF and open the save file you just saved (usually located in C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Rome2\save_games )
If you can't find AppData then you need to to reveal hidden folders in the Windows-folder settings.

Step 4. Navigate to the table shown on this screenshot. You'll see two "20" numbers near each other. The upper 20 is the unit cap per army. The 20 below that is the navy cap per fleet. On my screenshot I've already edited the unit cap per army to 41 which is the max stable cap you can have without the game crashing so you can put this to anything between 20 and 41.





Step 5. Now just hit save, close the program and load your game. You only have to do this once at the beginning of the game.




Notes:

* Do NOT edit navies above the default 20. Anything above that will crash the game.

* You don't have to use 41 for armies, you can go with 25, 30 or whatever you like as long as you don't go above 41.

* You need a pretty good PC to handle armies these big, might be a good idea to lower visual settings a bit. The game might slow down from time to time due to the engine having a tough time processing all the troops. This is especially noticeable in sieges when CA's not-so-good pathfinding "shines through".

* Get ready for a tough time! And you should probably add extra troops to your garrisons...!






Have fun!
