Hey
Thanks for the info.
Elemental is the first game I'm trying to make mods for, and one thing I learned is to close the XML editor when tired, there's just to many lines of info. That SovereignHistories.xml file was staring me right in the face.
I have not been able to replace the Sentinels, but I did give them each a tweaked Longbow and some Boots for increased movement.
Now I just have to figure how to make my custom buildings available to my custom faction only and not to all the other men races on the Map.
