String Editor

With this tool, you can modify large quantities of text very quickly - including text in Total War EDU files. You can, for example, set all spear skirmish units not to fire at will at the start of a battle by default, remove the mercenary attribute from certain units, or change the attack rate of all towers by 10%, among many other possibilities.
