I captured a LU the 1st Minn or something like that. It was an artillery unit. It was 10#parrotts I belive (don't have the game open) They gave me the unit, but the artillery was improvised as I don't have the capability to have the guns yet. I put in some 24# How (paid for with resources) and tried to rename the unit, but just kept giving the Bio on the LU. It isn't a big deal I just got some Nordic gunner merc's now[:D][:D].

I find it easier to capture my guns then to build them. Those guns did take a toll[:@] until the Union broke and I used about 7 brigades to finally surrounded the SOB's[:D][:D].

You can't rename LU's.

That brigade was an infantry brigade, but I guess the AI bought two brigade artillery attributes for it and converted it. That happens sometimes.

The game uses the name of the LU to keep players from getting duplicate LU's.  If you could rename the "Iron Brigade" to something else, the game might keep creating new "Iron Brigades".
