.. by editing my save games?
I know we can't create mods yet, or new scenarios, but I thought this might be possible. I just want to do things like be able to increase or decrease the number of Roman Legions in an army, etc.
What program would or could I use to edit the .dat save game files? Is it possible?
Thanks in advance.

No, you cannot mod until you send me your next turn in Revolution Under Siege. [:D]
Although, I am looking at getting this as well.
Do you have it? What are your thoughts?
And if the designer happens to see this, imagine....
Diadoch wars! Oooh!

Oh geez, it's a FANTASTIC game! The map is a beauty and the combat system is fun and easy to grasp. Tutorials are great. The only sticking points are the price and inability to PBEM, but I'm having a hell of a lot of fun versus the AI.

I am sorry, but this is not possible. There are too many cross-dependencies in the saved game format.
But I will give strong consideration to creating something like a scenario editor. That would amount to creating custom saved games. You won't be able to tailor the AI itself - it will retain its same strategic outlook.
Perhaps I can integrate this into the game along with the simple economic model for the Carthaginian side which I have in mind.

That's quite all right. I very much look forward to any kind of editor! Thanks for your prompt response!
