Thanks to all volunteers for the help, and Pocus and Gray Lensman for the help with my first dive into the modding world.

If you want to simply unzip into your C:\Program Files\AGEod's American Civil War\ACW folder, you should be able to do it that way, just choose to overwrite all files.  If you would prefer the step by step instructions, see below.


Quick and easy to install (Based on you installing to the base directory and drive):
1. Remember to back your files up.
2. Go into your C:\Program Files\AGEod's American Civil War\ACW\Aliases and delete the mdl_Alias file and the  uni_Alias files
3. Replace them with the mdl_Alias and uni_Alias files from this zip.
4. Delete the C:\Program Files\AGEod's American Civil War\ACW\GameData\Models and the \Units folders
5. Replace the folders with the Model and Units folders from this zip.

Start the game and give it a go, every general should now be promotable.  I recommend using this mod with the "Random Generals" option.  In the vanilla game, generally the generals that are worth promoting, can be promoted.  To truly change things up, this allows you to play the game with say, Thomas Meagher or John Magruder leading your armies instead of Grant and Lee, depending on ratings.  This mod does not change any base ratings or traits.
