BOR: Samnites with just light infantry?

Is it WAD that in 3rd Samnite War scenario the Samnite main avaliable infantry is a light one (at least according to description)? Every other Italic nation has their own heavy/line infantry from what I can see.

Disbanding units

Lame question probably, but I just can't figure how to disband any unit. No matter what I do, I never see a disband order acitvated. Is this feature in game at all? According to the manual, it should be possible at any time as I understand.

BTW, can it be WAD that after taking Rome with Vitellians I got victory screen and then remaining Othonian forces joined my side including Otho - still alive - himself ? They still have green backgrounds in TDMs, but I can issue them orders. Anyone? I'm a bit afraid this may cause CTD or some bugs ...

They added that, but left in a way to assault multiple structures. Red/red assault is supposed to assault multiple structures. Red/orange and below is supposed to just assault at the end. This was done to help the AI not accidentally assault structures in between since they don't use red/red. Sound...

I won as Vitellius without any major engagement besides taking Vindonissa camp. Caecina crossed the Alps, bypassed more or less garrisoned cities and marched straight to Rome and seized it.

Yeah, it's much needed in a future patch. Too much confusion now. I.e. playing as Vitellius you have - besides legions - Gallic/Briton/German auxilia cohorts & alas which have normal speed & CP costs. At the same time you have many Germanic mercenaries, which crawl like turtles outside Germania and ...

Thanks. But it's not a problem of general logic behind this, rather of the size of "time gap". I.e. now I'm trying to move Vitelius (slow drunkard anyway) with only Germanic auxilia form Vindonissa to Argentarum - just 2 provinces anway - and it shows arrival time of 80 days! It's insane (middle of ...

I have noted regional decisions that affect loyalty.

It's...

Loyalty

Another question, maybe lame, but I don't quite get how you win loyalty in conquered regions.

Afterall, we're talking here about civil wars wh...

Yakir is indeed not in the game. The wiki article is a bit dubious (low on quotations high on praise). Nevertheless, it seems the man should be in the game.
