Too many leaders

First post and first time with a screenshot so hope it works.
Was giving the Peninsula war a go as the Coalition and I got 5 copys of Don Jose de Zayas. This was great has he looks like a good leader. I also got a double leader in my first game Battle for France as the Coalition player.
I just left the second copy in the backfield but this time I got five leaders.
Did not see a post about it so thought I would I ask if anybody else is getting the error?

Checked everything, can't find a trace of the potential multiple occurence of that leader... very strange. Do you have the save of this game, or can you let me know when it happened (date/turn) and if all 5 Zayas' pop-up at the same instant ? :tournepas :bonk:

The leaders all showed on the same turn.
It was the first turn that the leader arrived turn 5.
It may have been turn 4 I may have hit end turn to see if it would fix it.
Saved game file attached if I did it correctly.

it's the event evt_nam_Levies_SPA_01June1808_3, and it's probably chokes on the fact that uni_SPA_Bde1LE is not present in the alias file, thus spewing out clones of generals, as that's what unit type the thing was set to create beforehand.

Replace the event file in the proper Events folder by the one enclosed here. It should work. :cwboy: :siffle:
