Cataph's - Imperator Augustus: new units for eastern factions (add-on for Persian Rosters Expansion)

Description
For now this adds the units from our previous Persian Rosters Expansion to the parthian satrapies and the other eastern/iranian factions in the Imperator Augustus Campaign. Namely, from Palmyra to Paradene. Not Armenia.

Here's a quick list of the new units:
- Persian Sparabara (medium spearmen)
- Persian Takabara (medium axemen)
- Persian Infantry (basic spearmen with bows)
- Osroene Hillmen (melee-capable peltasts for Atropatene and Palmyra)
- Osroene Peltasts (heavier Hillmen, again for Atropatene and Palmyra)
- Persian Companions (the old Immortals, spear-bow infantry, Persia only)
- Persian Cataphracts (Eastern Cataphracts 1.2, Characene, Atropatene and Persia only)
- Persian Immortal Cataphracts (ultimate cataphracts; ditto)
- Persian Light Horse (basically mounted takabara, Characene, Atropatene, Drangiana and Persia)
- Babylonian Guard (hoplite guard, Characene only)
- Indian Longbowmen (guerrilla bowmen; Paradene and Drangiana only)
- Indian Spear Levy (guerrilla basic spearmen; ditto)

No pikemen and no silver shields of olden times.
The new guy, Palmyra, also gets Syrian Archers and Parthian Swordsmen (placeholder).
Screenshots and infoes in the main mod for now.

THIS PACK REQUIRES THE MAIN PACK LINKED ABOVE AND WON'T WORK WITHOUT IT
It's as simple as that, this one contains only the permissions and not the units themselves.
Also, if you want to play as one of those factions, you need an unlock.

Any issue, just let me know.



Note that while those units will stay there and are not a temporary placeholder, they will hold the door until I crank out new stuff especially for the new campaign. Stay tuned then.

Modders note: I changed the emp_Atropatene grouping to the same used by the others (basically to get rid of my pikemen). If you happen to be adding stuff to its "media" military_grouping and you see stuff not appearing, that's why.

Disclaimer: yes, the picture above is from South Park. Yes, it is hilarious. No, I do not own any rights of that.

Nice work! Im glad some character has been added to these eastern factions. They felt completely forgotten before and conquering this huge portion of the map was boring as a result. Is it possible to have this implemented into the vanilla campaign?

Tested this mod out, despite it saying out-dated. It does not work in-game, none of the units show up in the minor factions that I, and a friend, have tested out so far. Perhaps it's the unlocker we're using that is affecting it, or perhaps it's the mod itself. Just thought we'd let you know just in case you're interested.

== Updated for Desert patch ==

Warning: I haven't played R2 for years, can't check full functionality in campaign.

It's that time of the year again, it seems. If the mod is not working state your problem, if you only want that meaningless ! sign to be gone, be patient until I have something to actually fix.
