Does anyone know how to work the captions for pregame pics? I tried to put some in, but it would show the first caption on every pic instead of moving on down the list.

I am (easily) confused. Are you talking about the 'unit flavor' texts that display in the top bar when you select a unit? Or something different like scripting the text that displays in a solo map when you start the game - the 'prologue'?

Neither.
I'm talking about the captions that appear underneath the smaller pics that appear during the pregame narration (i.e., in Willow Creek it shows a bunch of tired warriors, then switches to the mayor talking to the warriors, then finally switches to a bunch of warriors walking down a road).
In Fear there's a little drop-down menu in the Storyline section that says "Picture Captions," and if you select a string list it displays the first string as a caption underneath the pregame pictures. But so far it will only show the first string in the list, and it shows it under every picture.
I don't think this was ever used in the original Myth. Maybe it just doesn't work the way it was intended?
