Description:

THE MOD FILE HAS THE NAME OF AN OLDER VERSION DUE TO SOME UPLOAD ISSUES THAT OCCURED WHEN I TRIED TO CHANGE THE NAME.

UNFORTUNATELY THE GAME CRASHES WHEN YOU LOAD THIS MOD WITH THE OFFICIAL MOD MANAGER. UNTIL I FIND A WAY TO FIX THIS PLEASE USE THE MITCH’S MOD MANAGER.

1.When at least one of two units that battle each other is keeping its formation there are only short choreographies, not matched combat. It is possibly more realistic and historically accurate for armies which were relying on formations such as the greek and roman army because the soldiers were forming a shield wall and waiting for the enemy soldier to make the wrong move and kill him.

2.When there are fighting two non formation keeping units with each other there is matched combat because every soldier fights on his own.

3.Biger clashing animations percentage.

4. Kill rate decreased.

5. Fixed charging animations and now they won’t be followed by matched combat and the units will keep their formation. Now when a unit charges against a formation keeping unit it looκs like they hit on a solid shield. wall.

6.Barbarian unit spacing:

I changed the unit spacing for barbarian units that don’t have as a special ability any formation so they will look like disorganized groups. Pictures below:Note** If a formation keeping unit is fighting with a barbarian unit with this disorganised spacing it will not keep it’s frontline as strictly as in the version that doesn’t have this addon.

7. Rare fighting animations can be seen more frequently now. This would not be possible without Petro who allaowed me to use the animation files from "More bloody animations mod". http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=339901182

Some elite barbarian units have random spacing because otherwise, for unknown reason, some low tier barbarian units were also forming lines.
