GREAT WORK i like vanilla filling rtw with fixed historical factions, unit models, animations, formations inaccuracies. One thing i would like to see fixed post Marian roman units (legionaries early and late, praetorian) they should have gallic type helmet with "NOTICEABLE neck protecting" part witch is poorly done in vanilla that made me mad :). I know its modelling part of work but if there is a way to fix only helmet not full equipment i would be very grateful.
Thanks for the comment! Will look into the helmet :)
