2. Add the necessary models, for vanilla Rome 2 units this is done by:
files -> add -> from pack
a new screen will open, go to your Rome 2 Data folder and select models_rome2.pack
a new screen will open, expand models_rome2.pack (+ sign), expand variantmeshes, expand _variantmodels, right click man (good job you've just added the models
)
expand variantmeshdefinitions and double click the model/unit you want to use
click ok

a new screen will open, go to your Attila Data folder and select models.pack
a new screen will open, expand models.pack (+ sign), expand variantmeshdefinitions and double click the model/unit you want to change (huzay we've got all the files we need
)
Now the editing begins
4. Right click the Rome II unit under variantleshdefinitions and click open -> as text
5. Copy the whole thing on the right hand side
6. Right click the Attila unit you want to change and click open -> as text
7. select everything and paste it over
8. Save it
9. Congragulations you just changed the unit, go and enjoy
Now the first times this can all be very confusing and dificult, but it gets easier the more times you try.
If you want to change other units, I would say you should try it, if it don't work or you hit some hard spots I (and a lot of other members I think) are willing to give a helping hand
