After watching a few of the pre-release trailers for the game I was struck by how good (if out-of-place) the original battle models for the captain (floppy-hatted guy) and general (similar to the current model but less decoration - still shown in some of the event scrolls e.g. your reinforcements have arrived, the enemy assaults your settlement etc.) were. Are they perhaps still present in the game but unused, ready to be activated with a few changes to the text files?
