How do you edit hvy cavalry so they can skirmish with javelins?

I've noticed that the Numidian generals' bodyguards are class 'heavy' but can skirmish and use javelins (which is nice and - imo - historically accurate).

I've been trying to edit Italic cavalry in my game to do the same. I copied the primary and secondary weapons lines from the Numidian generals' unit to them but it seems to make no difference when i open the game up (i've gone to the ExRM mod folder and then data, then the edu).

How do i edit them so they can skirmish and use javelins? Very grateful if anyone can tell me. I could just change them to 'missile' class i know, but what is the other way that's used e.g with the Numidian general's bodyguard?

It's not quite that simple. You need a model and an appropriate texture that can actually use javelins. Getting them to skirmish after that wouldn't be hard, just change their class to "missile."
