    Default assign new general

    i want to change my generals appearance. i want them to look like a specific unit.

    for example:
    i want my german generals to look like german axemen.

    how do i do that. i am familiar with adding and changing units...but how do i change generals.

    i guess i have to make a new general unit and give it a different name in "type" in descr_model_battle eg new_general.
    but where does rtw look for which general it will take? i mean there must be another file/entry where it tells the game to pick "new_general" instead of the default one, right?

    help plz

    Descr_characters.txt defines what model the general uses on the strat map and battle map.
