Pope as general unit?

[gammazeta430]

Hi all,

I've been currently playing then retrofit mod + grand unit addon and recently aided the papal states in a battle against a large rebel army. I noticed a red flag on the Papal States general and figured it was the Pope. However, his skin was a generic generals unit and when he rushed into enemy spearmen and bit the dust it said "our allies have lost their leader" and not "the pope is dead".

TLDR: After looking around tirelessly my question is if there are any unit addons/reskins of the Pope on the battle map? It would be much more satisfying and make more sense to literally see the pope in religious garb and hat surrounded by generals bodyguards rather then him leading a charge in full mail and armor.

Thanks!

Well , most of the popes were 50+ at the time they were chosen , so battles wouldn't be their favourite sport And even if they did join a battle , they wouldn't fight.
And yes , you may think : But what about the younger ones , able to fight ? Indeed , if he chose (the young pope) to join a battle , he wouldn't just charge , his papal guards wouldn't let him do it , as he is too valuable to lose and his life is far too important.

Anyway , here is what you are looking for :

I would love to see the Pope riding into battle with is religious garb. Maybe a crossbowman could shoot of his hat!

Haha, it would be funny! Or the chance to attack him with the Greek flamethrowers!

There is an assassin video in the game, in which the assassin fails, as the bolt hits the hat rather than his forehead.
