Did you mod the animations or touch the animation files in anyway. Your game can't find the skeleton because it's missing from your animation DAT/IDX files.
If you open the C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\Data\animations skeletons.idx with notepad, you will see all the skeletons in your game.
Now you will have to go to:
C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\Data descr_mode_battle.txt and change the missing skeletons to existing ones.
For example you can change
type east_heavy_infantry
skeleton fs_spearman, fs_swordsman
to
type east_heavy_infantry
skeleton fs_spearman, fs_2handswordsman
if fs_swordsman is missing from your .idx and you can find fs_2handswordsman instead.
Skeletons with hc are for mounted units
