    Default Barbarian giants

    Is it possible to make the barbarian units smaller in size? It looks so silly that the romans are tiny men compared to the barbarian tribes.

    If you compare the barbarian rooster to the roman ones you can see that the barbarian models are a lot huger

    Rome II already had this problem...

    I hope that one modder is able to fix this. Both Romans and barbarians should have the same height scales.

    I can't play until someone fix it. It ruins the immersion so much

    Nordic Men in this time were known to be much larger then most I think it helps immersion when playing as Vikings

    In Rome II there was a mod that fixed this error...

    That statement is debatable.

    However, the problem is that the Roman legions were composed mostly by Germans. Then the Germans themselves are much larger if they belong to a barbarous people that if fighting for Rome. It makes no sense.

    I am sure CA fixed that "problem" in Rome II by themselves. I hope they will do the same for Attila. I mean the barbarians should be a bit bigger than Romans and Easterners but not that tall as currently depicted.

    Do you know what the height scales are set at in Rome 2? Can someone find that out. I'd like to compare it.

    CA has the unit height scale set to .95 for Huns, .975 for Romans and Easterners, 1-1.05 for Germanics, and 1.075 for Norse.

    I've made this, it should set them all at 1. It's a very easy change, and it should work fine. Let me know if it doesn't.

    August Strindberg: "There's a view, current at the moment even among quite sensible people, that women, that secondary form of humanity (second to men, the lords and shapers of human civilisation) should in some way become equal with men, or could so be; this is leading to a struggle which is both bizarre and doomed. It's bizarre because a secondary form, by the laws of science, is always going to be a secondary form. Imagine two people, A (a man) and B (a woman). They start to run a race from the same point, C. A (the man) has a speed of, let's say, 100; B (the woman) has a speed of 60. Now, the question is 'Can B ever overtake A?" and the answer is 'Never!'. Whatever training, encouragement or self-denial is applied, the proposition is as impossible as that two parallel lines should ever meet."

    I actually reported this as a bug recently. Does this just change the height or does it also change the bulk of the men? Because some of the barbarians not only seem taller they seem a lot more buff. Like they're all on massive amounts of steroids.
