    Cathapract might have gotten the best improvement out of all of them though, but generally I like all improvements.

    They still forgot to give Janissaries their distinctive white hats, which were literally the defining item that MADE them "Janissaries" vs any other soldier with an early gun... And I liked the older War Elephant animations: if you ever watch African Elephants, they DO wave their ears around like that all the time, because they're fanning themselves with them. Those are basically giant radiators. Standing there and swaying, and especially so often and so quickly, doesn't resemble a graceful giant in the least bit...

      Tarkans only light their torches when they are not idle. Teutonic Knights' white robe and black cross would make the unit harder to recognise, for instance if the player 6 (Purple has a teutonic knight) but I assume its the player 7 (For having a black cross). That could cause some unit recognition problem. About jans, I do find their look a bit bland for a janissary. I wish they could get their hats.

    I think I preferred the slower, more deliberate animations of the original for some of these. Namely, the Samurai. They seem more anxious for combat than a Huskarl or Berserker, the latter of which I expected to be looking around for something to fight constantly. The Elephants have a groove to them, so that's okay with me, and I do like the less hyperactive idles of the new cavalry units. As a suggestion, the Teutonic Knights should be made to instill a dominating presence through a body stance adjustment, and an animation that's as slow as their movement speed.

These armours have absolutely nothing to do with Hungarian configurations of the 1450s, you're more than 100 years off. You might as well arm them with flintlock pistols. Bathory ruled in the 1570s and wasn't even born until the 1530s.
      I'll tell you to do the same thing I did last time again. Go look for Hungarian frescos, miniatures, tapestry's or other Hungarian art from the 1450s-1480s. See how the Hungarians saw themselves. Come back to me when you find some. What you find is going to be far from ideal to your narrative which is why you've returned instead with one late 16th century original and two pages of reproductions that do not list any specific original they're based on allowing you to attach whatever date you want to it. You'll probably find many of the Hungarians are more heavily armoured than your late 16th century Hussar, wearing full steel armour from head to toe and a visored helmet or a helmet with a gorget or bevor.
