There is a strange diversity among the gondor soldier skins, while they are actually supposed to look the same. I made a little research, and found out that it has to do with the spearman model being different from the common soldier model.

This is my suggestion
- replace current archer, soldier, knight (same as soldier :sad:), spearman and trebuchet crew skins with my versions
- change all of their models to the current gondor spearman model (better mapping and more human-like)...the weapons aren't even part of the skn file, so it'll just be replacing work

Pros
- all soldier units will have the same armour type
- variation will come from their different faces (included in my skins)
- we get rid of the ugly polygon head that all gondor units have atm
- no more golden gondorians, as my skins add chainmail when heavy armour is equipped

Here are my skins

Comments are welcome

Why polygons are uglier than proper spearman heads:

When fighting against them, isn't it hard to see whether they got heavy armour or not?
It has been reported that some victims of rape, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not WAKE UP. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren't being raped. The only way that they realized they needed to WAKE UP was a note they found in their fantasy world. It would tell them about their condition, and tell them to WAKE UP. Even then, it would often take months until they were ready to discard their fantasy world and PLEASE WAKE UP

I didn't think so when I tested it...
my chain mail has the same colour as their armour (not as dark as RJ's) so it's not rly hard to see

How do you add these skins to your own RJ? Or were they already implemented in version 1.06?
