I have a question: the programming is different regarding the movement and behavior of a LOTR BFME battalion. How do you plan to modify that without touching the engine?

You're assuming it's a game, and the problem is that it would stop being fun. Games have internal logic; you don't expect that much realism. Games have a fun curve. Why does realism sometimes harm the experience? Fun Curve: In video games, extreme realism often makes controls worse. Selection of Details: The human brain ignores many things. An excess of realistic details can distract from the narrative. --- Not to mention that it ruins the experience.

In video games( and movies) there is something called "credibility" which is not the same as realism. Many of the things you do in a video game have to be believable.It should be logical, not absurd or exaggerated. The game is an abstraction of reality. Imagine an RTS where you add physiological needs; it would be realistic but not logical or believable. ---Clear Definitions--- Realism: Attempts to replicate reality as faithfully as possible (physics, human behavior, visual appearance, logical consequences, etc.). Credibility (or plausibility/verisimilitude): Makes the audience believe in the world even if it is impossible. It is based on internal consistency, consistent rules, and emotional/narrative logic within the created universe. Realism seeks external precision. Credibility seeks convincing suspension of disbelief.

Sounds interesting.

A way has to be found to create those portraits. I personally don't like the current style, but especially when they're seen on a large scale.
