Are there animations created for axe throwing or knife throwing?

That would be nice. Or throwing rocks, so we could allow melee units onto walls and give them a short-range rock throwing animation.

I was thinking mainly for Millenium AD but this sounds cool.

We need alternative attacks and then I can definitely envision allowing melee troops onto walls and giving them this very short range "ranged" attack.

Man oh man that rock is heavy...

What about interest in the throwing axe? This is both about the throwing animation as well as the rotating axe animation.

Probably just animate an axe to spin in place, then set it as a projectile (though it might keep spinning even after it’s landed in the ground XD).
