we have(you have XD) that in the team?

I checked the Vimeo page of the video and it says it was captured at the University of Utrecht. Having used such a capturing system myself in a lab, I know this stuff is very expensive and usually not available beyond universities or bigger companies. Modern tech such as Microsoft's Kinect could make it become available to everyone at a fairly low price. The quality would be more than enough for a game like this. That would help speeding up animation work on war dogs, tigers, and such :P

I would like to make a suggestion regarding shield-wearing troops.

It bothers me that when I send them to attack, they walk with the shield on the side, like walking happy around the park, until they engage the enemy and the attack animations starts (which are nice animations IMO)

Is it possible to make a "engaging battle" walking animation where they have their shields on a more aggressive position when they approach to the enemy (or engaging battle)? (like idle stance, with their shields covering the body, but walking forward)

I think this will add realism to the battles and make the movement of troops more cohesive with the environment.

Don't know how difficult this is for programmers though.

Should be easy to do as far as programming is concerned.
