Are there any Macedonia phalanx animations? [Warning: large images inside]

I've been looking for animations similar to a Macedonian phalanx, like the following:

Spoiler

Note that both hands are used, so in reality the shields are actually modded in as gloves.

This is the current way it looks without the correct animation.

And someone did this animation, which looks pretty good but it has not been uploaded or anything as far as I know.

I'm unsure if any such animations exist in game so you amy need to create them yourself. Also if you use shields as a glove model they won't be able to block arrows or attacks whatsoever unfortunately.

True. He could add a sceneprop to the agent's item bone attached to be the size of the shield though, allowing it to block and such

I don't mind the blocking, I simply add body armor to the shield. Unless there's a way for the shield to block arrows without the soldier having to actually block, then I would try. But it's pretty much not that important, the correct animations are the important ones.

Maybe use it as a lance

If you remove the thrust_onehanded_lance itemflag then they'll only thrust with two hands, which replicates that style of fighting.

i'm new to thia but can't he do an animation that maintains the shield but in the animation puts the shield like he wants to appears that the lance is being grabbed by two hands but actually in the coding is only by one?

Check out Bello Civili, i created decent enough phalanxes for that.
