Why would they?
A picture is worth a thousand words. The details sell the narrative. They wanted it to look like a scene where a barbarian is threatening a trade caravan and the swordsman is rushing to defend it. that's the primary reason the picture exists. If they have included some sort of deceptive Easter egg unit, it is a secondary reason. We have to parse the primary function of the whole picture from the secondary function of the appearance of this mystery unit. To me, the damage to the swordsman is part of the narrative about the caravan needing to be defended, not about revealing the nature of the tomahawk unit.
