M2TW mod that makes units act like RTW in combat?

[Holycannoli]

I recently started a new RTW game, and forgot how units all try to engage the enemy in combat, vs M2TW where only the front units will engage and the rest will wait their turn behind.

I went back to my current M2TW game and it was very annoying how I had to order my units to run through the enemy to get them all to engage. You get used to it I guess but it's so much better in RTW, and I feel I can make better use of two-handed units if they didn't insist on fighting the enemy one on one.

Does a simple mod exist that makes units behave like they did in RTW? One that will make them break rank and all try to engage each other?

It's also very annoying not being able to register at totalwar.com. The Sign Up link doesn't work, and I used to be registered. I have to ask this here.

EDIT: I'm not asking for total conversion mods or mods that alter anything else. I'm thinking it's an AI mod that's needed?

That's hardcoded into the engine, so no.

To expand on the above post, it isn't possible because of how the graphics engine is structured. In RTW, the unit graphics fighting weren't actualy doing anything, they simply represented the results that the combat engine decided upon. In MTW2 the units actualy are fighting by running through a set of animations. The graphics engine has to limit only the first row to engage otherwise the engine would get confused as combat can only be one on one.

Sorry if that made no sense. Simply put, due to differences in graphics engines and how animations work, it is impossible.
