[WOTC] Recruitable & Trainable Templars 2.0

Commander, I am in awe at the amount of individuals touched psionically since the first war. Perhaps Dr. Vehlen's experiments in radiating every soldier she could find with psionic energy led to this. I do not believe she could have predicted this outcome...
- Dr. Richard Tygan

Author's Note: This mod has a decent number of reported discrepancies related to auto-pistol firing animations. Subscriber beware as a fix is unfortunately not planned at this time.

Many of the amazing characters available on the workshop align closely to the combat style of a templar. However, due to the constraints of the faction system, you could potentially never see your favorite character recruited into your campaign. This aims to alleviate that concern in order to better celebrate a varied character pool.

• Rookies can be trained as templars in the GTS.
  
• Rookies can be naturally promoted to templars.
  
• All abilities, skills, and weapons will be reflective of the traditional templar.
  
• The Templar faction itself remains untouched.

Templar Animations have been implemented! All abilities and animations - even the Templar's stance and run - will align appropriately to the traditional Templar. (Please note, existing characters with this class will not be updated. A new campaign may be required.)

Please note, despite the above point - there are reported issues related to pistol and barracks animations. I apologize!

This will seamlessly integrate into a current or new campaign. I recommend using Use My Class to correctly pull from your character pool.

Please let me know if you encounter any bugs or discrepancies. I hope you enjoy!
