[DEI] Celtic Models Extravaganza

Salve!

Knocked up a quick little pack to introduce a bit more variation and authenticity to most of the Celtic units in Divide et Impera;

- Far greater variation of helmets, crests and feathers across the board, including models from the excellent Roman Models Extravaganza mod pack (incidentally, basically all of the helmets designs worn by Caesarean Roman soldiers were invented by the Gauls).
- Greatly reduced the amount of clothing appearing in "faction colours" (a f*cking bugbear of mine in all CA games).
- Tartan patterned trousers for all - they're quintessentially Celtic and feature heavily in artistic depictions of their warriors.
- No more loincloths for the naked units, screaming into battle with their d*cks swanging in the wind was the entire point. Celts didn't wear loincloths.
- Completely nerfed those goatee beards from Celtic units. They've always looked weird and all of the contemporary accounts of Celtic warriors depict them with moustaches.
- Swapped out the dull leather cuirasses with some nice colourful linothorax (Celtic warriors were infamous posers and preeners, I can't see them ever settling for undyed leather when they could peacock in something brighter).

Everything in this pack (with the exception of a few quick texture edits I've made) are the work of their incredibly talented creators. Massive props to Celticus, Hloeric, noniac, Benjin, the Divide et Impera and True Legions teams (and of course the legenday Kaziel) for breathing new life into Rome 2 and I'm really looking forward to seeing what they create next.
Also big thanks to the Fall Of The Eagles mod for Attila - Meloncat, Win Butler, Dresden, 1stEPIGunny, Aurelinus and anyone else who has contributed to that mod, again, if you see your work in this pack lemme know and I'll whack you in the credits.

Owing to the HUGE numbers of Celtic units in the game, I've approached this by editing the variantmeshes as opposed to making custom versions of every unit - there will be some clipping, there will probably be some units who haven't fully benefitted from this pack. It is what it is.
Hit me up if you find any glaring bugs or issues.

Enjoy!
