Lord Vader's More Historical Units

This mod aims to complete the rosters by adding existing or custom units to most factions and is a mod i did mainly for myself.
Most unit packs either add a ton of units to a faction, thus giving every faction the same units under a different name and skin. Here, the focus is to expand the existing rosters without taking away the distinct "feel" of every faction. E.g. only Successor States have elite pikemen, no shock cavalry for barbarian (non-steppe) factions. Furthermore, I strongly refrained from adding "fantasy" units like 95% of unit mods do (completely equipped in gold armor, tridents instead of spears, all elite units have cloaks, Arcanii, etc.)

This mod is work in progress and I'm open for suggestions.
