Hoplites holding their spears wrongly and phalanx spear size

[DCLXVIMRTRVEBLAKKOKKVLTDCLXVI]

Hi guys,

I noticed hoplites are holding their spears at butt spike. Could someone add an extra invisible bone that connects their hands with their spears to hoplite skeletons, animations and models to make them hold their spears closer to the center of the spear? I would also increase the spear to the same length as medium pikes (otherwise their spears look shorter when standing on walls. The latter could be also done for phalangites.

Well, the doru was only 8 feet long--shorter than a short pike.

As to animations: I was wondering if it were not possible to design a new animation for them, by the use of a slinger skeleton.

Here, a bone_weapon can be used, which will let you rotate the spear.
