fight commands in MTW

[flip]

In the LiHorse action page there is 2 fight coordinates:
fight
fight2
They share the same values.
My question:
Is it possible to give 2 instances commands for soldiers in order to use different frames in a bif?
I have 2 animations for fight. Spear, sword.
Does MTW allows to split the fight command in 2 actions like the horse example?

I was wondering this too. You could have your heavy cavalry charge in and smash their lances against the enemy, then they could take out their swords and fight. It'd be beautiful.

Yes , it can be done . I have several units that charge with lances and then fight with swords or axes .
I used to have this for knights too , but they looked weaker to my eyes when they switched to swords {just a visual thing , likely because the weapon is smaller} so I only use it for lesser units .

I have Lithuanian Cavalry useing bows , lance to charge then swords to fight so they are a 3 weapon unit {and match their description better http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-smile.gif} .
