Just a thought... forgive my ignorance.

Yes they did, they used furs and similar, adopting techniques to keep themselves warm from the local population. So towards the end of the Empire with many of the troops being Germans, many units looked more "barbaric" than "Roman" as we would imagine it anyway. :) But that's out of the time frame of RTW anyway.

But I doubt it's possible to implement separate skins for winter time, but I'm not working on the mod, so I don't really know.
