Editing units are FUN!

OK, so thanks to you guys I now know how to edit weapons (i.e., make them shorter or longer or whatever) and today I just learned how to ADD or give a weapon/armor to a unit! I'm getting hooked on this... I gotta play more R:TW and stop editing stuff!!!

What are these gray things around the shield? Is this what the "alpha" stuff is about? How do I get rid of it?



Thanks!
