So I think, it would be good to have a unit of let's say 20 - 40 woman, without weapons (so they can't fight) and very poor moral (so they can't even engage the fight - if they are attacked they flee or better they are constant in skirmish-mode). the only advantage of having these woman on the field would be big moral bonus (and may be an attack and charge bonus) to all germanic warrior near to them (or on the battlefield)
    We are making a mod about combat, we generally don't model non-combatants on the battlefield. The Germanic units will have morale bonuses where appropriate. Though this generally applies more to the baritus than adding women on the battlefield.

    Hah, you are a liar! I don't speak German, I only use phrases from video games, hehe! "Schnell! Los!!" Your English, however, is wonderful.

    You should tell your girlfriend that she doesn't have to leave our chats, we don't mind!! Tell her "Guten Tag!" from me!
