Howto:Missile unit by default no skirmish?

Answer:
It's not possible with 2 exceptions.
1)Only in Historic Battles IF you script it for every unit!
2)You can give them "prec" ability to remove skirmish option, but that'll make them charge after firing one volley.

That's it......

Class: UNIT_SET_SKIRMISH_MODE
Implemented: Yes

I'm a scripting ignoramus so at the risk of sounding stupid.
This seems like a thing I could use , is it?

If you're reading this, I guess you understood what I wanted to ask! It's sometimes difficult to think of a clear thread-title.

I want to set a specific missile unit type (let's say bucellarii...) to have skirmishing disabled by default when you start the battle.

Is this possible? If so, how?
