Those are just a few different units placed on the same spot to create the non-uniform unit look. Sadly, it's not possible in RTW to make such units, but in M2TW this feature was added, so you can expect EB2 will make good use of it.

The next release for EB will be based off of M2TW? So we should expect it in 2 years if thats the case?
