So, MTW has the most detailed spites of any Total War game.
Precisely. If you view a unit from a certain height in RTW and then pan around the battlefield above that unit. You can see the 3D models for individual men turning into the blurry sprites as you do so. With mercenary units this is more obvious as the green of the 3D models is replaced by the rough equivalent of the faction colour.
