Update : Do you have any new about this @CreativeAssembly ?

I'll follow up and ask. It's something we'd always like to do, but it can be tricky for our Animation team to find time to add this with all the other awesome and complex animations they're often busy setting up for big monsters and other content. 

But i agree, this is defo one i'll ask about too :)

Yes really thank you @CA_Archimedes#9221 !

It would be nice to get this, because some units reload their fireguns, and others not, so it looks a bit weird. One more time, modders were able to do this, so I am sure you are able too ! :)

Sigh if you are gonna ask about this asthetic stuff, why don't you also ask about functinoal animation issues?

1. Dueling animations specially ones as in carno where he always end with its butt making it useless or mutanant rat orger charge animation where it will always miss

2, on the move attack animations , this is literally why chasing with not hounds units take forver to kill a routing unit

3. Cold one chariots , seeker chariots missing attack animations to  mounts

4. Charge animations for sisters of slaughter , depth guard ending models stuck way too deep in enemy formations getting them killed

5. the janky ass broken shit anitmation of coatl and dragon sibs dragon form

...etc.

there is hell of long list of stuff you need to do before worrying about asthetics?

I was hoping ToD would have been the perfect opportunity to add the missing Empire reloading animations, but no. The problem just got worse with the new gunpowder units missing them as well. 

Pfff it's a shame ! Especially when you see gunpowder units of Chaos Dwarves who got a reloading animation... And that modders are able to do it, but not a major game studio like CA... -_-
