In need of model editing assitance

[Vengeance Mk2]

I tweaked a footman with some spikes and gave him the priest's cape. He needs animations. Is there any way to copy animations from the footman and from the priest, merge them together, and add them to this model?

I want him to be able to defend with his shield, attack with his sword, and have a flowing cape. Is this possible without making animations from scratch?

He's saved as a .max file at the moment. I made a custom skeleton for him but I can always import the original skeleton if need be. Trouble is, the importer I have for 3dsMAX does not import the animations correctly...

+rep to anyone with suggestions!

I'm pretty sure it is impossible to perfectly copy the priest's cape to the footman model. The only way I could think of is to copy all the bones and their related sequences and use a global sequence to keep the cape flowing through all the animations. But that can be quite tedious and I recommend you just animate the cape from scratch.
