Thread: 95th Rifles to be included?

  1. #1

    Default 95th Rifles to be included?

    Hey all, I have always loved this period, then I watched the whole Sharpe series, and fell even more in love lol

    Just wondering if CA will include a form of riflemen unit with the awesome green jackets, or will this be left to modders?

    Hmm.. this reminds me, will there be picket units like in the series, e.g. 2 highly skilled riflemen shooting from trees etc?

    picket units, or snipers would have to take the place of assassins wouldn't you think so?

    Maybe the British will gain riflemen after the Americans revolt. The British started using riflemen after seeing the effectiveness of the American Riflemen.

    i don't know that they would add specific regiments to the game...it's probably like all other CA games where you just recruit unit types and assemble them into armies

    rep me if you like my posts, and it's highly likely you'll get some back

    They will probably have British Riflemen (with Bakers) as a late game Skirmishing unit. That is how I would do it at least.

    Maybe they will do the 60th instead of the 95th?

    This is a half-truth. Riflemen were used during the English civil wars as snipers during sieges.

    Yes, they will have Greenjackets. You can see them in the Land Battles video. You can also see them at the very end of the Campaign Map video.

    Yes, but you will probably need to research the technology of rifles. Something tells me that a bunch of the higher levels will require such investments.

    Royal Marines, Blackwatch ... there are a whole list of regiments that should be included. If NTW can and Empire cannie that would be... naff, pathetic and possibly the death of CA

    Huzzah!

    Maybe they will have "Roger's Rangers" included for the British.

    They'll probably have Chasseurs for France, and plain old Baker Riflemen for the English. Probably be like the Sherwood Archers in M2:TW

    Still, I will absolutely love setting Ambushes with the green jacketd

    Seeing these anachronisms fighting next to each other really makes me want either the 95th rifles out of the game or uniform upgrades...

    It may be just me, but in what way are the Prussian 1st, 2nd and 42nd regiments equal to the 95th Rifles?

    The 95th Rifles were used as light infantry skirmishers/scouts in woods etc. I wouldn't count them as regular line infantry units.
