Poster provided by Strudog, give him some rep!
First of all, special thanks to Swiss Halberdier for inspiring me to make this mod. I would also like to thank Erasmus777 for helping me find my way around in the world of modding, so thanks, you guys. Also, thank you Toon Total War for allowing me to use your Fusilliers Von Lossberg skin and Strudog for the poster.
The goal of this mod is to firstly reduce the amount of unique units France and Britain have by giving similar units to other factions. Secondly is to add more flavor (both historial and non) to other factions, playable or non. So here we go. If there are any problems with the mod like missing text, some factions not getting certain units I said they would or anything else, PM me or post it in this thread.
The units:
Elite Infantry: The equivalent to Coldstream guards that are availiable to ALL EUROPEAN factions.
Scots Guard: Equivalent to Royal Escossios for ALL CATHOLIC factions.
Breechloading Riflemen: Light infantry armed in the same rifles used by Ferguson Riflemen, availiable to ALL EUROPEAN factions except Great Britain.
Streltsy Musketmen: This unit is for availiable to RUSSIA and is a militia unit. Historically, the word "Streltsy" in Russian means "shooter", the Streltsy axemen in the vanilla game don't have guns, so I have made an alternate unit to use instead of the axemen armed with historically correct muskets.
Mercenary Jaegers: Light infantry mercenaries who are made up of civillian hunters who have honed their skills in the Black Forest of Germany. Availiable to ALL EUROPEAN FACTIONS after Light Infantry Doctrine has been researched. (Age of Empires 3 players will get why they look that way )
Hessian Fusilliers: Famous mercenary troops hailing from various German states, especially Hesse-Kassel and Hesse-Hanau. They were used in the American revolution. Availiable to ALL EUROPEAN FACTIONS EXCEPT THE GERMAN STATES! Based off the fusilliers Von Lossberg, a historical regiment that served furing the American Revolutionary War. Skin provided by Toon Total War, so rep him! This can also be found in Toon Total War's American Revolutionary Mod on the historical regiment as a unit. The mod also boasts a huge amount of historic regiments of the Hessians, Brits and Americans.
New units soon to come:
There are also surprise units, check the Italian factions' and Sweden's unit roster.
