Cool idea, I once thought at that, too, but was to lazy to do it.
The units are a bit too unrealistic, I think. Too Western. Some units like Boyar Guard, Plăieşi, Viteji, Roşiori, Călăraşi, Pandurii lui Vladimirescu, etc. would be better. And with Turkish/Russian/Indain textures, if you can't make new ones. You can try contacting maxmazi, a good Romanian texturer on this site, or just d-load Gimp (if you don't own Photoshop) and start making them on your own.

BALKAN MOD for Napoleon has been released introducing Romania, Moldavia, Serbia and Croatia.
The presence of a large number of aggressive states on the borders of Principality of Moldova affcted profoundly the army of the state The Moldavian army presented traditional Romanian characteristics combined with Western as well as strong Balkan/Ottoman influences.
The main military categories of the army were:
Boierii Mazilii - lower and medium boyars (nobles), they were convoked by the prince in time of danger, thus lacking in military skill and experience. The were well armed medium-heavy cavalry.
Curtenii - lower boyars, below Boierii Mazilii, they were small functionaries in local and central administration and for centuries formed the backbone of the standing army, but in this epoch, excessive fiscality eroded the role and number of curteni. They were seasoned medium cavalrymen armed with swords and bows.
Călăraşii- free peasants, tasked with supervising and protecting the borders in time of peace, they served on horse in wartime. Well seasoned in the many clashes with Tatar and Ottoman raiders, they were a redutable light cavalry force, armed with lances, curved sowrds.
Dorobanţii (Dărăbanii) were the counterparts of Calarasi, but unlike the former, they served on foot. They formed the main infantry body of the army and were armed with guns and cold weapons (swords probably) and dressed in red uniforms.
Străjerii (Plăieşii in Wallachia) in exchange for fiscal privileges they defended the forts, castles and mountain passes on the western mountain border. Armed with bows, arquebuses or muskets, they fought on foot as light/skirmish infantry, had a very good knowledge of the mountain and forested territory
Vânătorii de Neamţ - they were tasked with protecting the Neamt Castle and the surrounding area. Armed with arquebuses or musket, they fought on foot as elite light/skirmish infantry, had a very good knowledge of the mountain and forested territory
Vânătorii de Curte (Domneşti) first mentioned in the beginning of XVIII century(ante 1714), serving in the guard corps of the prince as guard infantry, from the second part of the century, they are mentioned as guard cavalry (Vânătorii Calare). Considered elite troops, they were dressed in highly decorated red colored uniforms, being armed with firearms
Fustaşii(or Suliţaşii) appear at the end of XVII century and beginning of XVIII century, were a part of principal guard, armed with long spears.
Copii de Casă (Icioglanii or Paici/squire) founded at the end of XVII century as a noblemen royal guard, by the middle of the century it becomes the personal guard of the prince in wartime.
Panţirii - first attested in 1728-1729, first as infantry, later (after 1737) as cavalry. Equipped with long chain mail, metal helmet, bows of firearms, were very effective against Tatars.
Joimiri rosii - founded after 1726 as guard cavalry, had a red bonnet and red clothes.
Slujitorii - created in mid XVIII century, they served as light cavalry on permanent basis, in weekly shifts. By the end of XVIII they become one of the largest cavalry corps in the army
Mercenaries (Lefegii)
Seimenii - mercenaries recruited from Balkan Christian people(Serbs, Greeks, Bulgarians etc) starting with mid XVII century. They were armed with firearms and fought both on foot (Seimenii ageşti) or on horse (Seimenii hătmaneşti and hăneşti).
Drăgani - mercenaries armed like Western Dragoons
Cazacii - Cossack light cavalry
Arnăuţii - Albanian mercenaries, appear after 1741 as separate military category. They were used at the court (as guard cavalry, later also guard infantry) as well as garrisons in large towns and fortifications. Thez were armed with good quality firearms.
