    You're not alone being a tad patriotic Helmersen ^^

    Easy now... While you're on-line, I've had a go at Ireland... well what does one think?


    Ireland was one of the first flags I changed... I think the quality has really improved!

    heh, first off. I'm not Norwegian, I'm Swedish. Second, what do you mean with ".. due to the Helmersen, Kitsuria uprising" in the release thread? you make it sound like we threatened you ^^;

    But nevertheless it's great you changed back the norwegian flags, atleast the realistic ones stay in AETF. LOVE the Irish flag btw 8D

    however, what do you think about my earlier suggestion at a Naval flag for Tuscany?

    Now how about Gran Colombia?

    the first flag they used was this one:


    of course this wasn't until 1819 but it still would be a bit more realistic, a possibility for AETF?

    Edit: aaargh, I can't make the pic smaller for some reason >.<

    Kitsuria... This is the flag used with the crest in the centre for the land flag. Not for the faction of naval ensign however, that is vanilla.

    srry, didn't realise the one I suggested was just a variation.

    How about this, the modern day naval flag of Colombia has the crest in the middle. So why not put your flag with the crest in the middle as a naval flag and the one with the crest in the corner as a land flag. Also, the nation flags colours isn't matching the land flags.

    Now here's one for Hungary. This nation is a hard one since they never really had their own flag during the period they were in the Austrian Empire. However I found this piece of information about this flag that was used in medieval Hungary:

    "Flags with Árpád Stripes were used in the Middle Ages by the Árpadian Kings of Hungary. The Árpád stripes also appear in the flags of the Angevins and Matthias Corvinus. They were revived and used by the cavallery of Francis II Rákóczi."

    Wikipedia Francis II Rákóczi

    This could give inspiration to new flags for Hungary

    I'm sorry if it has been asked before, but is it possible to add flags from the Napoleonic age into Empire: Total War? There is a "Napoleon: Total Flags" mod, but it's only works with NTW...?

    Mount&Blade gamer? Liked Age of Blackpowder? Well, a new version has been released! Download it here: http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.p...,119530.0.html

    I despite how much i like the US Land Battle flag i prefer the Betsy Rose as a land battle flag as shows the spirit of the revolution. Thats why i am still only using ETF 2.4

    Jackwei,
    You can use the latest ETF and open it up using packfile manager 1.12.
    Open ui/flags/united_states
    Right click on large.tga and delete it. The vanilla flag will be restored, which is the Betsy-Ross flag.

    Napoléon1er,
    I won't be doing Napoleonic Flags for ETW. Sorry.

    I'm a big fan of the Italian States, so I have some suggestions about the flag.

    The new flag is awesome, I like it realy much, but because I am a republican in real life, I like playing with a republic state.
    But when I rebel, my republican flag is still the same.
    This is quite wrong because the flag is a sign of absolute monarchy.

    That's why I made a kind of prototype of the Italian States republic flag:



    This is based on the warflag of the early Italian Republic in the 18th century.
    I Held the tricoulor and the laurel wreath as a sign of being a republic.
    The 'RR' (normaly) stands for 'Republica Romana', pointing at the fact that it is a republic.

    While there was no Italian revolution before Napoleon, I thought they would look to their great ancestors: the Romans, and this is what I came up with.

    For the warflag I chose the real historical warflag from the Italian Republic:



    The text reads 'Roman civil guards'.


    EDIT:

    I found a naval flag!



    I made one from the earliest naval jack I could find.


    Remember that all this flags are for the republic version!

In view of our divine essence, we need only liberty and work; in view of our mortal nature, we need for our direction a guide and a support. A government is not then, as a distinguished economist has said, a necessary ulcer; it is rather the beneficent motive power of all social organisation.
