The issue of unit diversity is now quite old and there are many threads about it. But there is one point missing so long as I saw and read:
There are units in the game given which are not useable / given to choose in all parts of the game!
Sure, the french units of Italy campaign were really other units than that from 1806 on in Europe-/ Coalition campaign, but I'm not talking about this now!
We all are more or less unhappy with the diversity, for example with the british units. Lets take a look in the selection for Great Britain in MP and custom battles, which is totally the same situation in the coalition campaign:
Not really amazing what we have here, no doubt! Where are for example all the foreign troops in british service, starting with the most knwon "Kings German Legion"?
Speculation and discussion that they may come as DLC from CA ... Sorry, but this talking is totally "bullcrap"!
All foreign troops are still inside of the game and playable, but not everywhere!
So lets start with the show of british foreign troops when we take a look in the historic battle of Waterloo in NTW:
1.) Kings German Legion
2.) Kings German Legion - light infantry / riflemen
3.) Brunswick line infantry (death head infantry)
4.) Nassau light infantry / riflemen (Jaegers)
5.) Dutch line infantry
6.) Durch Flanquers
7.) Dutch light Dragoons
Just to make it perfectly clear and understandable:
THIS are not units of a mod, THIS are units from CA in the normal basic game! THIS are units, which are only part of the battle of Waterloo and nowhere else in the game!
Dear guys from CA,
you must still be aware of that there is a great dissatisfaction with the diversity of units in the game by the community and at least of all players!
Why the hell are you doing such a nonsense to put in a historic battle 7 units which are no where else playable than in Waterloo and even not by the player himself?
Guys, these are 7 units and be sure, that if these 7 units in all parts of the game as chooseable - MP, custom battle and Europe-/ Coalition campaign, be sure that many people are more pleased with the diversity of british faction!
Also don't think, that there are only these 7 british units, ... there are much more! You want to have 2 more examples? Ok...
In Trafalgar is the HMS Victory, why only there and not in the rest of the game?
In Borodino you have as French at the right wing a unit "polish line infantry", why only in Borodino and not in the rest of the game?
There are more units guys, but I think you understand now!
So my requirement (demand) is simple:
Make this units playable for all parts of the game and this as soon as possible and of course for free!
Don't even think a second even in your dream about it to give them later as DLC for money! If you do this, your reputation is for 100% dead for ever!
