Heartbraker's Light Infantry Standard Bearer Mod V1 (5/11/2010)

[Heartbraker]

I have created a mod that gives light infantry standard bearers. I always keep light infantry on the line and never use them as skirmishers, and so it has always bugged me that they don't have standards. Standard bearers have been added to all light infantry in the game. Skirmishers such as jaegers and riflemen still do not have standard bearers as they do not fight in a line of battle. The flags in the below pictures are a part of the Napoleon Total Flags 2.0 mod.

Unfortunately I cannot update this mod until a new version of the Pack File Manager is released.

I have two versions of the mod. One has my tighter formation mod built in and the other has vanilla formation spacing. Also, check out my Custom Battle Unit and Faction Unlocker.

GOod work! The same should be done for cavalry!



flags for cavalry were smaller than the infantry's ones.

Great Idea but it doesn’t seem to work for me. I use NER I wonder is that the problem.

Fantastic! My Light infantry are always my flank companies so this is much needed

My mod edits the unit_stats_land table, and because of this it may be incompatible with other mods that edit this table. What you can try to do is remove the units_stats_land table from my mod and add euro_standard_bearer or ottoman_standard_bearer in the standard bearer cell for all the light infantry on the NER units_stats_land table.

Thank you for the compliments panzershreck and Dynamo11.

Flank companies were line infantry regiments not light infantry

Flank companies were line infantry regiments not light infantry

Yes I know... I meant I put them on my flanks, no need to be so arsey

Flank companies were line infantry regiments not light infantry

Actually the Light Regiments were on the left of the line and the Grenadiers on the right

Did light infantry used flags, can anyone verify this? an image would be great.
