    Default Astra Units

    Hello. I decide to do for fun, some new units for the game I try to be as faithful as possible with the réality history.


    it is an observation that I propose here.
    alone, this unit does not have much of interest.
    my goals are to enjoy myself and make you happy.and to offer my work for the main mods you use them all.
    my textures are royalty free and use. I ask just a small token of thanks.

    thank you to Swiss Halberdier for his mod "unit_pack_compatibility_project_napoleon"
    thank you to l'aigle for its mesh "french plume" and for the inspiration of his work
    thank you to the creators of unitées boards.

    good game

    installation:

    put the file "AstraMod1.1.pack" in your data Game
    put the file "localisation" in your data game
    and use the
    following script "mod "AstraMod1.1.pack";

    locating the file contains: "unit_pack_compatibility_project_napoleon" ( latest version) + the location of my units

    the statistics of the units were revised to have to adapt to the game of origne (version 1.3) or with the DLC.
    potential conflicts with other mods units are possible.
