Very nice work!

It's a shame there are no fringed epaulettes model. It's a staple of the French army of the period.

Alright U.S. Infantry re-textured.

"Forward Irish Brigade!"

Thats absolutly awesome! The colors are perfect, right choice!!
Is it possible to add these guys as marines on the US ironclad? And maybe a new sailor model for the deck crew?
Like your Russian Imperial Marines would be great for that crew!

[Kommandant Conn]

Its not possible to add new uniform models in the game, so I think its a bit hard to get in zouaves. Don't know if there are vanilla jackets and baggy pants, which can be used.

@ Kreiglord

I will start a small "civil war" unit selection next week, so you will see our civil war story continued with shogun 2

Zouaves could work, actually, if it's possible to use the head models from the Portuguese/Dutch traders from vanilla Shogun 2. I'm pretty sure the spear levy/levy infantry use some baggy pants-esque models.

[General Cornwallis]

@Hinkel: It should be possible to add them!

Alright here are the redone Royal Marine Artillery and my personal favorite, new Rifle Brigade

General Cornwallis, while browsing through your AMAZING units, an idea popped into my head. The Russo-Japanese war! Basically, the Japanese and the Russians fought over Korea, Japan, and Manchuria in a series of battles between 1904 and 1905. You can read more about this by going here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russo-Japanese_War

Now back to my point, even though this war was about 25 years after the game itself, much technolgy is still the same. If you have already created some Russian units, that leads me to believe that there is a Russian nation as well. If there already is a Russian Nation, then all that is left is to add some more time apporopriate Russian Units and Russian Ships. I will gladly provide you with links, paintings, and pictures. Just tell me what you think. Heck! I even had an ancenctor who fought in that war. (Russian side )

So just reply here or message me if you are interested and we could get started.

Thank you for your time,

[General Cornwallis]

@tzar - That is very interesting indeed, and I have previously thought of it. I just don't have the time to construct a full mod right now, unfortunately.

Alright here is the re-done French Infanterie de la Ligne in the 1860 Second Empire uniform

[tzarmarko]

Understandable Keep up the good workj though! Also, when are these going to be released? And when they are going to be released, will they be recruitable in the campaign or only custom battles?
tzarmarko

[General Cornwallis]

They'll be recruitable at the tading ports- Franco-Russian, British/Imperial-Prusso-Spanish-Dutch, and American for now in campaign and in custom battles.

These units will be the first batch, with further releases to follow focusing on more cavalry and artillery, and other infantry units. As soon as I finish up the units cards it will be ready.

Here are the new Chasseurs a Pied:

[Lokgar]

Well, we know there is no Pickelhauben hat model, but surely you could =
And oh, Is there a proper broad-rimmed hat for The U.S. Cavalry?

You mean the Stetsons?

Firstly, great mod but I have two questions;
I've installed it but.....
1. The British Infantry seem to be wearing the normal Marine Kepi like hat, not the one in your pics.

2. Why are the Royal Marine Artillery only two guns not four, even on ultra?

Other than that, as I said great mod!

[miguelmm]

Great mod! but, why the royal marine artillery have katanas instead of sabers?

[Sentrywatch]

Does this work with Darthmod? Sorry I'm new to Shogun 2 mods.

[tzarmarko]

I'm back

So I was scouring the Internet for different regiments and heres what I got:


Preobrazhensky Regiment (Russia) (infantry)

Caucasus Line Cossack Infantry (Russia) (demountable cavalry)

Also I have a suggestion, make the Russians be recruitable in French trading ports instead of british. Since the Russians greatly disliked the British but greatly admired the French.

[stufu]

+1 good idea!!!

[stufu]

Glad to see the Russians representing.

If you want to use 'colonial looking' units, I'd suggest Turkestan units for the Russians. They do have rather snazzy uniforms, I think:

Officer:

Regular:

The Bukhara campaign (I believe):

+1 impressive research thx!

[stufu]

i have a trouble! mod not working - no new units! strange - place mod in my data folder and add a user.script ? but nothing happened!

[General Cornwallis]

@stufu: Are you sure you entered the correct entry into your user script that I posted on the first page?

@Tzarmarko: I'll look into seeing what I can create, I was thinking of adding a few more U.S. units first for the next release given they didn't recieve the most love this release.

As for the ports, I thought I had set the Russians to French trade ports? Are they coming up recruitable at the British port? I had wanted it to represent the increasingly friendly relationship between France and Russia before the 1894 alliance

@sentrywatch: It should work I think, but the stats are different as mine are not based off Darth's but vanilla.

@miguel: I thought they looked more appropriate than the rather cavalry esque sabres, more alike naval dirks, but I am debating switching them.

@Albion: Last minute change, the tropical cap model wasn't working correctly with the heads and they were coming through, so in the meantime I have them in their English service caps with the 24th's plate.

For the artillery, I didn't want them to be a full battery of four given they are naval artillery, so they are highly accurate and powerful, with heightened melee as they are marines but only 2 guns per battery. You'll find they pack quite a punch!

[Albion Dude]

Ahh ok, thanks for clearing that up....I thought with the hats I had messed something up!

I love the Marine artillery even though they have less guns because of the changes you mentioned.

Keep up the good work sir!
