UPDATE: January 2, 2018:
I have been working on cleaning up a variety of things from maps to icons to uniforms and far more. Between spontaneously corrupting files.. damn you PackFileManager and the Atlas tool... anyway.... I have added the Union III Corps to the game with several unique units.
- Excelsior Brigade, each for four regiments represented: 70th and 72nd New York in standard 'blue' and the 73rd and 74th New York in their respective Zouave uniforms. *see page 11 for images*
- 114th Pennsylvania "Collis's Zouaves"
- III Corps leaders
Lots of other tweaks and changes across just about every aspect.
I am targeting the week of JANUARY 15th for the release.

What I need:
- Desperate help with graphics. I need existing content upgraded; mainly alpha layers corrected. Possibly new uniforms/tweaks.
- If you are willing and most of all, CAPABLE to help with fixing up the uniform graphic files, crack the existing pack file and take a shot. Please contact me and let me know you are working on a new file and we'll coordinate.
More information coming as I can update you. There's a lot of work ahead and if things cooperate, a reasonable time frame to release more. Beta testers will be welcome. Contact me.
More soon!
Thanks,
Slyk
