[OneManShow]

OMS NAPOLEONIC TOTAL WAR

After many months of work, i finally release my mod, with more than 100 Napoleonic units, made for both campaign and battles.

I have tried to respect the historic realism, so this is some factions particularities :

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

British have best bust expensive infantry, weak cavalry. Only facion starting with mass fire cause they were very disciplined.

France have medium infantry but a huge imperial grenadiers and the best but expensive cavalry

Russia have cheap soldiers, poor at shooting, good in hands to hands, and basic units have more soldiers

Spain have weak army but they can hide everywhere

Prussia have many cheap soldiers

Games specifity

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Napoleonic skins for all europeans major factions, more than 100 Napoleonic units !

-Basic size for line infantry is 320, and cavalry is 160

-Some units have various weapons like pistol for cuirassiers, pistol and axe for militia ......

-Double pistol weapon added, some units have 2 shoots pistol before to charge ennemy.

-Napoleonic drum sound

-First technologies will be researched faster

-Minor factions soldiers better than playable faction, higher difficulty to conquer them

-Added 2 units for the united states from the early 1800's

-Real bearer flag when in battle

-Citizens & Generals skins changed

-Platoons fire removed

To come

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Im waiting for your impressions, there are unfinished things like Artilley who keeps his vanilla skins.

I didnt edit startpos.esf, so vanilla units will spawn as usual, same for campaign flag. But after some turns, no more vanilla units remaining.

Add some units too, and may be modify technology tree too.

Thanks

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Even if i designed this mod alone i have to tell a big thanks to all peoples who answered my questions or encourage me. Especialy Mooncabblage, Erasmus77,Bladerunner,General and the others !

Congratulations, my friend. Fantastic mod.

Any screenshots?

Fantasic Job and I know it must of taken you a long time!
But I'm sorry to say the bad side;
The gameplay is in French. When I started all the game map options were in French and so were unit details.
Secondly, the units a ok. Not perfect. Units like fusilers and calavry where fine but the grenadiers and some of the uniform detail was aweful. Maybe you should wait until CA release a Napoleonic extension or a model convertor.
And lastly, the unit cards aren't so good. I've seen those pictures on the net 1000's of times. You can get graphic artist on this site to draw units cards up for you!

So I very sorry if I hurt you but someone had to say the bad stuff.

But the units were pretty good. A little more work needs to be done on the units uniforms so they don't appear flat. But other wise it was great. I would like to see this as a seperate mod to ETW. Maybe you could even join the the Lordz Modding Community and help them with their new mod forr ETW called 'Napoleonic Total War 3' Have you ever played Napoleonic toal War 2 for Rome. That was the perfect Napoleonic experience game up to date. I'm sure the Lordz would love to have you as a member. to visit go to http://www.thelordz.org and then go to the forum

Turns everything to French, as has been said, but otherwise pretty good. I cant say I blame you for doing the uniforms the way you did, doing them the regular way would have taken forever for the amount of work you had.

[totalwarfreek321]

Hey Ive been waiting for a mod like this for a long time, great job! One thing, i noticed that most of the Great Britain units, like the coldstream guard and the grendiers have those weird hats that the austrian grenzers have. Is it possible to make them have the regular hat of the napoleanic era , i think its called the shaka or something sry i dnt really know.

thanks again, awesome mod!

[Major Darling]

some screenshots maybe before I download

i think its called the shaka or something sry i dnt really know.

Damn nobody told me the game was in French and i forgot that, u can get english version there : http://www.twcenter.net/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=48746&d=1248019422
DELETE the omsNTW_loc_fr.pack file if u want to install the English version.

Marshal u have to understand definitely that there wont have any model converter for ETW. CA have never given a such converter to the community but its always the community who have created his own tools. CA want only money, if they give us a model converter they wont be able to sell any futures add-ons or even games, because everybody will play free mod instead of their crap bugged games who cost 50€. This is why they locked their DLC units and we cant mod them. There are Napoleonics units style in DLC like the swiss grenadiers, american marines, 2nd hussards, polish & austrian grenadiers but strangely all those units are locked. The reason is easy to understand, they will release a Napoleonic game next year it will cost 50€ it will be half finished, a bugged crap like ETW but with a great advertising campaign to sell it to maximum peoples. Its the only thing that Sega do very well. So, i tried to make a mod who will enable to play Napoleonic era now, u can play or u can wait for the next SEGA piece of .

I contacted Lordz members many times on this forum, never got an answer. I tried to join their forum but they never validated my account.....
They are making maps, and probably trying to create a model converter but no NTW3 will show up without a model converter. And even with it, im not sure new models will be allowed by the ETW engine cause CA protect it.
Anyways, ur post was constructive and i'm not angry with you

[heinacgg]

the best mod ... super !!!

great!!! this is exactly my opinion ...

totally agree with you!!!
+rep (also for you fantastic job)

[Chevalier IX]

Absolutely spectacular work,especially considering the limited resources at your disposal(lack of model convertor and what not)the uniforms are spot on and the atmosphere is perfectly recreated for our first taste of the battlefields of napoleon running on the Empire engine.I commend your hard work and dilligence and eagerly look forward to updates to this already superb effort

Edit:I would suggest lowering unit costs so as to not only represent the levee en masse that was put into place during this era but also to allow for the enormous conflicts that took place during the era,allowing for both the Player and AI to field more,Larger armies vs what was recruited during the vanilla time frame which was as seen an era of relatively limited warfare(despite the presence of several large and decisive battles)
