Hi, basically some of you if not all will now have realised my only goal in this game now is to change all the drummers of the european and colonial drummers, yes I just hate the christmas hat look, so is anybody qilling to mod everysingle drummer? for cavalry? and infantry? light infantry etc.. ??.

I was simply going to wait for napoleon total war, but unfortunately in the images i noticed the old style drummers O_O why?!! it's 100 years after the original E: TW start date lol anyway, just tel me if there are any mods out oor coming out or any of you are planning to release to basically change all vanilla drummers

Apparently I am afraid those drummers in ETW are wearing the uniforms of French Dummer's during the French Revolution Pre-1812 Uniform reforms. I cannot seem to find a drummer with a tri-corn?

Yes this sounds great, those Christmas hats need to go..

British drummers should have the grenadier style hat at least, But wasn't it a bit smaller than that?

There have been drummers with bearskins made by 'Kave-In' for the British and are available in the AWI mod.

Edit: Atm I'm working on a British reskin and just by removing the beard the drummers look better. Once the reskin is done I may make a mod version with more regt's and better drummers

Sir Digby, nice drummer coat btw, but I notice your redcoats haven't got cross straps on them?? why is this when I have downloaded a mod containing your name which is rather marvolous, it adds two cross straps for all, and i mean ll, infantry. That's why i have been enquiring into whther their waaws a mod that could auto change all drummers, as if it is your mod changes all straps to the X look on infantry...

If you don't know what I mean, and you haven't released this mod, tell me and I will make it public

Your right mate the X-strap patch was made by Ahiga and was in my & his mod. The reason u don't see it in this picture is that I'd taken alot of mods out while testing out the new skin is all

Im pretty sure the drummers you've seen in the screenshots are placeholders, not the final drummer you'll see at release.

It's really easy to make your own command groups with the DB editor. Just go into battle_personalities_tables/battle_personalities, in "edit" click "add row", and then you get to spcify the model, equipment theme, role, etc of your new musician/standard bearer/officer.
