French Hussars

Sorry I had to start this forum but I did not see any French Hussars in the roster units. Did anyone else see them? I mean how can you forget a type of cavalry that was the eyes and ears of the French army and consisted for 13 regiments. There uniforms were beautiful and they were so great troops who not only fought in Europe and Russia, but even in the Peninsular war. I understand why they put in Chasseurs a Cheval since they were more numerous light cavalry but even in ETW we got Hussars from such nations as Prussia.

Even with some minor uniform things that are wrong such as the French arty having white piping instead of the red piping around the lapel like they should but I can live with that, but the French without Hussars I mean come on man

No doubt they will make us buy them in a DLC

It was a unit rooster from a beta, so they will probably be included into the full game

Perhaps they are in the Elite Regiment pack included in the Imperial Edition.

They were not in the Elite unit roster. I guess no one else finds it annoying they are not in the game roster.

i thought i saw them in the pics, check the second cav on the left, they've got the same hussar hats as in Empire.

Not to be rude but if you compare British Grenadiers to French Hussars and their use in real battles then there is no comparison. The French Hussars fought in every major battle in the Napoleonic war so they were pretty legit and well know unit.

The hussars are only for Austria and Britain in the DLC

this sucks, I hope it's just for balancing and Hussars are availible in the SP (a napoleonic game is kinda hard to balance)

They might be in the campaign, as the GC includes a lot of units not present in the MP

However, if they aren't, then it's largely down to the gameplay. They've tried to diversify each army (hence why the British have no grenadiers (they weren't that notable in comparison to other British regiments of the time) so the French probably don't get them because other armies have them

Pretty poor excuse, but, alas, we can always turn to the mods...again...again

Good man! A shame they are in the 1815 uniform which is not as fancy as the earlier versions, but still good find!

Just in case no one understand why they are Veterans on AWI well this regiment represents Lauzun Legions who served in America under French command.

If this is what you are looking for it's from the Elite Regiment pack.

High res.

They should add in Lasalle's hussars. best ever.
