@ Soult, next time I can get into contact with Beale I'll discuss that with him. It's hard when lives on the other side of the world.

Not to be a nit picker, but the artillerymen's hat of the Italian campaign gun crews are totally wrong, the corsican hat was introduced (for a very short time) only in 1806. During the Italian campaign the austrian artillerymen used a tricorn hat, (the one used by the italian campaign austrian dragoons is just perfect) The artillery officer is OK as it is now!

cheers!

maybe the devs have tried to model the round brimmed hat used by some crews during the late revolutionary wars. in this case it would be correct. But the vast majority of the artillery still used the flat-fronted tricorn.

Well everything will probably be most splendid. Thanks for the info chaps.

If they're historic for the time, we'll keep them. But at the moment they're fairly low on our list. Currently our first priority for minors are Spain, Bavaria and Poland. Most others are rather out of the way and Spain was a major player in the 1st Coalition.

I have a book by Manuel Ribeiro Rodrigues with lots of pictures of Portuguese uniforms in this period and I can share them with the modders if they want to include them (I have permission from the author to share them). Portugal participated in the War of the Pyrenees on the side of Spain in 1793-5.

[EmperorBatman999]

Yes that would be great Geronimo.

Heh wow you need a new online translator Ensis1410!
Well we're definately having the Commonwealth of Poland-Lithuania from Empire Total War return for this mod. unlike the emergent faction under Napoleons control in NTW.

Just to pre-warn some of you, particually Poland fans, Poland isn't on the campaign yet, we didn't have the ability or time to add it, but it will defintly be there by the next release, or even a patch.

Cheers, MB

I've seen it and I must admit the units looks quite decent.
Though I prefer NTW, it has more graphical power, less bugs etc.
Also... in NTW wigs can be added And personally the wigs give me more a 18th century feeling.

Yeah we have them present, but are the same as vanilla at the moment. its easy to make them playable if need be though at some point.

We plan on avoiding ETW-style textures. What we want to do is make 18th century uniforms with NTW's uniform system, which is much more flexible and prettier.

I agree, the NTW textures are superior to those of ETW.
You would notice the difference when using ETW texture/units against the NTW texture/units.

We start pre-release BETA testing now!
