Hello to all, i'm making a suggestion in to put the Brazil in mod.
I know that don't there capacity to put Brazil as a nation playable, but at least in custom battle or recrutable units.
Historically, Brazil didn't have a direct conflict on western front, but limited the air (patrols) and medics (operation that ocurred in France, 1918) operations. Also, been reported brazilian officers that had combated, as in case the lieutenent José Pessoa.
However, the Brazil had a active war in Atlantic to intercept the actions from germans u-boat, the DNOG ( Naval Division in War Operations - in english) led by counter admiral Pedro Max Fernando Frontin, was a naval division brazilian that had combated in Atlantic; that was incorporated british fleet in Gibraltar.
Well, here go some images from brazilian army of 1914~1918:

Khaki + "British" infantry cap + short coat = World War I standard? They certainly weren't very original back then.
PS. I like the early-late possibilities though. Most of the uniforms portrayed can actually be made with the current (unreleased) work.

UNDER THE PROUD PATRONAGE OF ABBEWS According to this poll, 80%* of TGW fans agree that "The mod team is devilishly handsome" *as of 12/10
alot of reasons no, one reason: I don't know how to put it. ROFL
And don't start with brazil in war, i am brazilian and the brazil didn't send any soldier, only medics, both civil and military. And what about Brazil in seas? It didn't sunk any navy, all brazilians casualities were from sickness, not the war.
Anyways, good luck...
Good to see more Brazilians here, maybe we set up a team to represent our country in an improved SUB-mod. In The Great war Brazil don´t had no ownership in the campaign but it would be nice to see him in custom battles! + Rep
