[PunitorMaximus]

yeah you read right: here you can suggest units which are NOT already in the mod!
pls check this preview thread properly BEFORE you post info!
http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=513577
what to do to see your suggestion in the modding progress thread a few days later:
write a short description about the unit type(infantry, cavalry, etc.), the use, the nation they fought for, the regions they´re coming from, weapons, the timeframe in which they served and ofcourse, the uniform!
considering uniform:
i need a COLOUR picture or an example for the uniforms colour (maybe you got a hat in the same colour, dunno, sth). also important is the timeframe!

now you just can hope and pray that punitor will accept your request

Cheers!

Alright.... here is ComnenusDerOne with ideas.

1) Bulgarian Opalcenie unit (you got two bulgarian infantry units with the same model, one of these units can be remodelled as Opalcenie while the other being the regulars). Enjoy the photo
And don't forget the Opanci boots for the Bulgarians, they were wearing them even more than we did.

2) Armenian Fedayi unit for (christian only if possible) owner of Armenia and Armenian faction if existant. Pic1.Pic 2.Pic 3.
All these are Fedayi from the Tashnag Cutyun, the revolutionary commitee.

[PunitorMaximus]

good images, but i´d need description of use, time of service, training, place of service, etc

[ComnenusTheOne]

1)you got a colour pic of this olpachenije uniform?

Yes, same with the regular infantry except very dark brown or black colored headwear and whatever pants they could find. And opankers instead of boots (well Buls didnt issue military boots to anything less than cavalry units or higher than lieutenant officers, so infantry and artillery get opankers).

Cheers for Hayastan.

The Armenian lands resemble Afghanistan... highland, scorched earth, rough hills and alot of heat. Even a modernised army has serious trouble trying to take over such a territory. And the Azeris have already got a black eye because of Karabakh, plus the Armenian officers are trained in the academy in Athens, so they are up to date with every modern warfare doctrine AND they got Greece as military advisor and supporter. If the Azeris attack Armenia, they are gonna have a bad time.

The headgear looks very similar to a Cossack fur hat so yeah, you can use one like that.

[PunitorMaximus]

simply recoloring of the regular model, right?

Unit info:
Wiki:
During World War I veteran Marines served a central role in the late American entry into the conflict. Unlike the Army, the Marine Corps had a deep pool of officers and NCOs with battle experience, and experienced a smaller expansion. Here, the Marines fought their famed battle at Belleau Wood, creating the Marines' reputation in modern history. While its previous expeditionary experiences had not earned it much acclaim in the Western world, the Marines' ferocity and toughness in France earned them the respect of the Germans, who rated them ofstormtrooper quality. Though Marines and American media reported that Germans had nicknamed them Teufel Hunden as meaning "Devil Dogs", there is no evidence of this in German records (as Teufelshunde would be the proper German phrase), nevertheless, the name stuck.[40] The Corps had entered the war with 511 officers and 13,214 enlisted personnel, and by 11 November 1918 had reached a strength of 2,400 officers and 70,000 men.[41]
Between the World Wars, the Marine Corps was headed by Commandant John A. Lejeune, and under his leadership, the Corps presciently studied and developed amphibious techniques that would be of great use in World War II. Many officers, including Lt. Col. Earl Hancock "Pete" Ellis, foresaw a war in the Pacific with Japan and took preparations for such a conflict. Through 1941, as the prospect of war grew, the Corps pushed urgently for joint amphibious exercises and acquired amphibious equipment that would prove of great use in the upcoming conflict.
When the size of the Corps grew in preparation for World War I, Marines were forced to adapt surplus uniforms from the Army to clothe its troops. The green service uniform was adapted with a standing collar, while khaki uniforms were worn in combat. The garrison cap was introduced, originally to be worn overseas, as it could easily be carried when wearing the steel helmet. This marked the first time Marines, as well as other U.S. service members, wore distinct combat and non-combat field uniforms, in addition to dress uniforms.
