Hello there
Request 1) I love having the Redcoat as England's UU, but I'm hoping someone out there is already planning a reskin?
Obviously, over the years and across regiments there were plenty of variations on the redcoat. I'm no history expert, but judging by the powdered white hair, these redcoats are based on (exact replica of?) ones from the American colonial period. (Heh, maybe this is cos of the scenario included...Anyway, I'd prefer them to be based on a regimental uniform from Wellington's armies during Napoleonic times. Anyone got something like that up their sleeves?
Request 2) Is it possible to add clouds of smoke to the animations of any of the real gunpowder units when they fire? I like the battle animations, but they're all a bit...damp?...without smoke.
Request 3) I was just wondering if it is possible to not only shrink a unit' graphic, but to add more figures to the unit? A unit of ten Redcoats firing shoulder to shoulder, in a thin red line and periodically vanishing behind great clouds of smoke...ahh, what a fine thing that would be.
Hands up if you think I should just find a Napoleonic RTS?
Heheheh
Oh, and isn't it odd that the Rifling tech gives you the Redcoat? The very Redcoat who carried an un-rifled musket? You want to give England a UU that has a rifle, then use the green jacketed Rifleman. Not that it matters at all, at all.
Oh, and also: Request 4) Can someone stop the longbowman from firing a barber's pole? It looks like a stripey painted tree trunk! Can we have one that is thinner, and wood coloured?
