UNIT REQUEST: Dragoon and napoleonic infantry

[Frink]

two units missing from the game, yet were two of the most important in Europain history are the what I call:
napoleonic infantry
dragoons

If one of you great unit designers could help me out here, I would be very greatful.
Basically, they look like what we've come to expect from movies and paintings and such:

a few intresting (and I think valuable) pictures at

same page, only brits:

toy models can be viewed at:

a few more (French colors)

these are the best I could find. I guess the infantry is strait foward. The dragoons, well, it would be nice if the rider got down off the horse for the attack (as dragoons used the horses to get into battle, then dismounted to fight), but if that is too hard, then attacking mounted is good too.

thanks to anyone willing to help

regarding the dragoons: just do what I do. use Dark Sheers Bandit as your Cavalry Unit and use the in game Cavalry as the dragoons. From the looks of the uniforms the in game cavalry fits the Dragoons of Civ2 almost to a 'T'

I totally agree and have been looking for just such a unit to be made. There was someone working on a Revolutionary War infantry unit, but I haven't seen a response from them in a long time.

It's in this thread: Swedish Carolean

Kind of funny, I did the same
I was about to create the Dragoon unit, but then I got a closer look at Dark's Bandit, and your right, it CAN look like a Dragoon.
So, I just changed the name

I did the same too, now we need a musket infantry unit.
