I am in the process of creating a French and Indian War scenario for Conquests. As this is my first attempt at creation, I need some help for units. Any help is always appreciated. With that said, here are desired units:
1)
French Regulars. Please look at the links below for pictures. I would like both types to be created, as in red collar/cuffs and blue collar/cuffs since I intend to use both. Also, the units
MUST be armed with muskets, as in the picture for Regiment de Bearn. I also ask that the attack graphic has the soldiers standing rather than kneeling. Here are links:

2)
British Regulars: the standard Redcoat. Is this unit already floating around out there? My only request is that the leggings are white and the redcoat covers the arms fully (as in 2nd from left in 231). Preferable cuff colors are white and blue only (as in 231's far left). See pictures below. Also, a standing attack feature would be preferable to kneeling.

3)
Canadian Militia and
American Militia. This is open largely to creators ideas. A picture of my thoughts is posted below. Ideas welcome from all.

4)
Canadian Regulars and
American Colonial Regulars. Not sure how these would have looked, but an idea I had was to have them be the same as the other Regulars except change the hat, leggings, or some other article of clothing. Ideas welcome from all.
5)
Indian Musketman. I believe this is floating around there somewhere... does anyone have a good link?
6)
Scottish Regulars. optional. If made, only request is that it has a kilt and maybe the tall British grenadier hat (is that historically accurate?).
7)
Light Infantry for both the French and British. Optional. If made, same outfit as the regulars, just a different hat. Not necessisarily needed as the militia will perform the same functions.
8)
Grenadiers, both British and French. Again, optional. British grenadiers must have tall hat. French grenadiers, I am unsure of how their uniform differed from regulars.
9) Anything else that anyone comes up with as an idea relating to units, maps and the scenario itself. All ideas are welcome!
Thank you to those who attempt creation. Any work will be very much so appreciated. Please PM me with ideas, thoughts, or if you are planning on helping me.
