Would you like a database log when I try to load the redcoat add on?

Quite a few.

Thank you.
Been reviewing some things around the project and I'm thinking of changing the Assyrian and the Babylonian uniques. I'm also looking for a new Swedish unique and alternatives to the American Saloon.
For now here are some changes to be introduced.

Culture and +1 
Faith instead of providing +2 
Production per resource traded in the city
Gold from trade routes

Perhaps the Runestone for Sweden? Provides a culture bonus of some sort, would work best as an improvement.
I'm looking for something more related to the Swedish empire than their viking ascendancy
...Armory/Barracks which add unique promotion: Swedish Allotment, which
Makes those units costing half of the normal maintenance and healing at double rate from pillaging
?
This would make historical sense, be balanced and useful
EDIT
Uhm, mrc, I don't understand the way Unit Flags/SV are created, and I'm not sure if I can create them on my own - I will post here Optimal Silhouettes To Turn Into Icons, ok? I trust you are better with it ;0
EDIT2
So, my alpha versions of unit flags and SV:
Junk Ship
Khopesh - I had a problem with Khopesh Sword - it is thin and lone sword looks like very thin line from further perspective
Mounted Bowman (Hunnic Horse Archer has simple bow in its icon)
Polish Uhlan - I am afraid that Version 1 can be too similar to Cavalry icon, so I created Version 2
Assyrian Guard
Clibanarii
Streltsy
Uhm... So could you ask someone for help with lua 'when building is created receive X yield'?

Actually this is the direction I'm following, an Armory replacement, the Indelningsverket, which stands for the swedish allotment, but I'm not sure about your idea...
Sure, no problem, for now the Redcoat is the only one with icon that doesn't have a flag

Regarding the Junk, I believe that the work I'm waiting includes that one.
For the Khopesh I would go with just one khopesh, if you could get me a silhouette better than the one already in use.
The Mounted Bowman and the Royal Guard are in hold...
Regarding the Uhlan, yes the first has a close resemblance to the Cavalry but I'm not inclined with using a national symbol alongside the flag
Regarding the Clibanarii and the Streltsy I'm a bit unsure about those flags
I would wait, if the artist that does the icons will also do the flags then it's something less to worry[/QUOTE]

LastSword is occupied and won't be able to help, Thalassicus has not answered...
Allright, news about this topic...
Been playing with HRE to see how it works and to try to get some ideas (I was thinking of adding the Rathaus). Need to play some more with them to see what would suit best, a UB/UNW or a UU.
Next in list to be played is the Papal States, although I already have something in mind, a Rifleman replacement or a new faith unit
Then to Norway, I feel the Stave Church would be a good choice, just need to see how to do it, I feel that the existing one is a bit blank...
Also, do to JFD's HRE changes to how Venice works, the Canals will be replaced.

How about State Legislature UB for America. No idea as to the benefits. Maybe ability to build some sort of National Guard unit. Perhaps krepost type benefits to purchasing tiles? Should only be buildable in cities founded by USA or gained by trade or peace treaty (ie not by conquest). Likely should have its own building class.

Was responding to post 268 re. thinking of saloon alternative.
I've intended to finish that, needed a reminder xD
My bad, now it should be updated
I've you develop your idea a bit more, but I'm not seeing that work. I'm looking for a UB, but haven't found a good choice, perhaps a UNW could be an alternative.
Too late, America already has Saloon with AWESOME icon
mrc, so what's currently missing? :0
Like Craig_Sutter said, I'm looking for alternatives.
What's missing?
Generally, reviewing all the uniques, finishing artwork, reviewing pedia texts.
Specifically, the Junk Ship, the Sala, the Indelningsverket and some lua codes.
Can I somehow help with pedia texts?
Oh... It's late but I reminded one minor thing...
Well, let's be honest, I think that current icon for Agora is UGLY and doesn't fit the game very well... Do you like it?
EDIT
Oh, and one suggestion - maybe you could also release Shoshone Tipi as alone mod which replaces Comanche with this tile improvement? I am pretty sure many people would love it.

Sure, be my guest
One of the things with reviewing the uniques will be reviewing artwork. For time being is fine.
Yeah maybe I could. Surprised no one launched that on Steam...
