Wow, I'm surprised to see this actually, well... I'm surprised to see it from Hinkel. This is great news, I am strongly anticipating this mod even far more than I did for N&S. I have one extremely serious, and extremely important question. Are you guys using Mount and Blade models, or porting Total War unit models? I ask, because the use of Total War unit models makes the models in N&S look terribly weird, and terribly mutated. I really hope you guys will take the time to fit the uniforms and models to the actual Mount and Blade characters.

Good Luck: Hinkel and Antietam, Gabrilduro and his crew, and anyone else working on the mod. I may even just quit NW for this if it gets enough attention! :D

P.S. Please, for the love of Satan, add the 2nd New York Infantry to the Continental Army. They played a HUGE role in the American Revolution, and... uhm... I'm from New York.  :D

Thank you Kpetschulat!
Yes, the models are all Mount&Blade like, since nearly every model is done so far. I just have to rework most of the textures.

Since its the first wish and it is you, the 2nd NY will be in. I like their uniform too! :)

Hmmm, I have never seen the 2nd New York in Brown. Below is the correct uniform that they wore. Excuse the 2nd Maryland at the top of the first pic, the "2nd Maryland" and 2nd New York had almost the same uniform.

Similar to 2nd New York Uniform

Nonetheless, I am still excited they're going to be in the mod. Can I reserve the regiment? :D

Well, I'm using historical army facts  :P:

The new york state units were well drilled and often compared to Regulars. All were issued uniform coats, the 2nd Regiment receiving brown faced blue. Deserter and other descriptions also cite brown waistcoats and blue breeches.

Mind giving me the link to the site you're getting the info from? My sites I'm looking support my links... I really, truly and honestly, thought the 2nd New York wore a blue coat with red facings, yellow breeches and waist coast, and white gaiters. Quite possible that they switched uniforms after the reforms of the army.

Well, Hinkel. I'm sorry for doubting you. I've been doing some serious research and it seems that the 2nd New York did indeed where brown coats with blue facings, white breeches and waistcoat, and or black breeches and white waistcoat. However, I saw some pictures of 2nd New York Infantry also wearing blue coat with a beige/orange facings, white, black or beige/orange breeches, and a white waist coat. I don't know, if that's true. But, I'm seeing all different styles for 2nd New York Infantry.

From my sources...
2nd to Left, is a 2nd New York Infantryman...

Another 2nd New Yorker...

Lastly, another 2nd New Yorker...

I find this weird. Because so many sources support what you said with the Brown Coat, etc... But, then so many sources support what I said originally.

Well, this will be interesting. I foresee some (Hopefully friendly) competition between the NA and EU community in this mod. Good luck lads, and I'm looking forward to it!

Also, any chance of the light company of the 46th Regiment of Foot making an appearance? I dare say they earned such a thing. :P
