New York has the best uniforms. :P
Also, I would have put 3rd New Jersey, but it was already on here.
-
i cant believe no one has mentioned the Iron Brigade units. Best Union Regiment in my opinion.
Here is the 2ndWI uniform-

And I would put up some CSA uniforms but there wasnt really a uniform. people just wore their shirts into battle.

Oh very nice ones so far, but its time to sweep them down with the 83rd Pennsylvania uniforms.
UNIFORM:
(https://www.fsegames.eu/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2F6wsq5oy.devhub.com%2Fimg%2Fupload%2Ffgtytujmu.jpg&hash=6e331d2c154957712b21d7768ec442980cf00206)
Tell me what you gentleman think. They had one of the most customized uniforms for rankers in the union army.
-
The 83rd PA used that uniform for exactly 3 months.. They never used it in any battle. It was immeditly removed, when the 3 month recruitment camp was done... ;)
They got quickly the regular uniform.. To get that awfull dress away :D
Most of the uniforms, which were showed in this thread, were used for 2-3 months. Those uniforms were used during the Battle of Manassas (if the regiment took part in the battle) , but got quicky replaced by federal issued uniforms.
Same for that ugly italian uniform :D
-
Shame, those epaulettes seem heavy enough to use as a weapon themselves.
