I think one of the two English civil wars would be cool

There wasn't 2, either 1 grouped together or 3 split up.

I think, a War of 1812 mod would be nice. British/Canadians/Natives vs. Americans/Natives/French. "1812"

A War of 1812 Mod would be excellent for NW. I am shocked that the first attempt died for lack of a coder since I think code changes would be so minimal...reducing factions to 2, changing the descriptions on the menus etc. Gameplay would remain the same. New models required would also be few in number; some american hats, a tomahawk, a long rifle, half stocking the British Baker rifle so it looks like a US Harpers Ferry, and clipping the point of the British model 1796 saber so it looks like a US Nathan Starr saber. The biggest task would be the skinning of the US units, the Canadian Militia, some Native American warriors, and tweeking some of the British skins. As far as maps go I have already made five of them, all forts. I wish someone who is good at skinning would pick it up again.

I am not sure I understand your reasoning for making Canada a separate faction from Britain. Canada is known as British North America in 1812. If your worried about getting enough Canadian Militia units in the British faction, the factions for this mod would be larger than normal since it only has two of them.

Small mod to help out melee> disable all bushes or anything you can walk through that you can see through. Like remove them or make the texture/model really really small.

A huge texture pack that will replace the NW units with early 18th century units.

Why not a 18th century mod?
Because those mods never work, or come alive. With a huge texture pack you will still have the same amount of people playing. But still you can decide wether you want the NW units or units like this:

British Line infantrie
Spoiler
[close]

British Grenadiers
Spoiler
[close]

Swedish Line Infantrie
Spoiler
[close]

Prussian Grenadiers
Spoiler
[close]

You could even just keep the factions for a big part. Then change the skins and add some if needed, for example: the Russian grens didn't change much I beleave, so you can just keep those or edit them a little bit. Also: If there were mods in progress, but they quit their work. You might get some skins from them?

Just an idea, but I prefer having sexy stuff, but still the same experience with 100+ battles on EU1
