But they were trained to fight as skirmishers why would you want to make them line infantry
The only time people say Wiki isn't reliable is when it doesn't support their argument. The rest of the time they're always using it.

god damn, Anthony is smart, he was able to get the shit AEF to tie with the best reg in the game. The tactical geniusness needed to pull off such a feat is insane. He's the Erwin Rommel of NW.

It won't be FSE developing it, so it will come out!
MadManYo, just stop, 60th Rifles are going to the skirmishers, not the 95th, so please, leave this alone.

How would you feel if the 60th was replaced by Fraser's Rangers - Company of Select Marksmen?
Just saying, the 60th and 95th rifles werent rifle regiments during the Revolution. The 95th and 60th only became so in 1805. The appropriate rifle regiments of the British Army in the rev war would be Fraser's or any of the consolidated Light Infantry Regts. Those were the light companies of each regiment in the army brought together to make one big light regiment. As a historian some of the posts are giving me a great laughable read. EDIT: Also the 60th was barley EVER made up of Americans. Most of the recruits were Germans, and saw very little action during the rev war being stationed in Florida. If you want any historic advise on this mod let me know. I work with Redcoats.
