France - More foreign Line Infantry, like the Polish Legion.
France - Dutch Grenadiers, Red Lancers (Dutch), 112th Line, Dutch Marines.Awesome choices I agree with all of them. Not many people know of the 112th Line "the victors of raab"

2e Chasseurs from mm, they looked so sexy
i think someone already mentioned them, but the british hussars
Light inf. with Light inf. stats on Prussia.Light inf stats = Skirmisher's stats :D
2e Grenadiers...I miss light guard inf ^.^
More units for Austria - I think the main reason people don't like Austria is because their uniforms look kind of shitty.
These guys look pretty cool:

French 18e Régiment d'Infanterie de Ligne (Line Infantry Regiment), a.k.a. "Les Braves" ("The Braves" ;D).
It was a pretty cool regiment, with great uniforms, and less if I'm a hussar, I'm in love with these guys :P

Gotta agree with Bluehawk.Didn't Napoleon fight the Ottomans in Egypt? Isn't that how the nose got knocked off of the great sphinx? Well known story if I'm not mistaken.
Also Ottomans AFAIK DID NOT participate in napoleonic wars,and if I remember correctly the mod is set in 1812-1815
I would love some coloured units for Russia-overall im close to crying when on server I'm forced to join a russian team...Their units are just horrible.
Someone mentioned Isum [or something like that] Hussars,that would be a great addition.
British units also lack colour.Maybe brunswickers? Dutch? Dunno,but something that adds colour.
1st KGL hussars for Britain. As they are, British cav in NW is worthless compared to the other factions. Cavalry Group fighting was forced to remove Britain in the first day because of the massive unbalance. Why Britain hasn't got hussars already to address the problem is a mystery. Light dragoon regiments were changed to hussar regiments from 1806 onwards and others were even armed with lances.

Lances didn't appear until after 1815 (1817, I believe). And though some regiments were named to hussars and got new uniforms, their weapons and tactics stayed exactly the same.Britain used Lancers at the time in its colonies, generally Indian regiments that would never have seen action outside their home country. Some Light Dragoon regiments were converted into Lancers after the Napoleonic Wars, as you said, in, it would seem 1816. They ended up adopting the European fashions for these regiments (particularly the Polish Czapka) but kept some of their distinctions from their time as Light Dragoon regiments, such as the 17th's white facings (that they originally complained would subject them to friendly fire.)
I think they're all the same thought stat-wise. They're just reskins, so it doesn't really make a difference balance-wise how many of each cav type different nations have.Lances didn't appear until after 1815 (1817, I believe).

The British had about seven hussar regiments though, including the three Kings German Legion regiments. I'm eternally going to say that at least one of them should be added. After all, as said, Russia has two lancer regiments, Austria has two dragoon regiments and France has three heavy cavalry regiments.

Well yeah that makes sense. I think they just don't want to add anymore though. It may not make sense logically but if the devs don't want to work anymore on that aspect, you're not going to change their minds.I think they're all the same thought stat-wise. They're just reskins, so it doesn't really make a difference balance-wise how many of each cav type different nations have.
My issue with it is that the reason they're not adding British hussars is that it isn't 'beneficial for the amount of work involved' and yet so many other nations have these superfluous units. Britain even has two heavy cavalry units.
The unit stats are pretty much all the same, I haven't seen equipment stats, however.
Chances are I won't change their minds, no. I think the ships and Marines are the last update.
Atleast the last big one.The unit stats are pretty much all the same, I haven't seen equipment stats, however.

Aye, it is the last update
French heavy cav has different stats.I suggest you read this (https://www.fsegames.eu/forum/index.php?topic=1108.msg23839#msg23839) before saying stuff like that, mate. This guy's also making item stats, so keep an eye out on that as well.
Carabinier has the best armor
Gren a cheval has the best ingame sword
Cuirassier is mix of Gren and Carabinier
Carabinier sword also seems shorter,but does more damage on stab.
Some units of the Armée des émigrés, fighting against the evil republican and imperial France, for the return of the monarchy.

I would love to see militia for all nations really
I like frenchies who still support the Bourbons, Gizmo. Lol. Who is the current heir btw? Some spanish dude, or is the house of Orléans branch the legitimates now?

The current heir of the Bourbons is Louis XX, son of Alphonse Jacques Marcellin Emmanuel Victor Marie de Bourbon, Duke of Anjou. Louis XX was born in Madrid, but his father is french, and he currently lives in New York (he is a sort of trader), and Paris.
On the other hand, the Orléanistes have Jean Carl Pierre Marie d’Orléans, Duke of Vendôme.
I personally support the Légitimistes (Bourbons), because the House of Orléans is just a younger bastard branch of the Capetian House of Bourbon, most people consider them as "traitors" (cf. 1830). The Bourbons are the rightful heirs of the Kingdom of France.
Sorry for that off-topic. :D
You truly want the monarchy back? With power?
Did the 88th Irish "Connaught Ranger" not have Stovepipe Shakos? I think they did... However, they had the nicer British uniforms with Yellow facings.
The French faction is supposed to represent the French circa Waterloo, a campaign during which the Guard Seamen only mustered 150 men. It'd be kind of odd to include a force that consisted of so few soldiers.
They also weren't actually marines, and the update calls for actual marines.
I take it you are referring to the kasket or helmet? If so, that would not be historically accurate. The production stopped in 1806.More units for Austria - I think the main reason people don't like Austria is because their uniforms look kind of shitty.

Yep
Looking at the French marine uniform in the update, it certainly appears to be double-breasted, not lapelled.
I'm quite sure it was a lapelled jacket (You can see the line in the middle), and if it isn't, it sure is badly made sailors jacket. I don't recall the sailors caracot (is that the word?) having so many buttons (Which are not going in a straight line).Spoiler(https://www.fsegames.eu/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.moddb.com%2Fimages%2Farticles%2F1%2F116%2F115928%2Fauto%2Ffrenchies.jpg&hash=dbfb05ab27567eb64230549c17619a439cdc732e)[close]
