Why would you want what appear to be 1830's(ish) marines in NW?

I knew it was 1830's, the shako and the uniform itself gave it away.
The first modder for NW.

I dont care about that. They are Dutch, they look good and they fit to the upcoming patch.

Wouldn't you want Napoleonic Dutch marines, then?

Maybe. Depends on how they looked.

The first modder for NW.

Marines of the Kingdom of Holland looked like this. Don't know about the other Dutch states, though.

The ones I really like, big picture!

Is really different than this?

I'd prefer the upper one though ;). The hats look cooler, even though, as I think Docm has more Historical Accuracy nolage or something, I think they are not of the NW time period.

They're both Dutch Marines. The top picture is an early version, when the Dutch were allied to France, and were led by French officers. Which would explain the French cockade on their hats. The bottom picture is the late Dutch Marines, when the Dutch were part of the Allied coalition against Napoleon I. You can see that they replaced their hats with shakos, and made some slight uniform modifications. However, it's really hard to tell if the top picture is really from the Napoleonic Era, or if it's truly from the the 1830s. I looked at some pictures, and apparently the 1830 Dutch marines had identical uniforms to their 1809-1816 ancestors.

Please, if I'm wrong, correct me. But, I'm just going off my book and some online resources.
