Development.

I just keep thinking about the US Uniforms.
I assume it's the uniform used between the civil war and the spanish American war but Kepis were still somewhat used in the time in between, except for Cavalry who invested in slouch hats and whatnot. The uniform just seems... weird to me. I know it's not decorative and whatnot it just looks.... weird.

Maybe it's the beard?

Actually, in this image it seems to me that they use the same slouch hats as the US marines during to boxer rebellion.

Well it does depend since during the Indian wars the uniform was constantly changing  a little bit.

Also Wilhelm, is there a possibility I can see the Osprey image? :3

I didn't do the scarf, figured its a personal item.

Ah that is interesting!
Yeah the 1876 Campaign hat was going to be my second guess
also an 1874 Sack Coat and an 1872 Forage Cap (Looks like a Kepi) could also be used with branch and regiment number put on the cap
Thank you Willhelm!

Hats.... (1876 Campaign hat and 1872 Forage Cap)

I'm now taking suggestions on new loading/menu screens, and would appreciate if anyone wants to make some new maps.

Loading screen... (This one is good, because you can add the "Blood and Iron" logo at the top)

Both are 1920x1080p, which will scale the best for monitors.

Why not a map of the world in 1870s, with some areas shaded in red/blood to represent conflict and whatnot?

They're good but as I'm moving away from the Franco Prussian war I'm thinking of something more global or colonial.

That's a good idea.

[Joseph Graham]

I'd say go for it; the era is immediately prior to the Scramble for Africa, and colonialism has already started to kick off in some parts of the region. I'll see if I can dig up the map I found earlier today.

Yes.

I like that idea.

Btw, Will you rename the Prussian faction to just "The German Empire" or "The 2nd Reich"??
