Some units of the Armée des émigrés, fighting against the evil republican and imperial France, for the return of the monarchy.







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?
84e Régiment d'Infanterie de Ligne

I would love to see militia for all nations really

Me too. British Fencibles and Austrian Landwehr are so cool.

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

UK=7th Hussars, 15th Hussars, more British line regiments eg. 88th "Connaught Rangers" Foot and 7th Royal Fusiliers. No more Highlanders or KGL.

I do want the monarchy back, a constitutional monarchy inspired from the Scandinavian ones.

The 33rd have been bothering me for a while with their red facings and stovepipe shakoes.

The 44th, 50th or 88th would be far more interesting.

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 line regiments replaced the stovepipe with the belgic shako in 1812, the 33rd seem to be portrayed with the stovepipe as they had just returned from service in India.

I picked out the 50th just because of their facing. They were black. Though now that I look, the 58th were far more dashing, they had black facings and gold buttons whereas the 50th had silver.

The 44th and 88th wore yellow, bright and pale respectively. I have of course selected them for their achievements, though. The 88th probably need no explanation, the 44th (East Essex) captured an Eagle and were the basis for Sharpe's South Essex.

The 4e Régiment de Hussards is a regiment I'd very much like to see, way better looking than the 2e currently represented in the game. My opinion, anyway!

Nothing, Marching sucks
Of course, I also think lines should be able to move in double rank without having emotional breakdowns.
