FACT- Spanish dragoons had pink and purple polka-dotted jackets. Dain, your info is incorrect. I demand you change them to pink and purple polka-dots, despite all evidence pointing towards them having yellow jackets.
:D

I understand the desire for historical accuracy, but the semantics get lost on me as to whether or not their jackets or white or yellow. I think it looks good regardless of what colour it is.

Very good, quite beautiful screens. And, and, those yellow jackets? Could they be... Spanish Dragoons? :lol:
Nords ruled by King Ragnar, Khergits ruled by Sanjar Khan, Rhodoks ruled by King Graveth, Swadians ruled by King Harlaus, Vaegirs ruled by King Yaroglek. All those peoples live, fight, and die in the continent of Calradia. The Nords and Rhodoks field solely infantry and archers, the Swadians and Vaegirs have infantry, archers and cavalry and the Khergit field almost exclusively cavalry. No such things as "infarty" or "calvary" exist. A nice link to my mod ;)

Yes, although there's only me in that shot as we haven't got Spanish troops in yet, only uniform pieces.

Oh man, excellent screenshots, Dain. Completely worth lag on my browser.

They're all quite dark though, your personal HDR settings, I assume?

Oh and who are the black jackets in the last screenshots?

Brown jackets are Portuguese 6th Cazadores. Don't look that dark to me except the night shots :P

Note the shot with the volley gun blasting some lancers back too.

Nice. Good to see bridge battles in. In bridge battles, is it infantry only or will there be cavalry, because there are dismounted lancers in that screenshot with the lancers and the volley gun. Sorry if this has been asked before.

Awesomecakesauce as always, Dain.
Nothing on this forum is natural. We are the high fructose corn syrup of the internet.
Why not just throw them in a gas chamber full of chlorine gas? It's actual chlorine for the gene pool.

That only works if they're Jewish.

Yeah, everyone dismounts for those scenese atm. Will depend on the scene I suppose, atm we haven't got a scene where it'd be logical for cavalry to stay mounted.. dragoons can handle themselves on foot much better of course because they have carbines, but a load of blokes charging with swords is still fairly effective!
