just a note re. 'England' - most Europeans then and even now refer to England, and the English, at least as often as the refer to Britain and the British, to mean the inhabitants of the British Isles.   Particularly regarding the Napoleonic era, the word of choice was 'England' for most...

Annoying and insulting though it may be for the Welsh, Irish and Scots, most of the world does not acknowledge their contribution to the United Kingdom.

Downloading! This'll keep me occupied most of the time while I wait for various other mods to be released, as well as a patch for E:TW that solves the loading error....I'll probably say what I think of your mod in an hour or two.

Are you also having problems with ETW. Dude that game scrips is having serious problems. Cause every patch they release solves one problem but makes three new more ones.

I had the loading error, then a blue screen, installed the first patch and had black screen instead and now after I installed the 2nd patch I still have the loading error but no single-coloured screen, so actually the patches are doing good for me.

Back On Topic:

First Impressions:
Decent alpha, some spelling mistakes. I had my small band destroyed by some peasants....

The French have a King's Guard......the King was guillotined?
The French troops are called "France *insert unit name here*" instead of "French *insert unit name here*".
Also the French are called the Republic of France yet their faction leader is called "Emperor Bonaparte"
The British still have black britches.
The British have a unit called "Towern Guard". I presume this is "Tower Guard"? How about adding a guards line instead, such as the Foot Guards?
Infantry are called "Infantrie" in the game.

Suggestions:
How about adding bicornes and a larger selection of hats? Also how about some flintlock muskets.....
How about calling "Revolution Party" "Dissenting Peasants"? Seems strange having another revolt in France or the States. Also they have quite a lot of troops: might be hard for starters.
Instead of "High Road Bandits" call them "Highwaymen"
There are probably loads of names for the ordinary troops.
Also, how about extending troop trees to allow for different troop types, such as giving the French Cuirassiers, or Horse Grenadiers.
Just having "Dragoons","Hussars"&"Lancers" as each faction's cavalry might be a little generic.

This mod is looking great! ^^ I suppose it will be insane upon its completion ^^

Although I had a thought regarding rifles, as mb limits you to having single purpose weapons you cant use your rifle as bayonettes as well, so you have 2 seperate rifles. But when you switch from rifle to bayonette, the rifle goes up on yer back while yer holding your melee-rifle. Is there any way its possible to make the rifle invisible when its "sheathed"?(You know, to give the illusion of holding 1 rifle instead of 2). Just a thought.

I know, making it masked. But when I do that it get stuck on the head or something. And I'll make som changes thanks for your help Venitius. But they had an Emparor even when they where a republic. Strangely enough.

And no I don't think I'll do that. Allthrough. I am doing this mod myself and I an no great mapper.
