As some of you, those who have been here long enough, may remember I had a Waterloo Mod that I created ages ago. I told those who played it and enjoyed it, that one day I will return to create the mod again. But only after the game has been released, as to prevent having to rework the entire thing after every petty release. Well, the game has been released and true to my word I am here to present you with a finalized Mod Design. If you would like to help with models, sounds, scripting, or any other help we might require, feel free to contact me by private message.
I will not release an open beta until the mod is almost near completion. However, testing must go on anyhow. So if you want to be a tester just contact me in PM.
Here is the final mod design:
The Story
The year is 1815 and you have to choose which faction you are.
If you chosen France, you will start with Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte (Claimant) in you party in the south of France. You have just pledged allegience to Emperor Napoleon, and are seeking to restore him to the throne. You have to go and invade every town, village and castle. The plus side is the Lords will all be very eager to join your cause. All except King Louis XVIII, he will send troops after you to try and stop you. You begin with 120 troops, and that should be enough to reconquer France. After you conquer France, Napoleon is crowned Emperor once again. As soon as you do this all of the factions will declare war against you, and will amass military campaigns to seek to dethrone Napoleon. They will all be heading to France. As the Marshall of France, it is your duty to protect Napoleon. Can you amass a campaign and intercept the Coalition armies before they arrive in Paris to dethrone Napoleon?
If you chose any other Faction other than France, Napoleon has already come to power and has reclaimed the throne. You are the Marshall of your Faction,
and it is your duty to amass a campaign to dethrone Napoleon. The Coalition Campaigns are on their way to Paris. It is your duty to join them and
stop Napoleon in his tracks.
A New Map
A map of Europe with Historical Towns, Villages and Fortresses from Britain, France, Prussia, Russia, and Austria. There won't be any neutral nations, but nations that would have been neutral historically will be added to its nearest neighbor, or some that historically were apart of another as a protectorate Faction. The castles will be replaced with a standard fortress of the period. Cities will not have new buildings, but there will be new city plans to try and fit each area best.
All New Weapons and Armor
Each Faction will have its own armor to suit the uniforms for each unit type. So many uniforms will be available. Weapons will include various different Muskets, Rifles, Pistols, Sabers, Cavalry Swords. Many different hats will be available like Tricorne, Bicorne, various hats for uniforms and cavalry types. New siege equipment like Canons.

Troop Types
L'infanterie de la ligne - désigne les unités d'infanterie classique, généralement des fusiliers qui combattaient en formation en ligne et composaient les compagnies du centre d'un bataillon. On parle à propos de ces hommes de lignards. L'intérêt du combat en ligne sur la colonne est double : d'une part, face à l'artillerie, un boulet en prenant une colonne en enfilade peut causer la perte d'une quinzaine d'hommes, ce qui devient impossible face à une ligne ; d'autre part, pour le tir en ligne, toute la puissance de feu peut être employée simultanément.
Infanterie de la Ligne - the quintessential infantryman, generally Fusiliers who fight in line formation compose companies in the middle of a battalion. They were known as the "Lignards." There are two advantages of line combat: one, facing the artillery, a canon ball can cause several casualties of men while in column formation, however, this becomes impossible against a line. The other advantage, is that a musket becomes much more powerful while the entire line fires simultaneously.
Voltigeur - Dans son sens militaire, le voltigeur est un fantassin porté en première ligne par un cavalier qui le prend en croupe. Plus généralement, le terme désigne les unités d’infanterie légère d’une compagnie d’élite destinée à agir en tirailleur en avant de la ligne d’un bataillon. La Garde impériale a eu jusqu’à 19 régiments de voltigeurs. Il est alors le fin tireur de l'armée française, mais plus faible au corps à corps.
Voltigeur - In the military sense, the Voltigeur is a grunt infantryman led from the front by a Cavalryman in hindquarters. However, more generally the term applies to a light infantry unit of an elite company to act as a skirmisher ahead of the line infantry of the battalion. The Imperial Guard had up to 19 regiments of Voltigeurs. It is thus the best skirmisher of the French Army, but more weak in melee combat.
