Change it, and quickly.
It doesn't look too good.
If possible put 2 crossed rifles, but a sun? No. Looks really bad in my opinion.

Two crossed rifles is a good idea yeah.
You'll also need somebody to redo the NPC and player dialogue.

If you can make the texture slightly brighter for the rifles and it is perfect. Good luck looking for the other overmap stuff don't forget the sounds!

That's Nikolai I of Russia, not Nikola I of Montenegro. Here's a portrait of Nikola I at his "coronation".
At his early period Nikola I used a Russian general's uniform that he got as a gift from Tsar Alexander II during his education in Russia. He replaced it with a Montenegrin general's uniform in 1868. Due to being shot in the leg in 1876, he stopped carrying the uniforms (probably due to the leg skin not liking tight pants), since then he can be seen in the Montenegrin traditional costume.
As for uniforms... It was standardised kind of Russian uniforms produced in the period 1855-1858, except that instead of the helmets peaked hats (in Montenegro called šapka (ShAPKA)) were used, and the soldiers carried black well-made Montenegrin national hats.
They didn't variate much between the ranks..Generals had those big golden epaulets like Nikola I in his portrait up there.
This uniform ^^
These were acquired in small amounts ( about 30 of them ) from Russia to serve as a honorary lifeguard batallion that was in the court of Danilo I. They were a personal gift from Alexander II to Danilo I on his last birthday on May 1860
The soldier's uniform was a standard Russian like infantry uniform of the period with the Montenegrin national hat

Realism all the way... Montenegro in 1860 had a good standing 20k army, a population of some 200k and a treasury full of Russian nobility and French donations. It had no navy though, and cavalry wasn't quite common, though some soldiers used to ride as "dragoons" while most officers had horses.
There was a huge stockpile of ammo and weaponry, specially after the looting on the Turks at the glorious Grahovac battle. The budget allowed for the first real high quality medals to be ordered to be made, mainly in Austria.
Since 1858, the main armaments of the Montenegrin army were a bulk of various weapons built in Russia and Austria, however there were those that were "homemade" by the Montenegrins, they didn't lack in quality, though they weren't mass produced and each one was basically unique. Turkish muskets were also used a lot, while the French donated 2000 rifles (Minies) in 1854. The main armament that is known by name would be the Lorenz rifle and the Minie, some Serbian ones were made in Kragujevac and were bought by Nikola I though I do not have the sources of pictures or what exact models would they be.

I'd also start putting the call out for a few more modders to help.
