I just noticed the French-British-Turkish flag toolbar background as well. That looks great.

Thanks Tank,
the Bersaglieri should be in greatcoats like the line infantry,but I wanted the Italian style to show,also I always have an eye on potential future mods.I did try to get the Sardinians on the toolbar as well,but it was one flag too many.

Thank you Crikey,
you're right about the flags,if you look top right of the picture you will see the floating flag I use,the flag in the centre of the pic is for the general behind.

Also,I've been experimenting with the sprite sizes,using your 1836 mod,which I really enjoy.I have settled on the resolution below.When I finish them I'll PM them to you if you want.

I like the hunting horn idea by the way,will look at using that.

Hi Chamberlain and thanks,
I was pleased with the way both turned out.

Those Russians in greatcoats look fantastic. Too bad they are not wearing shakos. We could use them in the nappy mod.

We probably still could! There are enough gaps in the uniforms library that we often use a uniform that's close instead of exactly correct. I personally don't worry a great deal about things like uniform accuracy - immersion and gameplay are more important for me.

Thanks Pom

Those Mexican War sprites look very cool.

They'd be a terrific addition.

Thank you Marching Thru Georgia,
if you find you need them then I'll add a shako and send them to you.

Hi Tank,
I'll confess I've always been more of a visual modder rather than the gameplay,but as I learn more about SOW I hope to change that.

Crikey,
No problem,with the new features coming with Waterloo, hopefully,you'll be able to do an Alamo addon.

With the greatcoats, if we had some Russian grenadiers with mitered hats, we could do an Eylau OOB.
