We have a Louisiana Tiger uniform, but left it out for several reasons:

1. The memory hit
2. The uniform was rarely used and only by a few companies..... and the appearance varies..... some blue jackets and some faded to brown (our sprite had brown).

Sorta a Leon Redbone look:

By the time of Gettysburg most if not all of the Tigers had worn out their zouave uniforms and were wearing either standard Confederate uniforms or some form of homespun replacements.

Something to remember is that for the Confederates it was hard to keep their uniforms in proper shape. More often then not they had to make do with whatever they could scrounge up. For the Union who's supply system was much better the uniform replacement was much easier, though as the war went on the zouave uniforms were slowly replaced by the standard Union uniforms. The garibaldi, zouave and other unique uniforms were just too hard to maintain, so were replaced as they wore out by the standard uniform of the two sides.

Thanks for response I noticed it was mentioned that the team had several other uniform types such as the tigers not in game would you consider make them available for a price as a add on or for a mod perhaps?

I was reading about Hayes and the 2nd battle of Fredericksburg and followed this link:

I thought that the La. Tigers regiments would be close to Elite status. They captured Cemetery Hill during the battle! Lost it to a counter attack, but, they did capture it.
