Goals of the Mod:
------------------------
1) Update the Leader images to be almost 100% fully colorized. I've also added well over 100 additional leader images and made corresponding OOB updates, updating leaders who were given generic artwork in the base game. This adds a little more variety and flavor to the game.
I've done my best to be as accurate as possible with this, although it gets a little challenging at times.
Generic images were limited as much as possible.
2) I've added Regimental / Battalion flags where possible.
French side: This adds the 1812 style flags for French units. I also went with the Battalion fanion approach again in a similar fashion to the Napoleon in Russia mod that I already posted. i.e. Only the 1st Battalion in a regiment gets the core flag, and the other Battalions get fanions.
Austrian Side: I've added Austrian flags for most units, as well as Austrian allies from this time period.
Russian Side: I've added Regimental Flags wherever possible. I've done my best to consult various sources so hopefully this is accurate to the 1814 time period.
Prussian Side: The core regiments should be accurate to the 1814 time period. Some artistic license was applied to the Landwehr and Reserve units, where the historical record is a little shaky or the units may not have carried flags.
3) Unit Images:
Generally speaking, I've utilized some artwork from "Napoleon in Russia," "Eylau," and the "Wellington's Peninsular War" titles to spice things up a bit or get rid of some images I thought were a little below par.
Additions were also made to allow for the correct coloring on French Cavalry units, Austrian Infantry and Cavalry units, Russian Cavalry units, etc.
I've haven't ventured into getting the Russian Infantry collars or shoulder straps perfect yet.
4) This follows a VERY similar design pattern to "EZJax" mods available on Napoleonic Games Club site.
The French, Austrian, Russian, and Prussian art on the top right of a unit box comes straight from there.
