Goals of the Mod:
------------------------
1) Update the Leader images to be almost 100% colorized. I've also added a significant amount of 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.
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.
French Allies: Where possible, I've added historically accurate flags.
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 1813 time period.
Prussian Side: The core regiments should be accurate to the 1813 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.
Swedish Side (1808/1809 scenarios): I was not able to find quite as much information here but did my best to add some color to the game.
3) Unit Images:
I've borrowed from a number of titles. 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 weaker images. Maybe some more titles as well.
Additions were also made to allow for the correct coloring on French, Prussian, and Russian Cavalry units.
4) This follows a VERY similar design pattern to "EZJax" mods available on Napoleonic Games Club site, adding some art to the UnitBox file.
