Post subject:  [Mod] Running with Muskets

Running with Muskets is a work-in-progress mod set in the Napoleonic Wars. Players can join the forces of France, Britain, Austria, and more countries, and even more factions may be added later.

Features
    Multiple skins for each faction, each representing a different historical regiment, including the Vistula Legion, Preobrazhensky Regiment, and Austrian Grenzers
    Faction-specific weapons, including Britain's Baker Rifle and Austria's blunderbusses
    Pistol-wielding officers now replace miniboss soldiers
    Custom lines for each faction, starring vodka-guzzling Russians and baguette-munching Frenchmen
    Disguise as a civilian gentleman to fool your foes (Or probably get shot)
    And more!

Faction-Specific Weapons
France - Cavalry Carbine AN IX
Britain - Baker Rifle
Austria - Grenzer's Blunderbuss
Russia - "Tula" Musket
Prussia - Potzdam Infantry Musket
Sweden - Swedish 1731 Musket (With "DunDun Kulor")
(Spain, Duchy of Warsaw, Holland, and Switzerland are WIP)
(Note: "DunDun Kulor" were musket balls carved with deep X-shapes to increase the lethality of the shot. "DunDun Kulor" would tend to remain intact while being fired, but would shatter into multiple pieces upon impact, usually creating a small burst of fragments.

Help with this mod would be greatly appreciated, as not only is this my first mod, but I am working on it alone.

Download Version 0.5 here!

I'll happily give you some help - especially in animations, if required. ;)

Looking pretty good so far - those soldier models in particular.

Adding a horse would be an incredible amount of work.

Not that it isn't possible. :D

Cavalry has certainly been considered, and it'd definitely be awesome, though I honestly can't see it in the near future. Anyway, update: both Prussia and Russia are ready for use, any suggestions for their faction-specific weapons?
EDIT: Prussia and Russia now have the Potzdam Musket and Tula Musket respectively, Sweden also added but without a unique weapon so far.

Another update: Custom faction names are now implemented, even Polish names for the new Duchy of Warsaw:

Could you add items like the Needle Rifle as rares? Would make the rare stuff more valuable.

Possibly, as the Pauly needle gun was being worked on at the time. This mod focuses specifically on the Napoleonic Wars, and there is not quite an abundance of information of the exact weapons that were historically used by armies of the period, so few factions will have more than just one unique weapon. I'm trying my best to find as much information as possible of historical armories, though, so don't worry much. ;)

Here's a bit of news: The first release will include 10 factions! A few may be considered minor factions, though I think it's sometimes fun to have something other than just the largest countries.
