Love this mod. You converted me from Darthmod so well done. I really enjoy the historical accuracy, especially of unit names and ship names. I'm early into my first campaign (playing as Britain) and really enjoying it.
A couple of things I would love to see changed and one possible bug I encountered:
- The first two ranks of infantry units firing, instead of the first three. From what I have read, it would be more historically accurate as the third rank firing made things very uncomfortable and dangerous for the first rank: "The first two ranks loaded and fired - Passing the barrels of their (3rd rank) muskets over the shoulders of 2nd rank, the muzzles were very near the ears and heads of the first rank. The loud discharge, heat and powder so close to ears, head and eyes were quite disturbing for the first rank. Sometimes fingers and elbows were shot away." -

- The running speed of infantry has been significantly reduced in this mod. I assume because keeping formation is easier at slower speeds which is fair enough but, it does result in bayonet charges looking a little odd and being more challenging as you can't close into melee quickly enough to avoid taking significant damage from enemy fire.
- I encountered a bug in my first (and so far, only) land battle. My cannons (12-pounders and 6-pounder horse) refused to fire canister shot. The crew would load, light the fuse and duck and cover their ears as usual, but the cannon didn't fire. They would then repeat the loading process. Switching back to solid shot works as normal.
Other than this, the mod is fantastic. Awesome work and hope you keep it up!
