Age of Empires III MicroExpansion:The Reinforcements Mod


Total Progress:29%

Features:
*Being made on Vanilla,I dunno if TWC or TAD will work on it
*Obviously won't work with other mods

Enables:
- Armored looking non upgraded musket for spanish civ
- Marines for most civs except Ottoman,trainable from the Dock and possibly a Caravel in the upgrade.Probably just a vet musket model with a Guard Musket hat or something
- States Regular,an Industrial Unit summoned from the barracks,replaces Skirmisher and available only to US.Anti Infantry(Range) and Cavalry(Melee).Probably gonig to be a build limit
- Hessian Mercenary,Super muskets that can kick butt,sent from the home city with Hessian Garrison and Hessian Army cards.Hessian Army card available only to British,while Hessian Garrison to all civs.
- Covered War Wagon,an artillery limber mode speed transport unit with no attack.Can carry 10 infantry to the front.Train max of 5.Available to all civs from stables
- Broadsword Knight,a knight carrying a two large broadswords,fast moving and strong attack,but weak armor.Archaic infantry,but comes out as veteran,available to all civs from Town Center,cheap food,but expensive in gold,available in Colonial
- Tower Guard,available in Fortress,Veteran troops that can be trained from an Outpost,5 for every outpost(Works like Natives and trading posts).Can't decide on the model yet,I want it to be veteran,but I don't want confusion.Cannot be upgraded.But towers still can.Max train of 65 Tower Guard(With Extensive Fortifications Card,normal is 35)

I can maybe work on a banner. If I do make one, I'll post it here...

edit: here it is:


Sorry it's not my best. I can try working on another one if you'd like. Just didn't think of many concepts I could use.

That can work,thanks

Mine was going to be either a background showing redcoats pass Colonial defences as they marched up Bunker Hill with like Arial Text

Another one was an AOEIII pic with a Musket vet looking at the viewer with Blue Arial Text

I don't have PS so I can't make good artwork effects
