Welcome, Markuz,

While I've only played a single battle with you (a loss that was of my doing... :doh:) I can tell you'll be a valuable addition to our ranks!

Dear sirs

I would like to request a change of uniform. I have a desire to wear my true British red which I have had a love for since I first developed my interest in napoleonic and Victorian warfare. In fact it is thanks to Michael Caine and the movie Zulu that I am here today. I grew up watching the red coated Brits holding the line and can wear this French tunic no more.

I originally had a Lt bromhead avatar, could someone kindly cut and paste my head onto this more fitting red officer tunic so may feel comfortable. If one could keep my head tilted at the same strange angle as it provides myself and marshal Tac with amusement as I have a hung by the neck expression. Thanks awfully gentlemen. Here is a nice uniform http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/c ... rtrait.jpg

Also who do I ask for a nice signature picture that many of n have they are desirable and well made. Tally ho

If you like red uniforms you could always go for a uniform of the Swiss line regiments in the service of the empereur.

Or of course for the magnificent red uniform of the 2me régiment chevaux-légers lanciers de la Garde Imperiale (famous dutch red lancers.)

But why choose one from the detested perfide albion...... :nodno:

I do quite agree with General Rakker however it is your choice to change your avatar. [N] does not dictate exactly what an avatar should be. For the most part we wish to emulate the French army but the choice is yours; within reason. Change Mr. Caine as you see fit. I was not really serious when I made it anyways but it was a smashing success amongst the army. You should get a fresh pic if you use Paint as it degrades terribly. As for the head tilt, I doubt such a degree of artistic brilliance could ever be duplicated, not even by me.

Where have all the good ole Francophobes gone?

I'll tell you why, sir, it is because I am English. And want to wear my countries colours with pride. If it wasn't for us 'detested albion' we'd all be speaking French / german !

I would like a lovely bright red British tunic as the picture shows with my Michael Caine head positioned slightly to one side as before. I can edit this myself and post it when I get home if you like.
