So this got me thinking, "let me look it up." And I found this:

Turns out there really was an Irish brigade in the Mexican army.
So I've decided to tackle the Mexicans for version 3 of the mod. Since I couldn't find not one detail or even drawing about what Mexican infantry might of looked at the time during its independence, I figured since CA gave Mexico an Irish unit that appears 36 years after the game ends, I could take a few liberties with the uniforms as well. I figured I might give them uniform colors from Texas Revolution which is a few years closer to the games time frame (1700-1800-10)
But, before I start spending untold hours on this idea, can someone *Looks at pervergreen*....I know your the only one that lives here besides me!confirm if Spain has an Irish unit for me? I'm away from home untill the weekend and I can't check myself. If they do, then that means the Mexican army is a clone army of the Spanish and negates the uniqueness of it.
