Infantry Units

[Monarch]

Smart tactics . I often play as Britain though, and they don't seem to get any melee units at all. I wish they got Highland Clansmen...

In late era mp they get the Black Watch, which are good-at-melee-scotsman, are they not available in the campaign?

Anyways, the boring way is to spam grenadiers, micromange the overpowered grenades and watch the enemy lines be obliterated. I'm currently at 1750 with the Brits, basically spamming line infantry. Will start to incorporate some skirmishers in my armies soon.

They are available in the campaign, but I haven't seen them yet .

You can't realy 'spam' line infantry. They are meant to be used en masse .

From what I've seen so far, the units do have a different look for each faction.

Most of the units are relatively similar, but I think they all carry their own nationalistic flavor to them. For example, the hats on the Russian troops.
