This is the US marine corps during the Boxer rebellion. They have a Springfield Model 1892-99 Krag-Jørgensen rifle

I was wondering if we could also get some new faces, I know the guys from FullInvasion2 have some really good faces. Because so far we only have one European looking face whic is a little restricing for character creation  :P.

Actually there's an Asian face, a middle eastern face, and a black face.

That's cool and all, but I really don't like the look of the Boxer Rebellion US Marines. Maybe if you just used regular American Infantry? All you'd have to do then is convert the colors to a beige.

This picture is closer to the 1870's.

Well I'm doing the most prominent troop types, and every time you look for US troops in the boxer rebellion you find these marines.
Don't worry I'll have regular US units for the US faction.

Haha yeah what I meant is that out of all the faces there is just one that looks European, so for a European regiment that tries to look like they are European it would be like attack of the clones all over again.

The Krag-Jørgensen rifle is a Norweigan version of the Swedish mauser I think.

The update is really coming along nicely! Just one thing, weren't their boots black? That is one of the things I love about 19th century American uniforms, their white/beige gaitors contrasting with the black boots.

It's an awkward unsuccessful rifle adopted by the USA for a few years and then phased out for the springfield.

Isn't the Krag rifle a little too modern in comparison to the Chassepot, Martini-Henry, and Dryse? I swear they had some other, incredibly shit rifle in the '70s

Yes, but this is for the Boxer rebellion micro faction. You can play as US marines against Boxer rebels.
I wouldn't expect people to play with Krags and mausers against chassepots.

Fair deuce, that's be very unfair, though Chinese vs Prussians would be good for a line battle funround

This boot was originally called the M1851 Artillery Driver's Boot, as it was originally only issued to Artillery Drivers. During the American Civil War they were also issued to Cavalry troops and continued as the Cavalry Boot until replaced by the Model 1872 Boot, which is a modified version of this boot.

This boot covers an amazing time period. It is ideal for many impressions from just after 1800 through 1900 and beyond. It is suitable for 1800's miners, teamsters, cattlemen, farmers, Indian Wars, Cowboy Shooters, etc.. Mail order catalogues printed in the 1890s show a wide assortment of prices and qualities in styles just like these.

Some of the Chinese have mausers so i don't think so.
