Hi
i noticed that Piedmont (savoy ) has a very strange and unseen flag..
i know it because is my region..

im from torino , italia.
thus.. i corrected the "error".. if anybody wants it i will be happy to share the modified graphic files just ask me (or i ll try post upload it somewhere ).
If im not wrong are just 3 files, for static armies, trade, and diplomacy.

cheers

Von Bert

Hi Vonbert,

Actually, yes, I'd be interested in a better flag for Piedmont to include in CoG2: Emporer's Edition. Just post it here, on the forum. (Larger is better!)

Do you know the background of the flag? When was it adopted?

I found this on a site depicting a battle of 1747
http://ilmarocchino.blogspot.com/2006/09/la-battaglia-dellassietta.html

The flag is actually a white (light gray? ) cross in red camp.
Similar to the denmark one.. but centered , and with bigger arms of the cross.

The previous one i think is a "regimental" flag of the time (or similar.). but maybe u can capture some blu element on the corners to make it a bit more different from denmark and swiss

this is the actual one, the regional flag, you may see that has a reversed crown on it, cause now the king is gone .. ;)
but.. also this one is blue.. so.. maybe u can elaborate a red flag with white centered cross with some blue simple element on the corners/borders

have a nice job !
;)

PS i dont have much time now to found background info on the flag, but i'm sure this is the flag deriving from the Savoy family heraldry, and they were rulers of piedmont/savoy for centuries, since 1200 i suppose..
