Correct. Educated guess would say Evangelical and Catholic majors will finally get released, but not sure what else or if anything else. I would imagine that if they release renders (please @BjornB), that it would be a week or two ahead of release

There are four "Encrypted DLC" depots on Steam Database:
- "Europa Universalis IV: Rights of Man"
- "Europa Universalis IV: Rights of Man Content Pack"
- "Europa Universalis IV: Songs of Regency Music Pack"
Based on the name, I'd say this is a proper new content pack and Evangelical/Catholic Majors will come later.

I'll stay hopeful and hope that Evangelical will be another register bonus at release

Alternatively, it could be one of the unit packs in the Rights of Man content pack. That might be highly unlikely, but a man can dream.

On the plus side, that's quite a few countries getting units.
Plus the guy on the far right looks awesome

Yea but most of them get wiped out first not to mention we have enough sprites for central/western Europe as it is. The only good thing that I see is the African part and Bohemian- Bavarian units. I really am disappointed, I mean we still get the generic muslim units for the qara qoyunlu/aq qoyunlu , or generic Asian units for most Asia, not to mention those horrible models that the East Europeans use(Trebizond uses Russian looking units!!)

Sorry, had to point that out cuz it made me lol
As much as I agree I would like to see Eastern Europe get fleshed out (Lithuania and Hungary in particular), I have seen each of the countries in Europe last and blob in my games at some point or another. Though I really hope that Hannover was a mistake or is the culture group. I haven't seen the Hannover tag since I formed it 5 patches ago. I'd much rather see Hesse or Westphalia.

I used Trebizond as an example I know it gets wiped out but for me its just stupid to see Greeks in Russian style uniforms. Also I hope they don't make the same mistake with Hannover as they made with Nubians and Funj..
PS: Is the hungarian site safe? When I try to open it, it tells me that the connection is not secure.
I know it was an example, like I said, just the lulz.
I think the eastern sprites are just ugly, plain and simple.
Hannover will end up like Zaporozhie and Algiers, sprites you will never see because the countries never exist in game.
I had no issue with the site.

Probably. My corporate network let me access it and nothing happened. Then again our servers might be imploding as we speak.
These German Principality Units looks awesome. Very exciting.
I really hope this'll mean that they'll also release Evangelical Majors seeing as Prussia isn't on that list and they are a big focus of the upcoming DLC (not to mention featured on the Rights of Man cover itself)
Also, if the Catholic Majors Units are also being released... PLEASE, PLEASE PLEASE edit the Tier 3 and Tier 4 Polish Infantry, as expanded upon in the bottom two quotes.

And here...This newest Catholic Majors Infantry DLC (although currently discontinued) was a fantastic addition, particularly all the Tier I units, and the impressively awesome Austrian roster (seriously they look bad-ass).
Due to the fact that Catholic Majors DLC has been pulled momentarily due to distribution issues, I would like to ask Paradox to use this opportunity to improve upon two units included in this DLC, namely the Tier III and Tier IV Polish Infantry Sprites.
TIER III POLISH INFANTRY
This representation is very time-period generic, and for a “DLC” unit is underwhelming. The Polish “Saxon” infantry formations of the time-period were far more colorful and splendid. The whole “red-coat” look of the infantrymen looks more like a replacement for generic Western European Infantry Sprites than anything else.
Here are depictions of Saxon-Style Polish Infantry of the time-period (1700-1735)
TIER IV POLISH INFANTRY
I actually had to go into super-search mode to figure out WHERE this model exactly came from, having visited numerous Polish National Museums with extensive historical military expositions, this rang no bells, until I realized that you all were in fact using the headpiece design from the Tier 4 Lithuanian Cavalry Unit.
All of the illustrations above are of Lithuanian divisions from 1792 that served in the Commonwealth. This headgear is clearly Lithuanian, and stands apart from the iconic Polish division headpieces of the same time. The only similarity is the uniform, which after 1788 was dictated to be a dark navy across all formations, Lithuanian or Polish. I suggest keeping the existing Tier IV sprite for the Lithuanian Infantry, and include it into a Unit-Pack for Lithuania in the future.
These images below represent the iconic look of the Polish Infantry of the time-period, the Polish Napoleonic Legions in their dark navy uniforms.
Furthermore, they correlate with the already existing Polish Napoleonic Era Uhlans.
Also, backpacks are a necessity for these guys, the one on the Austrian unit would do nicely.

And although I’m a fan of the dark navy with red, here are some designs of the same uniform in red & white.
In closing;
Sincerely,
- It'd be fantastic if the Polish Tier III and Tier IV Infantry Sprites could be changed, I think I speak for everyone when I say that I'd gladly pay the price.
- Also keep the current Tier IV Sprite for the Lithuanian Infantry (when the time comes).
- That's all, and as always, thank you for this amazing game Paradox!

The new Evangelical Units Swedish and Prussian units look AWESOME! Super excited!
Also, GM_Kaiser has created some really spot on unit models to replace those in the Polish Roster!
Tier 3 Infantry (based on the images in this very thread!)
The second "Alternative" Design is really on-point, GM_Kaiser they looks awesome
And here are GM_Kaiser's "Tier 4" Polish Units
Both of these versions looks a lot better than the originals (historically accurate navy uniform is key) but the headdresses are still not the iconic "Polish Napoleonic Shako", Alternative 1 is the Lithuanian headdress, whilst Alternative 2 is certainly an improvement.
Below are images of the iconic Polish Uniforms of the day
If Paradox could fix the Polish Tier 3 & Tier 4 before they "re-release" the catholic Majors, that'd be amazing. GM_Kaiser's work is an amazing step by the community, if Paradox would be so kind as to take note and implement these changes that'd be incredible.
Best,
Everto

Funny, that's exactly what my friend said when he saw the pic.
Personally makes me think of these guys from Hunchback of Notre Dame
