For the ACW this might be not that impactfull but the napoleonic periods immersion and charm of beautiful uniforms will be gone.

I'm kind of the opposite- as it ends up being all about scale and scope- meaning I think if I were to play miniatures it would be 6 or 3mm and go with that.

Mind you if you are on the field and under duress; the type of duress that you would be facing someone that has every intent to kill you -you aren't really going to care about if the other guy's epaulets are mauve or chartreuse - you probably wouldn't even notice.

I guess what I am saying is what exactly would have been the real impact on a battlefield?  I can imagine that the Old Guard's uniforms, their height requirements and big bearskins were (and did) fully intended to demoralise an opponent on sight. 

But that's just me -one can actually do both if you have the time and inclination to put it together.
