<t> I am having problems with the game crashing mid way through a battle. I have no crashes on other games, just this one.<br/>
The battle field screen during one of the phases goes black, the rest of the controls are still visable. The sumary of what is happening sticks on the last thing it was ...

<t> Thank you, it felt quite daunting to set up the vast amount of counters and decide on which units to scrap without nowing what i am scrapping and if they would be useful during the game. I am sure as a fairly experienced wargamer, computer and table top, that i and others in my position will ...

Is there going to be an option to take a pre-defined setup & scrappig of units for newbies? i.e. we can just get on with the game rather than setting up all the units first.

<t> I have only played CWiF once, had a bad time with a crash when Vichy France was created. I am concerned at all the talk in some of the forums about the scraping of units during the set up and the need to set up units at the outset of the game.

Opps! Sound card needed updating.[:D]

<t> I am getting a plato error during the boot up of the game. i.e when the green bar runs along the bottom. It gets 3/4 of the way through then the error occurs. I thought I would try the no sound or low animation settings just in case, but, when I searched the hard drive for the 'crownofglory.ini ...

<t> Is there a preset list that defeated armies follow in retreating. i.e. 1) back along the path of advance. 2) towards the nearest supply depot. 3) towards the nearest home territory.<br/>
They seem to move into any area adjacent. I don't believe this is realistic or helpful to a campaign against ...

I agree. Also imo armies that are defeated should retreat back along their path of advance on towards their home territory, NOT, further into your territory.

Good point about the supply. Absolute pain when it gets attacked and captured leaving you with no supply. I also find the pow's a problem, at certain times i have more pow's in my country than my own forces home and abroad.

<t> I am having the same problem on a couple of battles now. 2 generals on field, playing as France, morale across the board between 5 and 9. Just routed another Russian inf. I was expecting to see the pop-up, there forces are beginig to waver & low and behold it came up with both sides wavering and ...
