Options and ratcheting up the AI challenge

<r> Reading through some of the recent comments of the "Negative Nicks" … or "haters" as the kids call them on social media who once more started a round of bad-mouthing this game, gave me the motivation to start my third campaign game. (I successfully had completed two previous ones). The haters ...

Now that WOS is Out...How About WON as 2-Player?

<r> Now that WOS is out, it would be great if AGEOD would consider a revision of the WON game to make it a two-sided version like WOS. While in theory the current six player multiplayer sounds great, it is often very difficult in practice to sustain a game with committed players (especially if you ...

Emperor sends troops to Poland

<r> Was having a blast in the full campaign, when the Emperor decided to send both my biggest armies (Tilly and Wallenstein - plus Marradas for good measure) to Poland. They all got magically transferred there and vanished through starvation on the long trip back (for some reasons another separated ...

Tilsit doesn't work because of issues with minors

<r> So I am still playing the same GC as the french where a bizarre Prussia-Bavaria separate peace led to Prussia handing Hamburg, Bayreuth, etc to Bavaria+ releasing the Duchy of Warsaw as a neutral. Now all this is a consequence of me having to DOW Prussia to save Bavaria when it attacked it in ...

I am confused as to how to go about naming/re-naming my divisions. Same if I want to make up a division consisting of several brigades. I have looked at various sources but couldn't find anything useful. <br/>

Can the Austria join Coalition in 1805 Scripted Event be removed?

<r> If some people like this event that's fine but this should be an option. I play wargames as I like to make my own history. Playing Austria and being forced to DoW on FR and Join the Coalition is an abomination of the principles underlying wargaming!!<br/>

I'm diving into the production system and googling approximate army strengths at start of war 1805 to 1812, the height of the French army, to get an idea of how much production is needed to ...

Diversity or one-size fits all?

This will also decide the strategies or rather force strategies. <br/>

No problems smacking the continental powers around, but I did notice a huge problem with my Spanish ally's behavior. For some unknown reason, Spain keep sending small fleets out ...

New Player in Need of Guidance

<r> Hi everyone. <br/>
<br/>
This is my first AGEod game, and I'm having some trouble grasping it. I've read the manual, which helps, but I guess what I really want is a player perspective. I'm playing the Grand Campaign (1805 - 1815) as Prussia. I begin the game in winter under very harsh weather ...

Momentum of a campaign

<r> I'm a strong believer in keeping up the momentum in a campaign, especially following up a big battle. <br/>
<br/>
In many cases, many leaders on the following turn, shift to a defensive posture (usually meaning inactive). <br/>

So, what I do is grab the next best leader(s) that's ...

Thoughts

<r> Has there been any serious consideration for allowing major powers to take FULL control of minor allies? I think it is quite ridiculous to be waging a campaign in say Italy as France, and the entire Italian army is off wandering around aimlessly elsewhere. Not to mention, the 5 unit stack all ...

Just their personal stats/talents (historical), or do other factors like weather, location, supply, unit types...make a difference? <br/>
