Sidenote: I thought that rule was regarding declaring war on a nation YOU had troops INSIDE...

<t> One programmer...?<br/>
<br/>
I didn't know Matrix was such a small company, but I do like the game to be finished.<br/>
<br/>
Good luck and we will wait .. .. .. and wait .. .. .. and more wait?<br/>
A few more months will not hurt me, but I might go and buy Crown of Glory...<br/>

This should be optional, losing Napoleon early in the game sort of kills the fun to be french. It makes you protect your best generals instead of using them to the limit. The chance to lose a general is very high considering the game has no ...

YES!!!

I like it!!!

<t> My little thoughts...<br/>
<br/>
Force march are sometimes used to trick the enemy. It is a good rule that I like to launch a major attack with the french - combined with the double move it usually concentrates the forces and destroy some major enemy stack with minor losses. It can be very ...

Is there anything we can talk about now???

(Regarding EiA...)

Waiting is always so boring and the expectations are growing by the day.

<t> Yes, I have seen german (Austria-Prussia) invasions of Russia, but rarely a wipeout of invading forces. France usually comes in the back...<br/>
<br/>
Only once did a French, Austrian and Turkish army invade. It was a trap to lure Turkish forces from Africa, but the invasion never went further ...

<t> Have anyone in any game seen the disaster in Russia take place?<br/>
<br/>
Napoleon invaded with about 660 000 men (that is similar to 350 factors) and returned with less than 100 000 men (including all stragglers and escaped prisoners etc). Battle losses close to 100-150 000 men, the rest due ...

EIA is slowing down in expectance for what is supposed to be released very soon...

Summer is almost gone...

Gentlemen, please tease us further...

Is that Turkey conq?

How did that happen?

<t> It would be nice if you could post those rules that people were arguing about.<br/>
<br/>
The only way I have fought with "small" corps was when trying to circle the french main army and I got Prussia and Russia with me (playing Austria). It got a lot of minor out from the french army, but ...

<t> I am looking forward for this.<br/>
Your last screenshots were very tempting.<br/>
<br/>
Also, there were some minor items that seemed wrong.<br/>
<br/>
Will the "entire" map be presented as well? Just for checking spelling etc...<br/>
That is normaly a very boring part but so important ...

Also, let us see some AAR?

They should help us even more.

Yes, I cannot agree more!

If we are to make relevant comments, please let us know more about the game, map, troops etc.

<t> I would say that one of the pleasant surprises in the game is when you lure the enemy into an area you can attack from several routes. Creating the "monster stack" for one huge battle. Historicaly this was by the way Napoleon's main strategy, marching by night and etc...<br/>
<br/>

Thank you for the information.

Possible new screenshots or AAR?

<t> I am very old...<br/>
<br/>
I remember a song like "last christmas I gave...", or something similar.<br/>
<br/>
I also remember writing EIA-computer version on my wishing list. What did I get?<br/>
Long empty evenings with a beer... and EUII.<br/>

Marshall, finish the game in your ...

Applied as a scenario for the original EiA.<br/>
Very doable, many nations and lot of space.<br/>
