Got control of Sweden. Sweden gets 30h 24i 6c. (not right). Bavaria got 13/2 (not sure if that is right). Cant seem to attach the save/dat here, for some reason. Want me to mail them to you?

This is correct. For classic EIA, Bavaria gets 13i/2c and Sweden gets 24i/6c/30h. For alternate EIH, Bavaria gets 10i and Sweden gets 12i/2c/10h/6l. There are now separate setups and data files for the two game versions. Players should carefully review sections 5.3.1 and 5.3.2 in the manual. If you want something different, feel free to use the game editor.

Unable to reproduce error? I was able to add ships to fleet in Finland during Swedish setup.

You cannot buy any ships or are you trying to build light ships in the classic EIA scenario? Classic EIA has no light ships or transports, so you cannot build those.

Fixed for v1.25.00.

When pressing ship building icon with a minor port selected, i get the following message:
"Cannot Perform Action On This Nation!"

According to the Minor Country Status table in 5.3.1 for classic EIA 1805 Bavaria gets 12/2 and Sweden gets 13/2 and 12 heavy.

Also Venice got me 30 heavy when released as a minor.

Also, just try to start as France and look at the setup. Holland gets 30 heavy too and Full corps instead of 5 infantry, 1 cavalry and 15 heavy.

Furthermore, the morale of the Dutch cavalry is 2, shouldn't it be 3?

Are you looking at the current game manual updated to v1.24? There have been several changes over the years. What I did was use the classic EIA v3.1 and alternate EIH v4.0 orders of battle to set up the different versions. I had to settle on something, so that's what I did. Again, if players do not agree with these "official" posted OOBs that are available for reference, then players can use the game editor to customize the campaigns and setups. Personally, I prefer the alternate EIH version as the classic EIA version seems to be a bit much in some cases, like the minor fleets.

The Dutch cav morale is probably a bug. I will verify all Inf/Cav morale values and make appropriate corrections. Thanks.

Yes, the manual provided with 1.24.03. Just double checked.

Yes, there are several discrepancies. One problem is that minor morale in the data tables do not include Bavaria, Denmark, Hanover, and Holland, so these get default minor morale of 2.0/2.0. The game editor does not help with this. I plan to make some changes today to resolve these discrepancies for both EIA and EIH versions, and hopefully get a v1.25.00 beta out very soon. The bug for not being able to build minor ships is more critical and that's fixed. I just need to run to ground this minor morale issue that I've been putting off for a long time.

UPDATE. Please see the EIA v1.25.00 Beta now available that resolves these issues. I should have done this long ago but kept putting it off. Digging into the data files with a hex editor to manually find and reset things is a pain.
