Fun situation in Oct 1805 ... Grand Armee occupied Vienna ... and Austrian Army occupied Paris ...

ORIGINAL: Matto

So with feature for my elite division I will choice ? Or will save Experience points for global army upgrade ?

You get to chose yourself!? Sweet! No more wasted abilities then!

Yes, you can choice ... lovely isn't it ?

So I reinforced and reorganized my Armies and want return back to Budweis ... don't know to much about enemy, so I hope do not meet all Grand Armee again [8D]

So big luck ... Grand Armee was located in Budweis, sieging and capturing the city, but then moved to Vienna and just small Corps is there now ... now I must hope, that will not call for reinforces

So it was not so easy battle ... just my 1st Army was in time on battlefield, from Buxhovens Army just one division and artillery arrived. And another problem, my forces are unexperienced and not so good like enemies ...

So I tried slowly advance with local flank attack, what works ...

I played it at brigade level, so it was just one day battle ... with sunset French army sound retreat. What is great, I captured two artillery division and one infantry division ...

Check all battles:

can you tell me if there is a way to play the game more than 22 years.  I want more years than just 22 years. 

Maximum is 23 years, so 276 months = turns. It looks enough. I never played CoG so long, but I'm sure, that if you have scenario setting like "Who will have 100 Glory points first" and anybody reach it, game will ask you, if you want continue. So maybe similar possibility is after 23 years ...

this is good to know, thanks. I have to try it to see how long i can continue.

also, i am not sure if the whole game can be conquered in 23 years.

Situation is bad ...

So my armies retreated back to Russia and regrouped. But then suddenly one French Army crossed borders and advanced to Volhynia ...

So I moved quickly my forces ...

Nice feature ... sometimes can one of Army leaders choice some advantage for his Army ...

So this battle was easy ...

But it was last victory ... Grand Armee attacked my Army the same month and won. Then Buonaparte advanced to Moscow and capture 50.000 men inside. So I prepared my Army for last battle ... last chance, because National Morale was falling down really quickly ...

It was three days bloody battle ...

But then morale of my units did fall down and I was defeated ... and it means end of war. Russia surrendered ...

I made big mistake ... playing Simple Economy I forgot possibility upgrade my barracks so my Armies were worse and worse then enemy ... really disaster ... here you can see some possibilities:

Wow, Nappy was moving Quick, that is alot faster then I tend to move (but I tend to support my attacks more)

good info, good AAR

It takes just one year ... but it was my stupidity, last battle was really horrible, my units were useless ...
