My experiences so far
Posted: Mon May 11, 2009 6:09 pm
I had little time to play until now. Recently spent some 30+ hours playing it, and I immensely enjoy it.
I am playing normal difficulty and simple economy with France (1803 or 1805) for the sake of simplicity yet still struggle a bit with the learning curve.
My arty heavy Vth corps was overran by irr spanish cav, on the other hand I beat 90k+ austrians with a similarly constructed Grande Armée 50k strength(2 cav div, 2 inf div one of them Imp Garde + reserve arty corps ie 8-10 arty). Tactical battles are REALLY fun!
Diplomacy is still a bit obscure for me as is the role of personalities, did not dare to play a detailed naval battle (even though being a ship of the line fan) so far.
To sum it up thanks WCS!
