Downloaded this today (love the digital download, BTW) and have been playing most of the evening. Excellent game. Very polished, easy to get into w/minimal reading of the manual. Highly recommened...Great job Frank, et al. Now, get to work on The Great War!!!

Hi
I picked up the game this morning, very interesting, I need a lot more work on the rules and system, but had a very enjoyable first battle (ULM 1805)

the AI looked very good, 1st battle I crushed 2 Corps and my Cav was sweeping around behind them, while watching a large reinforceing column coming to join, then was shocked to see them change there mind and start to fall back on Ausberg, by the time I had cleaned up the battle field and had got the rest of the forces in order and started to flank them, they pulled back to Munich ! and then the race was on, then had to outflank the Russian Corps trying to flank my main army !

it was very good, it did seem like somebody was thinking on the other side, it wasn't just blindly chargeing into my guns, if I had rushed, it could of easyly counterattacked, or kept it's withdraw in order

very impressed and very happy with the game

Hi,
I downloaded the game last night & quickly got into it. The first game after giving my supply problems to the AI had me lead the Grand Armee to a crushing victory as huge numerical superiority of the French wiped out most of the Austrian forces (246 points of infantry loss by October 20th). I wasn't impressed by the AI, but who can do AI that can thrive in a dynamic & deteriorating situation.
As a footnote, Bernadotte managed to avoid any conflict at all ! Score 1 for realism [:)]

Switched around sides for 1805, played like a muppet and still got a marginal victory as I hacked my way into Munich.

It is a shame that the extended campaign isn't working [&:]

Patch is coming soon. This will fix that and other things

Hi Delphinium
well in my post, for the game I had played, I didn't get a good start on getting my troops moving (set everything up but didn't send the order to march !)

so the AI had a day's march on me and it fought a totally different battle then once I had a better understanding of the rules

but over all, I still think the AI did a good job (or preprogramed to) of reading the battle field and then running for home when it seen it was in trouble
