Sad this game didn't get more attention...

I think this is a great system. All that separated this game from greatness was a little polish. A little debugging. And a little more interface and rules work. And perhaps a design module, so that people could make their own campaigns in case Frank never got around to it again.

But I see that Frank has moved on to the famed "Guns of August" vaporware project. Which is cool. We need a good WWI title finally. But I would prefer one solid, debugged game with a great interface and clear rules to two projects which are weak and wobbly.

Maybe when he is done over there, he will come back and grace this system with a fresh Waterloo face or 1813 face?

Thanks for trying! [:)] It is playable, and enjoyable...as is. When it doesn't lock up or do something weird! Which is NOT too often. But can be exasperating when you have invested several hours in a play by email game with a friend.

A suggustion to prevent ( hopefully ) lockups.

Switch off the sound effects & music. I know it seems strange but it worked on mine ( where the lock up's occurred when clicking the next /end turn icon or during battle resolution ).

You can have the music etc. on whilst giving your orders etc. if you wish.
Just remember to disable/turn off before hitting that next/end turn button.
( I leave it off which is a shame because it's quite good. )

Thanks DEB

Thanks for the input DEB *salutes* (salutes because DEB is a "Matrix Trooper" and Barbarossa2 is a lowly "Matrix Recruit" (scum))... hehehe.. [:)]
