Very nice Carnium! Thanks very much for your contribution!

I'm glad to see that you've made progress with the Beta patches. Is the game now stable, as I was finding every game I played for review (some 5 or 6 games) crashing at some point - maybe the rail issue, but I don't know? If it is now stable, I can get on with my review - you will know from Pocus th...

Well done! It makes it a lot easier to read. Erik makes a good point, and I look forward to the finished fix too, but thanks for getting onto this.

Hi Leib :) Thank you for the beta patch. A couple of things you may want to consider, not dealt with by the beta patch... I noticed these after just a few turns of play: No Function tabs for various game functions. In previous games like BoR there are Function key tabs, or one main one in RuS. This ...

That's gotta be the third or fourth review of an AGEOD game I've seen that included a mention of this forum. It's either a really nice compliment to us armchair AGEOD fans, or it's just a really bizarre coincidence. Hi Boomer. :) I can assure you that my comments regarding the forum were arrived at...

Thanks for the new patch. It's much appreciated. FYI: I've noticed with 1.08 that: 1. units are regularly getting experience without getting involved in combat, which has been mentioned elsewhere; and 2. The strength descriptors in the unit card have disappeared. For example, GBR Strength: is now bl...

The quality of these games has been fantastic. Being a wargamer since the early 60's I can attest to the vast majority of war games being mediocre at best. It is rare when you get good games that handle operational issues well. In my humble opinion, the price of keeping the team at AGEOD together i...

Did I mention that the map is a work of art? I thought that too. It is also has the advantage of clarity. As to the unit art: It's mostly very good, but I was a little disappointed with the default general artwork - the faces seem pretty featureless. I'd prefer to see this updated so that at least ...

Is a full GC scenario definitely on the cards for a later update?

A pause feature would be nice to have for when messages come up. When lots of things are going on it can be a little frustrating to have the clock still running.

Of curiosity, what is the rationale for that?

In a recent FIW game I was advised of the relocation of a wounded leader, but when leaders were killed/captured there seemed to be no notification in the messages. Unless I have missed something, it would be convenient if there was a message that advised of the loss of leaders in battle, particularl...

I am persuaded to a large extent by Jagger's and PhilT's argument regarding improving militia DEF Fire in difficult terrain, despite poor line fighting ability. I think there is a potential problem though as rebel militia elements that upgrade (representing increased efficiency) to (continental) reg...

Many thanks Jagger.
Much appreciated.

Well here are my thoughts for what they are worth. When I think of mountains, I think lightly settled and heavily forested. So first, similiar to fighting in forests. Second, due to extreme elevation changes, I see the avenues of advance as limited, channeled and slow which makes defense stronger t...
