As previously reported, most of the scenarios from BOA have been converted to WIA (this is in addition to the new scenarios introduced, as the 1812 Campaign). In particular, the entire 1755 campaign, as well as the 1756 Montcalm and 1759 Annus Mirablis scenarios have been completely overhauled. The...

Indeed (the disband and distance unload buttons)! Great stuff, though wish these could be retrofitted to NCP - maybe in a new patch?

oxford_guy

All good news, though I wish there was coverage of "King George's War" (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_George's_War ) and "Queen Anne's War" (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_Anne's_War ) and "King William's War" ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_William%27s_War ), would also be nic...

I have now completed the Prussian scenario and started the Trafalgar Scenario on the demo 1.01a and I am having problems receiving reinforcements. The 'available replacements' tab has lots available and I have a surplus of conscripts but even if I leave an army in a high level city that is well sup...

What are the conditions to be able to promote a leader? When it says "Promotable - Yes" does that mean the leader could be promoted right away? If so, I can't seem to do this - what other conditions must be met before you can promote a leader? Thanks

Besides, the stripe where his name is will be gold colored (is white for normal leaders and silver/grey for division/brigade commanders)
Cheers

Thanks for the info.

oxford_guy

If he is the corps leader you have to strip him of cops leadership status before redeploying him. i suppose this is intended so you don't lose a corps status form a stack by mistake by redeploying his leader to other area. If there's more than one two-star general in a corps stack, how do you tell ...

What if he's the most senior leader in a corps stack? Does he have to be active? Does he have to be not next to an enemy?

oxford_guy

Hi Select the leader, HQ, or support unit like medic or engenieers you want to redeploy (can be stacked with other units but not locked or commanding a division/brigade). Press the button and left click on the map area you want the leader to go (it has to be controlled by you). The leader will be "...

oxford_guy

And that it needs to be enabled (through the game-options)? I have it enabled so that in theory I'm meant to get one redeployment per turn and the AI three. However, I have tried all sorts of things e.g. putting activated leaders not next to any enemy troops in a stack on their own and still can't ...

Not yet...It can be done easily, but it is risky to alter figures without a sound evaluation... what is your suggestion?

For those who want to try it, here are the new Spanish Ulcer campaign scenario and events files :coeurs: The main (and critical) changes are: - NM required to win has been lowered - British reinforcements will always appear, even if Portugal has fallen (they shall show up in Mallorca in such a case...

My suggestion to tweak memory usage does not have a direct relationship with the amount of RAM in your system. It is related to the interplay between your graphics card and your RAM and the way your memory is "flushed" between turns. With my previous card (with 256 Mb internal memory), although wit...

oxford_guy

You have plenty of RAM, that's for sure. I only have 1 Gb and some people play (badly i presume) with 512 MB... but maybe playing form a Mac need more RAM... Shouldn't do, in Bootcamp mode it should work just like any intel PC, I'm not running Windows using virtualisation technology or anything lik...

Okay. I've got 4Gb RAM, though Windows only seems to see 3Gb of it, maybe this is related?

Have been trying play the Russo-Swedish scenario with this patch, its seems to crash (Blue Screen of Death...) more frequently than usual, but have been unable to tell whether this is a reaction to some consistent behaviour yet

Dear players, - PW scenario: - Cintra event fixed. - Tweak on Joseph arrival and Murat departure. - Napoleon now arrives in October, when the Erfurt treaty was signed. - GuardRemove1809 event was broken. - str1808CampaignBackground1 shortened for the French version only.

I checked it while playing "Peninsular War" scenery: indeed I noticed most horse artillery batteries are equipped with medium field guns......so the light guns are equipping very few units...that's the reason why I have plenty of light artillery replacements accumulated into the Replacement pool.

I can't seem to find the relevant part of any of the files for this, which one should I be looking at? Thanks

Aha! It worked! At least for the British General Dundas after he became active, haven't tried to Swedes yet.

(1) can you please take a screenshot with supply filter on of the area? Kinda strange indeed.

You can know everything about the scenarios by downloading the complete NCP database, in the modding forum. That is a great way of becoming a modder btw :) Okay, thanks for the tip.

I think I understand how replacements work, and am pleased you can see those available in the ledge, but is there anywhere that indicates what reinforcements (i.e. new units) you will receive and when? As I understand it these are not linked to replacements at all. For example in the Peninsular War ...
