No, I am well aware of that. What I cannot do in the game is assign, say, Davout to lead his Corps in the way that Napoleon did at Austerlitz or Jena (of course, at Jena, Davout ended up bumping into the main Prussian army - and defeating it at Auerstadt- c'est la Guerre!). These were *not* cases of...

It seems very difficult to replicate one of the key operational innovations which Napoleon pioneered (and which was later copied) - the Corps system. While the command structure definitely gets half of it right in terms of allowing (and encouraging) you to form these mini-armies, you are then very l...

I'm happy to say that I seem to be making some progress and had a pretty fun game with the 1815 scenario.

Definitely starting to change my mind! Once I learned how to set up a proper command structure, things stopped looking so random.

AFAIK, there is no such thing as a friendly AI in AGEOD's games. There is random activation, random delays in movement, random delays in engagement, joint movement mode for corps in the same army ... Then perhaps that's the problem. In any case, when I attempt to apply the same Napoleonic tactics t...
