Give the ships the "evade combat" order, that should do the trick.

Well, while there certainly are cases where loyalty could switch towards the opponent (Prussians drafting in Silesia and the citizens longing back to Habsburg rule because of it), I don't see this happening in let's say Berlin (the king is drafting, vivat hoch Maria Theresia!). So what about a NM dr...

Got it! Impeccable support as always.

No, no link to see there, just the payment details and a delivery address.

I bought it an hour ago on Ageod, got an email with the bill but no download link or key. I am just too impatient or did something go wrong?

Also, keep in mind that there is a maximum number of armies you can form, for Prussia it's 6 IIRC, eight I think for the coalition. While promoting incompetent commanders away with army commands certainly is a possibility, it is also limiting your number of real armies you can have in the field and ...

AFAIK, commanders gain seniority based on their performance in battle, not based on wether they win or lose a battle. Since the Carthaginians lost more elements than the Romans I think Valerius is considered to have excelled in commanding his outnumbered forces against a superior enmy, while Hanno o...

I've had the damn thing two and a half years now and I don't play graphic intensive games that often so I'm thinking if I can get another year out of it i'll just get a new one. AJE and Baldur's Gate keep me going :) The power supply should be fine as it's 650W - but maybe it's faulty. It's actuall...

Well, try the latest patch. I Did several times and indeed the problems seems to remain/be back: Pompey loses the battles even if you have higher NM and more forces. Hell I even lost battles when my NM was at 120, Caesar's was at a mere 62 (after I had managed to trap Anthony and ten legions in Nort...

How do we know Ceasar was a better general than Pompeius? At Pharsalos, Pompeius had inferior troops, and the two didn't clash afterwards for obvious reasons... Hard to tell what would have happened if Pompeius forces had been on equal terms with the legions of Caesar. And I would adhere to Occam's ...

Soderini

Legions are as far as I know not replaceable, which makes sense as Sertorius has no access to Italia, where the recruits came from. You can buy replacement cohorts though. Losing a legion therefor means a heavy blow. As for the barbarians and even Hispanian auxiliaries and cavalry, you can replace t...

Part IV: Fortuna's Wheel Having beaten Metellus' forces in open battle once, despite being outnumbered, Sertorius decided on risking another battle. This would hopefully mean the fall of Corduba, the end of Metellus' forces and give room to turn the army north against Pompeius. Meanwhile, Hispannien...

Soderini

Not in the case of Osca apparently, as you lose some 3 or 4 NM when the Sertorians' capital gets taken.
As this AAR actually gets read, I'll continue the tale. Well, until the point when an update for the beta wiped my save games...

Part III Perpenna's dilemma With victory in the battle of Carthago Nova, the two rogue commanders could now join their forces. This would, however, take time, and Sertoius was afraid that Metellus would slip away. Thus he attacked Metellus Pius with two legions and some Iberian allies. On paper, thi...

Soderini

Part II: Beginnings As Pompeius and multiple legions are on their way to Hispania, the best way of action was deemed to deal with Metellus Pius as quickly as possible, hopefully eliminating his four legions before the infotainments would arrive. First step was to send Perpenna and his two legions to...

Part I: Introduction Quintus Sertorius was one of the leaders of the Populares during the war between them and the Optimates, in the aftermath of the First Mithridatic War. After the collapse of the Populares cause, Sertorius got himself a command in Hispania, one which was never acknowledged as suc...

Soderini

Sounds like a good idea, for when you read contemporary reports or diaries, it's very clear that sieging was a very ammo-consumming buisinees. After all, one had to maintain a continuous fire on the enemy batteries to silence them and let the pioneers work in relative quiet.

Soderini

Would be glad to help out.

Some observations: First off, I did an install over the last RC (4?). So perhaps that causes some of the quirks. 1; As Prussia, I got the message of Deville's arrival twice 2. Battle scale is not back :( 3. AI seems te back off to raiding behaviour. As I attacked Prague in 1757, De Lorraine besieged...

As we were asked to give feed-back on the newly added nations: here is mine some 30 turn in the game: 1. I've had to deal with two wars already: one with the Netherlands and one with Prussia (forge casus belli though our relations were just at -6). And it's just 1851. Belgium had it's independence g...

The current manpower allocation is more or less historic, at least for the Prussian side. If I recall correctly, the Austrians reformed their army twice or so. Not from scratch, but they seemed to have a decent access to new recruits. Playing as the Prussians, you can act aggressively the first two ...

Indeed, but let's not forget the work done on AI by someone called Clovis as well.

2) Add two additional unit types: light and heavy cavalry depot units. Why should it be possible to built infantry replacements but not cavalry? Horses, it was very hard to get access to good quality cavalry horses. Something I'd like to see is the addition of horses as a resource, along with money...

I'd go for a different version of option 2: do not promote infantery to elite. I'd even go as far as to eliminate elite infantery altogether and instead give some experience levels to certain regiments. Units that gain experience would get better stats that way, and could still recieve regular repla...

I have a simple solution for your problem: Since BOa and above all since AACW I use the following solution building depots or/forts; simply use the drag and drop function to form a lone stack with the necessary units to perform the depot building or fort building. Never,simply never use the complet...

Soderini

Found another bug, though a small one: apperently building a depot while having a sappers and pontoneers unit in the stack will consume those instead of supply wagons. I've had this happen twice when building a depot in Lobositz with Fritz's column in the 1756 campaign.

Soderini

I always evacuate as soon as possible. Memel can't be protected anyway, and to defend Königsberg you don't need Lehwald. You can add an extra garrison unit, a supply store and a sappers unit (gives a +1 against the besiegers!) which will all help much more than imprisoning what is essentialy your no...

They do, sometimes. I modded AI to use several plans d uringa long war. One year Russian will be very active, the next the reverse. The same for French and Austrian, in a lesser measure. And in any case, it's an AI. The best AI moves( and they are some really ones!) are based on such wrong reasons ...

[quote="Baris"]2. As Kosmoface said Historically in 7 Years War, Russia was "the least" performed country. They were returning to Königsberg or east Prussia to get supply. They had the biggest army of all. But they were very disorganized and not commanded well.They were mostly cossacks.(ra...
