Some things from Napoleons Campaigns I would like to see (DLC?)

Well, my biggest wish is for the game to start in 1789/'93, wow what a long campaign that could turn out to be with all the early generals and invasions. Anyway, I would like to see an 1812 invasion of Russia scenario/mini-campaign - say till 1815? And the big Spanish campaign too from NCP. But my m...

Yea, it is not fun capturing Prussian cities and then find out they have artillery units in production. So +1 with the issues raised. Overproduce and stack them to at least give a little, you know, challenge. Austria seems to recover however after Pressburg. Prussia are just dumb.

Thanks for the advice. One more thing that is new to this game I have not seen in the Ageod games I have played before (using RGDs for supply was a mistake on my part), what do Supply Depots do? I mean, I have had them appear from capturing cities and things, but on one occasion I had a depot at Dan...

Supply explanations needed PLEASE!

Ok, I play on hard supply, you have to in a game like this. But...limited amount of Depots really hampers the whole invasion of Prussia thing (not modded playthrough). I mean, 75% military control, and I usually build Depots three or four regions apart, and when I run out? What then? It seems as if ...

The cost and time length of ship production needs to be balanced with all other aspects of making new Corps and Divisions. Expensive. Like you, I have only made each game till late 1809/early1810, so I don't know how it plays out after. Pretty much the UK dominates the seas, as historical. I usually...

Good questions. And yes, I think historically the French were not that good at sea, going by the sources I have read. The best, effective fleet is in Brest, the Toulon fleet (ughh Trafalger) with Villeneuve is a good bunch of ships hampered by a very low quality commander. I put it on passive most g...

Shame.

AI not the best however. I did really find WiA challengi...

Hey Vicburg. The Duchy of Warsaw event fired off early Dec 1806, but apart from taking EPs from me, nothing happened at all. It fired automatically. Some save games for you to take a look at. Thanks.

There is no reason to, you can make profit by doing the revolutionary wars game and then do Rise of Prussia 2.

There are a few AI Agents assigned, but the real issue is one of Branching Logic..... the deeper into the game, the more difficult to script the alternative situations....

I have seen Austria rebuild after Pressburg, quite well. But yes, a huge script is what is needed here, and please find a way for Russia to stop spawning artillery and supply units all over the place.

But it would be kinda cool if Ageod put those characters into the game, say maybe from 1793 onwards. Much is good about the game (AI needs improvement), best Napoleonic game on a PC I have played. So much potential.

nice to see Russia *actually* do something with your Mod. It appeared it amalgamated all its arty units into a stack, just after I DOW'd Prussia. At least competent for a change. Well done.

It does lag - but the map is huge plus the amount of units onboard as well makes it more so. Turn off texture initialisation, memory down to 10% maybe also mess with graphic settings too, like winter map etc. I have a relatively decent PC, and had to turn memory down to 10% and leave off texture ini...
