Tiny error in English Manual

Mon Nov 19, 2007 10:25 pm

Page 11 of the English Manual has the symbols for the Army and Corps the wrong way round I think,

* In the centre, a blank, a diamond (corps) or a star (army) indicate the nature of the stack


I think the diamond and star are the wrong way round (or the corps and army! :D )

Sorry, but I think that is the way it is supposed to be. Remember that this game comes from the same engine as AACW. In the ACW, the diamond was a union Corps symbol, I believe.

Currently, star = corps, diamond = army...in NCP !
So manual isn't wrong.

You can see also if it is a corps or an army with the small icon (for example, representing an eagle for the French ) above the unit panel ( 2D or 3D the same):
Independant force : common eagle icon.
Corps : eagle icon surrounded by a thin yellow/gold line.
army: eagle icon surrounded by a small yellow/gold "laurel crown".

But the manual says...
* In the centre, a blank, a diamond (corps) or a star (army) indicate the nature of the stack


Which is exactly the opposite of what you posted...

It's really no biggie, I worked it out in a few seconds...

Oh and Tondu, thanks for the heads up on this game on the Battlefront boards, it's a cracker...

Sorry, corps and army symbols are inverted in the manual, not in the game.
"Currently, star = corps, diamond = army...in NCP !" is still true.

This has been corrected in the latest iteration of the manual which has not yet been released publicly.

I hope to make it public in the very near future.

In the meantime, I'd like to ask that any problems with the manual be brought to my attention personally (in addition to being posted here on the forums). I only ask this because it's likely that I'll miss random postings and can't always get to all the forum threads in a timely fashion.

Post here first... but please send manual issues to me at:

laurence@laurencerussell.com

Thank you,
Laurence
