I must be doing something wrong, but I can't get the Peninsular War mod to install properly.
I DLed the mod, then copied my existing Histwargames/Histwar folder, renamed the copy to Spain, then extracted all the folders from the mod into the Spain folder. Each time the computer asked me if I wanted to overwrite or merge files, I said yes. Then I boot up Spain. I saw that if I selected the Doctrine section, I was able to select "anglais" as the doctrine for the Russians. But in the maps and scenarios menus, I didn't see any of the Spanish battles.

Unfortunately I am not a computer whiz. I would PM Bibouba, he knows the path, it wasn't as easy as I made it sound :|

Bibouba and I fought the first Peninsula War mod MP today.
Every picture tells a story and I have included good screens to illustrate the battle.

Hello AJ,

You fought Fuentes de Onoro when looking at the 2D map and results.
But the minimap in your nice screenshots are those of La Corogne?

 ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)

Once again, you guys are doing a superb job. I have already done an MP with Bibouba and leave an open invitation to you guys to Mp these scenarios.  I do have a heavy MP commitment right now, because we are training for Interclan, but I can always fit one in :D :D

Thanks for doing this mod, it is excellent! Great job on the scenarios, and I like the sound of the artillery!

My only small nitpick is the British artillery uniforms. One of my favorites was the British horse artillery:

PWGM mod...

1/ you have to copy the HistWar folder to a new folder (ie PWGM)
2/ after that, you have to unzipp the mod file into this new folder
