Wow...Very impressed and overjoyed!
« il: 07 Marzo 2010, 12:08:42 pm »
I just happened across this wargame, and I just can't believe my good luck.  What an incredible piece of work this appears to be.  I have literally been waiting since 1988 - when SSI's 'Battles of Napoleon' was published - for a game like this.

In that time, I've certainly enjoyed a few Napoleonic computer wargames (The Talonsoft series especially), but nothing like this.  Thanks so much to the developers.

One quick question:  I'm assuming that once you complete the  tutorials, then more game modes become available?  As it is, I see no scenarios other than the aforementioned tutorials.

Lastly - while I do enjoy Napoleon: Total War's "Hollywood" take on things, it's nothing compared to this game.  It's so refreshing to see a serious Napoleonic wargame at last.

If you mean the demo, it has the battle of Montebello.  Select the Montebello map and the Montebello orders of battle.  I think you have to select these separately by clicking on the menu items.

You can play either side in Montebello and change the game options as you wish.

No, I meant the full release.  Initially, you can only choose the tutorials or multiplayer.

Can someone clarify if that's normal?

We've seen a rare bug where sometimes the first time you run the game you don't get all the menu options.  Are you getting the other options after running it again?

Yes, the option for solo play appeared upon running it again and hasn't reappeared.

Man , what a game.  I know there are some bugs, but please keep at it.  Very impressive - I've been telling everyone I know.
