A loose translation:  It means if you play solo you're gonna get your butt kicked.  I know I sure did.

JMM has begun adding reactive Grand Tactical AI... it will take additional actions after the initial plans.  I've only had a chance to play one battle with these changes, but the biggest change I saw was that one corps of reserve was committed.  I don't know if the guard would have been committed later, as they weren't needed in this case.  :)

I fully agree with Theodoricus.

I add my thank you for the nice bulletin email. It takes time and effort to create.

I don't regret being your customer seeing that this software is not abandoned but well supported and evolving.



Danke,
Stoppelhopser

Thank you JMM and team!

I never doubted that this would become the finest Napoleonic wargame up to now.

I add my thanks to JMM and hope to see further improvements.

A little question, which I believe was not previously asked: what do the 5 "balls" under the name of each corps commander exactly represent ? green seems to be good, of course, but what exactly do both the color and number of lit "balls" represent ?

Regards

(PS: a small doc/pdf with an explanation of the GUI changes, mainly in 2d view would be great, when JMM and the team manage to scrap a little free time  ;))

That information is in the F7 manual screen now, look at the bottom with links to the rest of the help info.

Thank you very much, guys. I confess that I do not use that view much, and the help even less so, sorry :oops:
May I suggest to sticky this info in the fóruns ?

Again, thanks

That's ok, I had to ask JMM the same question, and he said he'd added it to the F7 manual.  I didn't notice it was there either.
