Marengo revision

[EylauHurricane]

Voilà ma révision!
Here you are my revisitation!

http://uploading.com/files/c9da9b37/Marengo%2Brevision.zip/

J'ai changé, après la sortie de la patch:
1) Le Corps de Cavalerie Autrichienne de Elsnitz arrivera comme reinforcement après 2 heures
2) J'ai forcé la ligne de déployement francaise pour la rendre plus historique et réveiller (un peu) la colonne droite autrichienne
3)J'ai apporté quelque modifique mineure à la carte.

Maintenant les Francais sont plus proches aux Autrichiens et les Autrichiens un peu plus réactifs. Maintenant les reinforcemnets (Desaix surtout) arrivent correctement!
Je preparerai une nouvelle doctrine pour Marengo pour les Autrichiens pour les rendre plus aggressifs, si c'est possible.

I've changed:
1)Elsnitz Cavalry, Austria, will arrrive as reinforcement after 2 hours.
2)I've forced the deployment zone for the French. They will be more "in contact" to the Austrians, and these ones a bit more reactives (right column). Now the reinforcements will arrive correctly.
3)Some little modification on the map.

I will prepare a new doctrine for Marengo for the Austrians to make them more aggressive.

Salut! Bye!

Merci lieutenant,
Très bon boulot!

Thanks for this scenario. It is great, very interesting to play 

Despite your improvement, AI still not move the austrian right wing (it just send forward isolated artillery units but not the remaining of the corps). As previously discussed, this needs a work on AI maybe in further patchs.
A minor bug that maybe you will fix: sometimes when giving an individual order of attacking unit to a french artillery unit of the guard (the 2 howitzer battery), the game freeze and need a ctrl+alt+supp

Yes, yes. It moves only a bit. May be with a new doctrine for Austrians? I'll try it waiting for AI improvements. I didn' understand very well what's the bug I've found. Explain me better, and I'll do the possible! Bye

The freeze occurs after 2 ou 3 hours of game. Need to restart and play again with the saved game.
It was on 2d map, after a click on the unit to give order.
Later in the same game, no more freeze with the same unit and the same order.
I can't say much about that...

Eylau, If you make that Austrian Corps to damned aggressive the French may have no chance of hanging on until their reinforcements arrive.

[Count von Csollich]

well, this is the whole point isn't it?...the French barely won Marengo, and only because Desaix arrived at the nick of time... , which he paid with his life...

so if the scenario is to be historical, it has to be as close for the French as possible...

My dear Count, of course you are right, but I did enjoy winning it just that once.

Eylau, I had a small bug in the revision.  Desaix's Corp did arrive on time but Desaix himself was nowhere to be seen.  Still the French managed to save the day, I gave his regiments individual orders.  Thank you for your marvelous scenario.

[EylauHurricane]

1)It's strange! Always seen Desaix! And for the freezing in the game reported giving order to a French artillery battery...never occured to me ! I'll try and retry to look for both bugs. May something wrong in OOB, but at the moment I can't tell u more, because these bugs never occured to me.

2)It's true that "waking up" the right Austrian column for French will be a very hard battle... but may be an interesting challenge. But at the moment I can't find the way. I think the problem is in the developement in the AI. JMM, help us please!!! 

Thanks all for your suggestion and for your patience in playing my scenario!
