Me and presy63 marching to the field of battle

[Fabian]

batallion!!! march!!  im in!

[Shadau]

Not sure, but I'll try my best to be.

[General Sandman]

together we stand, divided we fall.

[mitra76]

This time I want try something different, an experiment of successive battles; i'm going to assign to each of you a division of the same dimension + a AI cavalry brigade for side; the scenario is a contest for the possession of a line of objectives; the next scenario will be the logical sequence of this scenario with the same units less the losses + a rate of reinforcements. Every of you will use the same division if no present the AI will use it. The eventual presence of new players know in advance can change the nature of next scenario  and the divisions presence (is a like a plot of a movie series)

Sandman -> division Steinmetz
Biondo -> division Quiot de Passage
Colbert -> division Binet
presy63 -> division Girard
Fabian -> division Picton
Me -> division Braunschweig

Please these are the assignements no change for reasons of side preference.

No sure for Saturday I could work on the carryover to the next scenario (the software I'm creating for this is still in test).

Shadau because you're not sure to be present I have not created a division for you, but you can take one of brigades of other players or the cavalry in the case you can join

[General Sandman]

Thx Mitra for bringing some more spice to the MP Napoleonics 

I am curious about how the experiment of implementing a sort of campaign mode will work out. 

[mitra76]

Thanks Sandman; the game has been much more tactical that the normal one (at least is my impression) the fear to receive excessive losses sure avoid rush attacks.

The software i'm working too will avoid much of manual work necessary to do the carryover (this is the first objective of this software development); I foressen a wounded recover of 50% and 80% of deserters with a reinf. rate of 10%.

More ahead I think also to a rule for captured units, where guns will be converted to the captor pieces and a captured battalion\squadron will generated a own unit equivalent reinforcement.
