Thanks for a good game! I enjoyed it very much. Quite the slug-fest at Chateau Timpko with Asid.

 :director "Chateu was not an objective!"

but you both guys decided to fight for it... well, as long as you've enjoyed  :smileyyea

I'll make the "story continued" scenario based on the outcome - with Brunshwick division coming to an aid...
On Wednesdey, I hope, we'll play the Orange Attack without any problems... I've changed cavalry to big units already - I think this works fine, but maybe the range is too high... we'll see it in the battle.

so currently I've set the range from 250 to 500 horsemen... but I'm considering 200-400...

:director "Chateu was not an objective!"

I knew all along Timpko was not the objective, but I did receive a courier order to take it if possible. Once there, I thought I was pinning down enemy forces while everyone else to the north of me continued west. After watching the replay I see the northern division became engaged as well.

I received an order to send a brigade to the objective and a message that Timpko was not the objective. Miko went to help with the northern battle. I disengaged from Timpko and went to the objective and found it un-occupied and began deploying my units there.

On a side-note (technical issue): my artillery unit behaved badly from the beginning. Even before the crash. I tried TC'ing and neither that nor the AI would cooperate with me. The artillery would not limber up initially and they pushed the  cannon all the way to Timpko. Only some of the guns would fire while the others remained limbered, pointing down at the ground and away from the enemy.

At the end I left it behind at Timpko for Asid to play with  :fight

Paranoid about screwy artillery behavior, am I?  :whistle


(To be fair, the explanation I've been given does fit the evidence, so I'm actually reserving judgment on that until I can experiment more. Still. Can't help but feel a tad vindicated.)
