KS Napoleon Mod 1.23 and Supplemental Maps 1.15 Update

A new version of the KS Napoleon Mod II 1.23 and KS Supplemental Maps 1.15 has been released.  The download links are in the first post of the mod thread, KS Napoleon Mod (http://forum.kriegsspiel.org.uk/t1451-set-up-for-sowwl-napoleon-games-for-kriegspiel-style)


The updates includes 4 new maps.  Two from Crikey, Russian Spring Alpine, (replaces the Austrian Alpine version),  and a Russian version of Rio Espanol, (Smolensk). Two are from Mark Tewes, Eylau, (Poland) and German Chattanooga 7.5 mile, (most of the forests have been removed).  These are all excellent maps.  I also added a KS version of the command map for the Ligny map, (Belgium).

Gameplay enhancements include a change to the artillery.  This mod stops the guns from firing when friendly troops are between the guns and the enemy and within 150 yd. of the enemy.  Previously, the guns stopped firing when friendly troops were in front of the guns and within 150 yd. of them.  Both restrictions are now in effect.

The buttons for detaching and reattaching units now work correctly.  Also the buttons for guard unit, (by cav. or inf.), screen, (cav.), scout,(cav.), and raid weak targets, (cav), work correctly.  They only appear for regiments/battalions.  SOWWL removed the feature that allowed them to work at the brigade level.  Pressing the button a second time will stop the unit from performing the function and reattach it to its brigade.
