Its not supposed that we resume the saturday-battle, unless
1. All the relevant players are present
2. its not too late after a 2-hour-battle and the players from last session want to do so.


Lacking in 2-hour-battles, I yesterday created a new attack-defence-scenario according the requirement.
Although I cannot be sure, if it is perfectly balanced on the first approach, I think it can be very interesting and its taking place in an area that probably never saw an intense battle before (at least at DoW MP). There was one, like 3 years ago, when Asid, Colonel Onslaught Colbert and me fought an AI corps.
We rather need 11 generals!
Otherwise something else has to be figured out.

Tadzio ready for duty too, Gandhi in doubt.

Recently I read a comment in the "Punta di Lanza" forum. Asalex remarked, that as CiC he took control of Napoleon Bonaparte in the OOB. Napoleon´s starting position was with Kellerman (under my control) and out of sight of Gerard´s Corps.  :book

This can be considered as the major cause for the unexpected delay. It wasnt wrong to take command of Napoleon rather than Gerard, cos this is the appropriate role as CiC.  :Nap3

It would have been better, in recognition of the present players and their concrete command, to customize the scenario setup placing Napoleon at Gerard´s initial position. But this finally is a matter, depending on the final amount of participients and their side/command to choose. These infos are regulary only availabe right before the session begins.   :zombiewalkright

I am glad to see a cause for the erratic "script" and to be reminded to optimize setups and details.  :Thumbsup2
