Why did generals lead from the front?

<t>I guess I know why (morale, tradition, honour and such things) but thinking of the horrendous casualty rates among officers, why didn't someone ever stop and think if it really was a good idea to have the leadership (generals as well as lower ranking officers) always wiped out as the first?<br/> ...

Re: Possible to remap keys?

Thanks, I now have the speed buttons tied to insert/delete instead.
Works fine!
I might look into a complete conversion later on.
Will post it if I get it done.

Possible to remap keys?

I'm using a Scandinavian keyboard so the speed up/down keys (=, +) are not working.
Setting my keyboard up as an American keyboard layout in Windows is unfortunately not an option.
So it would be really nice if it was possible to remap these keys...

No ALT-TAB out of game?

<t>Asked about this in the 'observations' thread, but it drowned there...<br/> <br/> I can't seem to ALT-TAB out of the game.<br/> The windows button doesn't work either.<br/> Sounds like a small thing, but to me it's pretty important as I'm not going to be playing much without this working (long st...

Re: A bit fiddly getting men into cover?

I agree, this is a little more trouble than it should be.
I don't think it would hurt gameplay to simply expand the 'fence-area' so it would be easier to hit with your units.

Re:Observations after playing the tutorial

Hm. Maybe.
But I had three regiments firing at the rebel regiment from three different angles, so it doesn't sound likely it would be a LOS thing.
Anyway, I'm gonna try it again tonight and see if anything similar happens.

Observations after playing the tutorial

<t>Game overall looking very promising.<br/> Just about what I was expecting/hoping.<br/> <br/> A few observations after first 30 minutes of play:<br/> <br/> Some regiments seemed to run away very quickly/easily.<br/> After just a few volleys, although not in what seemed an overly dangerous situatio...
