Re:An idea to prevent the "maneuver column charge"

<t>Rather than tinkering with what formations are allowable when troops are in close proximity to the enemy, perhaps we should consider imposing negative morale hits to troops in those situations. For example, if a player attempts to "column rush" his troops to a position 30 yards from an enemy line...

However, he knew of his country's strategic problems -- lack of manpower and materials -- and failed to adjust his strategic plans accordingly. Going on the offensive, even after such a victory at Chancell...

Re:SOWGB Beta Patch 3

Awesome!

I see that objective values and victory conditions for scenarios 7, 12, 18 and 19 have been changed. What are the point changes?
