Scourge of War Boards

G,

Sorry, wasen't clear - I WAS manually charging after they didn't go in on their own. They'll charge Foot or Horse no problem. The just stood there, maybe they were firing. Hard to say.

Check out this thread http://www.norbsoftdev.net/index.php/fo ... ng-on-mods around post #19. There are certainly some known issues, needs confirmation though.

G,

Checked out the thread. I remember it. Tried some more times to charge Batteries with Cav. No Joy. Weird. However, it does not really detract from the game. Batteries are rarely unsupported anyway. Had to really hunt for them.

And just for no reason at all, a pic of massed Austrian Light Cavalry for you enjoyment. The lead regiment is the Archduke Johann Hussars #2, with the Hohenzollern Chevauxleger #2 behind them.

This Austrian Light Cavalry looks quite fine. Regiments had 8 squadrons in columns, very good.

But interesting to know what oob do you use here.

As I know general Fresnel commanded infantry division in I Bellegarde Army Corps in spring 1809.
This corps did not include, mentioned by you, hussars # 2 and chevauleger # 2 regiments.
There were Blankenstein Hussars #6 and Schwarzenberg uhlans # 2 Regiments.

By the way # 2 Hussar regiment it was Erzherzog (Archduke) Joseph Anton Palatin of Hungary Regiment. It was not Archduke Johann Hussars, there were no such hussars regiment in Austrian Army.

N,

Used the OOB's from "Crisis on the Danube" by James Arnold, Paragon House, 1990. No, neither of those two regiments were in Fresnel's Division. Again, this is where you fall down. I would have preferred to use the correct units (Schwarzenburg Uhlans #2 and Blankenstien Hussars #6), but we don't have Uhlans, (yet), and the Hussars #2 were the closest match in uniform color to the ones Gunship has already produced. The Hussars #6 worn a light blue, or some list it as sky blue uniform, which does not exist here yet. Easy enough to change if they are ever produced. Austrian Cavalry uniform info courtesy of "The Hungarian Hussar 1756-1815," by Dave Hollins. I am working with what Gunship has graciously provided - remember, there's game design here.

OMG!!! Stop the presses!!!!!!! You are right - the Hussars should be Archduke Joseph, not Johann. Was Converting some infantry at the same time and crossed up the names. Have already fixed it.

Back to the original screed - So, in order to have the Korps in the game, (Bellegardes 1st. Korps), I swapped in different units. I also left out an entire Division, as that would have givin the Austrian side a huge numerical advantage.

N,

Also, the idea is to get more Cavalry in the game. When I do more troopers for the French, I'll add more Chassuers a Cheval rather than more Hussars. Gunship has produced only one French Hussar unit. He calls it the 8th. Hussars. Their real uniform is Green/Green. So, in the game the uniform is wrong but they still fight. The 1st, 5th and 10th Hussars wore sky blue/sky blue. Pire's Brigade lists the 8th. Hussars among others.
On the other hand, the Chassuers a Cheval had the SAME uniform, but with different facings, throughout their regiments, so they are easy to replicate.

Note - A concession to the game has to be made. Due to the OOB listing in the game, Cavalry Brigades have one regiment only. In real life they had more.

Note again - N, do you have the Nap. Mod downloaded? Are you playing it?

Hi, just a quick question. Does this mod only work in singleplayer sandbox? It works fine for me, but crashes when trying multiplayer.

Hey Leffy,

Single Player only, for now. All the running gear, as it were, would need to be loaded into the central servers before we can play MP. I have really no idea if it will ever be MP or not, as I don't know what all is involved.
