The latest patch removes the ability to save and load armies. I am sure for good reason. Is there an explanation somewhere?

How do I check that I have installed the patches correctly? My game still shows as Version 8 on the main screen

Look forward to the release.

I am keen to have a go at Salamanca, having recently visited the battlefield.

Well done to all contributors. Look forward to giving it a workout.

I continued with Britain until about 1808 but then it kept crashing.

The real problem with the SPC is the AI in battles, but I appreciate that very little can be done about that. I also saw 1 example of blobbing, but it isn't a big concern, as they tend to sort themselves out when you discover them.

Maybe you will :P So far, the problems are mainly old ones: - Lost all my artillery trying to cross a bridge. Something about moving on bridges that wipes artillery out completely - A few crashes during battles. That isn't new - I got a request to take Hannover, to help my allies against French aggr...

I am playing through a campaign as Britain. Will post more feedback in time.

Davn, that all looks pretty interesting. What is the relationship between v8.0 SPC and the mainline game? Will they be using the same factors / engine, or is everything separate now?

Sounds like fun times. I agree it would be good to have a clear indication of the figure and ground scale.

Still happening today?

Sounds good. Cannot wait to try it.

@Moopere: thank you for your nice feedback. The horse artillery bug in version 7.2 has been fixed already in the next version, and your suggestion is one of two issues (the other one is that 7 men per gun was not enough for horse art). I will now give a look at your FX file. Thanks for this. I just...

How do I try this out Cosak? Is there some way for me to run the game without the Steam overlay?

That is extremely good news Davn, thankyou. By way of providing feedback, this is my experience with 7.2. After having some installation problems, now fixed, the game still seems unstable. I have played 3 campaigns for a few years in (Britain, Russia, Ottoman) but eventually the campaign will not co...

I am afraid I am also unable to get an install working properly. Perhaps when I have more time I will try and start the whole installation process of NTW again.

Thanks to all involved in the work of development. Look forward to seeing you all on the battlefield

Look forward to it. Cheers

Look forward to seeing the unstoppable cavalry horde. To date, it seems that cavalry are an extremely fragile, if occasionally quite decisive arm. Against the British or similar, you are not going to get far with a lot of cav. Against a lot of non-square troops with low morale, I can imagine (but ha...

Thanks to all those who continue to work hard on this marvellous mod. I look forward to giving it a go.

Well done to the Lords involved. Merry Xmas.

Davn,

Good work I am sure. I look forward to the patch.

What has happened to the change to unit formations (risorgimento59) changes? Are they planned for this or any subsequent patch?

Thanks

Some people advise me that France is considered 22. I don't know if that is true, but I prefer them on the whole to most other '20's.

would it be possible to move (slowly) the fix artilleries like rockets laucher and ottoman mortars (and buff them a bit)? They are useless by now. Same for artilleries which have lost their limbers, hopefully it will prevent some annoying suicide charge on guns. Actually, I agree that this would be...

Within the limits of the game engine I think the square is about as good as it gets. The only major discrepancy concerning the combined arms aspect is that artillery is not as effective as it should be against the hollow square. It would be nice if it were possible to increase artillery effectivene...

Good video. Nasty situation for the Russian.
