First look from Bussy windmill towards Flerus

I put Ligny on stand by and took back these old files from Davidov to finish this minor battle which can however be suitable for good 1vs1 or 2vs2.

yes, this and the Duellists are always close to my DVD player, think many have guessed that from my HB manager background music.

We toasted at the new version with a hard fought Marengo 2vs2, replay and discussion at NE forum No lag no crash, 2vs2 definitely the way to go although harder to manage more units but also more realistic without all front simultaneously engaged. https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/ntwhbclub/marengo-2v2...

Thanx Chromey, for me it all started with this movie when I was 12. I saw the helicopter scene of the french charge against british squares on tv news and that was love at first sight.

This is huge...no clue how the french can win here, the prussian fortress looks impenetrable. Scale doesn't help in this case of regimental size infantry. I guess we really need low accuracy for prussian to avoid a french carnage. Maybe the battalion scenario will show a better balance between frenc...

Some decent progess on Ligny, units are done with enough details for facing variations. Roster is quite large, 221 units for the regimental scenario with Durutte's division included as option and 220 for the battalion level scenario without Grouchy/III Prussian Corps
Next the map...

Moreover, generals did seldomly die on the battlefields. I think that Lannes, Bessieres, Lasalle, D'Hautpoul, Desaix would disagree. Napoleonic wars were not modern type of warfare where generals stay in confortable button rooms. Even Napoleon, not only general but Emperor, was wounded at Ratisbon.

Ah yes Vandamme please, I need it for Ligny :) And if you don't mind Gerard as well...

May I suggest in this case to make a movie pack with just the music file, in this case fx1 will remain the same and you should have no compatibility issue. If working you can then pass the small pack instead of the whole fx1.pack which is huge. I think it's better to remove the link until you know f...

Just beta testing, Lib. Desaix is doing all the job. The rumours are that Desaix has a group of illegal immigrants doing the modding work for him in his basement. New battles, revision of stats, revision of maps and victory conditions for many battles, new uniforms. It''s just too suspicious lol An...

Hi, if you're interested also in historical battles don't be shy to say hello in our dedicated forum here or at https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/ntwhbclub/index.php We prefer to play only HB with some house rules to make them more realistic (mainly LCS and NCTFU) with a customized mechanic. Of course...

Units deployed

Both are Cazadores a caballo, my guess is that Montana means from the mountains

1810 ??? - Cazadores de Montaña de Avila (cavalry)
1812 July – absorbed Compañia de: Cuenca, Madrid, & Extremadura.
1813 June – amalgamated with 2º Regimiento de Cazadores a caballo

@Spanish experts
Any info on Light Cavalry de Valencia and Light Cavalry Montana? Uniforms? Rating?

Yes, you did the wrong assumption then. Sorry about that. Could sound selfish but I didn't/don't spend hundreds (if not thousands) hours of my spare (sometimes working) time doing HBs for a generic community. I don't get paid for doing HB, I'm not retired or full of Bitcoins like Doran ;) to invest ...

It's getting boring, you want to play smaller scenarios, you have plenty of them both on classic and HB or alternatively learn how to make your favourite as Ziuk did years ago when I had little interested in polish struggles like Gorzyce or Raszyn. I do my plan about what attract me and on my PC spe...

Standalone means only that you can install HB without needing to install classic and SP and that it will have a separate launcher. Version NTW3 v4 already has this approach although they shared a common launcher. No compatibility issues can arise if they don't share any common pack providing that cl...

While I'm open to any suggestions, with HB I grant myself the ability to judge what will be a waste of time and what will not. Furthermore what is laggy today can become playable in a couple of years. I remember buying those wonderful boxes by Clash of Arms with the only masochistic plan to deploy c...

Consider land bridges this time as an alternative to the physical bridge. They may be an eyesore but will save many eye blood vessels from popping when yet another battery is lost to a bridge crossing. Both artillery did not cross the Ligne during the battle. Bridges and roads in Ligny village were...

Sorry, cannot help in this case, HB maps are intended to be played as HB scenarios, classic is out of my businness.

I just became sexually aroused after reading this line. Vive La HB's!

Hope you did have a deep orgasm after reading about Ligny

Dont' know a lot about that extra map terrain, map is fixed 2048*2048 metres, but Waterloo with 225 units is still playable 2vs2 with some acceptable lag so Ligny will be as well.
