Europe at War 1800AD

[Modo44]

You might want to try a new concept on the Brits: Artillery.

[Paddy]

hahahaha

if the buggers would just stand still

their Cavalry are vicous, and free roaming

Their Ships of the Line barrage my coasts

and the Life Guards are quite a disaster to come against unless in quite a stack

[Modo44]

I know what you mean. My Hussars have similar trouble with the Ottoman Janissaries. Only big stacks, or Armies can move forward.

Artillery does good on defense, though - weakening them to the point, where they can be killed easier.

which only encourages my spearchuckers to keep faith

Mar 1806 to Lord Modo

Terrible news! The Prussians have RAZED Kiev, and taken Smolensk. That is the fifth city, that falls to them! I think it is time for the Tzar to start drafing units...

We have taken out two of the four Janissaries, that were sitting in Chrisinau. Hopefully, the French force can take the city now. We also plan to liberate Mostar soon. This will probably end the Austrian war with the Ottomen.

March 1806 to Grandpa Troll.

Please note that it is still a long hike for my lads to get to Chrisinau, but we are on our way across the mountains

They look like they are sitting right next to the city. Is somebody perhaps using a PBEM bug? You know, the one about automatic movement for the last player in the turn order...

[Paddy]

wel they were on their way for a while, so they may have finally landed

one hopes they have not caught any bugs, if I have told them once I have told them a thousand times...

no chasing butterflies while marching off to war

[Modo44]

The auto movement is bugged in PBEMs, and the last player in the turn order gets double moves if using it. Don't cheat, Paddy.

[Paddy]

ahh they may get a double move, but they are not able to move next turn, so if they are not blocking a unit or some thing like that, then it is not a cheat

[Modo44]

If you get them to defend a city a turn earlier, that is very well a cheat...

[Paddy]

I know what ya mean, but that is not what has happened here is it

They were just marching across a desolate mountain range in stack

[Grandpa Troll]

you can cheat here?

hmm...

sad state of affairs I tell ya

March 1806 off to Paddy

[Paddy]

hahaha oh Modo is quite the stirrer too

The war against the English is getting worse in Spain.
Two of my Cavalry Armies have been decimated from 13hps, to 2 and 3 respectively.

My lads in the new Austrian territories are slowly healing
