Please correct me if I'm wrong.
It seems that larger size units suffer proportionally higher number of casualties from both melee and ranged combat, correct?

No. Not if protection, POAs etc. are equal, and the ratio of the TotalMen to UnitSize attributes is the same.

Which units are you ...

i.e. a large 720 men unit fights multiple rounds of melee with a normal size 480 men unit, results are "draw" for all rounds but casualty ...

If I make a global mod with an edited squads file that changes sizes of certain units, say, a normal size 480 men spear unit became a very large 960 men unit, will the exported FOGE battle take the size into consideration and create less units with more men each?

Hi, the mod certainly looks interesting. Fingers crossed for Koxinga and VOC armies in the future.

For the sake of a little bit of historical accuracy, could you either

1) increase the range of Arquebus to be on par with other ranged weapons (2 tile shortrange, 4 tile longrange), tweaking ...

Thanks for the update & MP versions although tell me are any modifications you made to
Modified rules, Rules and armies for Historical as well as Campaign for bug fixes on the
11th Feb, are these contained in your drive.google.com download sites ?? as I assume
( like the MP review ) such fixes ...

Wow, much thanks. Devising such complex set of scripts was beyond my competencies.

To add some context, forced pursuit cancellation was a part of a scheme to simulate defeated cavalries reforming behind friendly infantry support.
Such behaviors - quick to retreat but also quick to reform - seem to ...

Shooting pistol value bug fixed.
MP versions added.

Both the bugfix and MP versions are submitted for review.

Existing Mods updated and one more Mod added.
No further update is planned for now.

The mod needs some balance changes and trimming of unecessary files. After that it should be good for "official release" on the download center.

Soon...

Thanks Companion, downloaded and tried it on Sunday and works a treat.
Perhaps my only question is whether I can add the Score_Undo_Melee_PushB_T&S options of Cronos09
to your Mods ?


It should, I'll try the combo out this weekend.


Ok thanks Companion, let me know how it works out using ...

I don't think new weapons are necessary, such ultimately minor differences fall within the broad categories we have. Is the musket in 1600 the same as that in 1700? Maybe not, but close enough. As for 'early arquebus' rather than inventing a new capability it would be easier to simply lower the ...

Looks great - do you plan to have it added as an official ...

A small mod I've been working on, tweaks some rules here and there and adds units and armies.

"Modified Rules" only tweaks rules and some unit costs

"Modified Rules and Armies" tweaks units and armies too.

Thanks for further refinement! Much appreciated.

So the one of the problems was that a P&S unit will fallback from battle cavalry even when not currently in melee with another unit.

if ((GetAttrib (me, "Pike") > 0) && (GetAttrib(me,"MoraleState") == 0) && (NumberOfCloseCombatOpponents (me) > 1))

Using "numberofclosecombatopponents" instead of ...

Thank you!!

It works as intended but there is one unexpected problem:
Say, a horse unit A charges a P&S unit B, B wants to fall back according to the script, but cannot because fallback tile is occupied by another unit.
In this case, A gets stuck in melee, does not fallback as usual, and get ...

I've added following ("//modded" part)to the CheckBreakOff function in CloseCombatLogic.bsf
It didn't crash the game but also did not seem to change anything during playtest.


if (flanked == 0) // Can't break off if fighting to front and flank/rear

Any good ones on Hussites or Swiss?

Later archers were considered 'light' only because their equipment was lighter than that of men at arms. They were actually quite heavy.

Because of their social status and the necessity to have them bolster the line of battle, the extent of their skirmishing duties may have been smaller in scope ...
