The problems I have is yes fair enough the Tercio should be big and mean but it appears in game just as fast as other units. Its like the heavy cavalry fair enough they should be better once battle is joined than the lighter armoured and less numerous units but there is no appreciable differential i...

Yup Cavalry was largely uncontrolable except for disciplined units when units rout, my beef is the Swedes need to use so many units to take down an enemy when it routs it take them all with it. my record is five.

Finally won the game, the secret is keep your cavalry and skirmishers from getting in the way of your infantry (the hardest part ). Keep all your infantry together and overload the flank rolling over first their heavy cavalry and then their infantry.

Ive seen the Imperial Cavalry can rotate and charge how come my units cant do that? The Swedish cavalry is pretty useless even when I win an engagement because you need so many units to win they all follow the rout. Perhaps you can win if you get all the planets in line but it feels more like a puzz...

Whether it is age of sail (Anglo-Dutch wars, Napoleonic, Louis IVX, Batltic, Lepanto) I think there would be a market especially for the various ship packs. If it was dreadnought with the centenary of Jutland coming up I dont think it would need much marketing

Played the scenario again this morning boy the Swedes are pretty useless

I think the wars of Louis XIV, Freddy and the Great Northern War would suit the engine better.

You just dont get the feeling that the Swedish force are particulary handy especially the skirmishers and cavalry

It's a bit odd that the Saxons can't move at all, not even rotate. The scenario feels like a Death Star simulator, not sure 50% causaulties and not even disruption is reasonable.

Yup that's a major problem cavalry seem to be an attritional weapon instead of a the traditional shock one.

So basically the evolutions of the thirty years war and ECW were retrograde steps, they should have stayed 15th century and kept the pike universal according to the rules Its sounds like now you are denigrating the game simply because you dont agree with one aspect of it... In your last post you ar...

We are talking not talking about "charging" an unbroken line of horse, we are talking about infantry units right beside engaged Cavalry units flank and rear heavily outnumbering them doing nothing. Again total nonsense you can imagine the chaos if horses were ever trapped in such a manner....

My enjoying the game but...................... is when you have one cavalry unit in melee against an enemy unit and your infantry which surround the melee just have to sit about and watch unable to join in or shoot, total nonsense, then an enemy cavalry unit charges one of your infantry units it en...

Yup dissapointing you can only play one side in the historical scenarios

Great its on steam, purchased last night.

Thank you rbodleyscott for the quick and concise reply certainly the best reply I have ever recieved from on a developers board. Valid reasons for the non inclusion of leaders and once the game is released on steam you can be assured I will purchase it. If I may just add I am however sorry that lead...

Watching the demo video it seems to play like a 3d Fields of Glory except without the leaders or am I missing something?

Really enjoying Bulge and can't help but crave for a deeper and longer game. I understand AI would probably be the problem but has any thought been given to doing something like the American War of independence, English Civil or Thirty years war. System would suit recruitment, sieges and seasons for...
