Thanks everybody, Sirs, for the nice campaign and the many battles fought in various fashion. Hope you enjoyed the game! As for me, Prussia barely managed to survive the onslaught of the fearsome Saxon Orc and this is already a great success ... Stay tuned for the future because great news are arriv...

"The older you get, the more you become convinced that His Sacred Majesty the Fate does three-quarters of the work in this miserable universe." (Frederick the Great in a letter to Voltaire) That said, given that anyway we have to govern, the King of Prussia orders: 1) new Requisitions, if...

AD 1743 Open Battle in Lithuania Prussian – Polish 48% / 43% Prussian marginal defeat Fearing to face the enemy head on, the astute polish general arranged to deploy his men in the thick of the humid Lithuanian woods located on the extreme edge of the battlefield. The brave Prussian soldiers, not h...

Thanks for your kind words, mate! The mod took me a lot of work but I'm quite satisfied of the result. In the coming months a newer version is expected with some adjustments and refinements which, I hope, will improve a little more the actual experience. Regarding campaigns, I've always loved organi...

Rejoice! Here I bring you the good news. Our most righteous armies have smote the Swedes 48-31 and 48-34 Lysimachos, so my understanding is that both of these are individually tactical victories (2 points each because it is an attack w/ counterattack). Markleslie has a minor fortress in Smaland. Do...

AD 1743 Open Battle in Prussia Prussian – Polish 47% - 56% Prussian marginal victory After so many bad news, at least a ray of sunshine brightened King Frederick's gloomy days. An aide-de-camp who arrived from the battlefields of Prussia reported that the Polish army was forced to retreat after a v...

AD 1743 Encounter Battle in Pomerania Saxon – Prussian 15% - 41% Saxon tactical victory turned marginal The news arrived as no surprise. The Prussian army has succumbed again fighting against the Saxons, whose military tactics once again proved superior in the clash between the two armies deployed ...

Excuse me Dilly, but I initially didn’t catch your point about the movement. Because you’re speaking only of pike and shot units I would like to point out that the choice to limit their movement was dictated by the need: - to prevent that their very strong melee capabilities, combined with normal mo...

Hi Dilly, no firing squad at all but, on the contrary, thank you for always welcomed remarks. Regarding the problems you reported I would say what follows. ARTILLERY You’re right but it’s a fact that the strongest armies of the period had much more powerful artillery corps than others. In fact, it m...

I need a clarification regarding ranked games. If my opponent, who's losing badly, stops to play, whato do I have to do in order to claim the victory? Do I have to wait some time until the system gives me the win or do I have to push the "End stalled game" button? And moreover, in which wa...

We did that in Pike and Shot Campaigns and Sengoku Jidai, but people complained that the AI kept retreating from their mega-armies. (And vice versa, but they did not complain about that!) It is a bit of a no-win situation for game designers, if the battles are to be tactically fun. To say the truth...

The big problem is that, under musket fire, superior units tend to get disrupted or fragmented quite in the same manner as raw or below average units, which is unhistorical. While decreasing the fire power of lesser units it's possible to make superior and above average units less prone to this kind...

Thanks Richard,

now it's all clear!

Today, in the multiplayer lobby of FoG II, I've found two tournament matches against Fury793, between a Venetian and an Ottoman army, both of which shouldn't be present here but in FoG Medieval, where there is the correct matchup against Elysium. I think there should have been a mistake and won't st...

At the same time a Prussian army is marching into Lithuania to force the Poles stopping their continuous assaults against our peaceful nation.
