Totally agree SB.
Having played tabletop Renaissance wargames since the last Ice Age I find P&SC very similar in many ways.
It just needs some Generals for that bit of Leadership Flare. :D

Another vote for an updated P&S. But keep the option for similar graphics.

Brian, if you and other interested persons did not refuse to test my General mod and would participate in the discussion of it, then we could already have a couple of modules with generals in the in-game P&S library.

Sorry about that Cronos but at the time I did not think that I would be knowledgable enough but am willing to join a new team of testers if the download & game system is reasonably straightforward.

You can find the info here https://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewto ... 24#p894924. This module is quite playable.
We need common rules for adding generals to P&S modules. If that suits most of the interested players, then Richard can be asked to add these modules with generals to the in-game library. I ask everyone who wants to see the generals in P&S play the TYW MP module with generals (I can always play as an opponent) and write your opinion in the General Mod topic.

The working title for the sequel is "Shot & Pike".
