"What does it take to fix this? Why isn't this simple cure not on the table? jonny:angry:"
Because its not "simple" - you are talking about recoding a basic element of how the engine functions - moving to an "action point" system rather than a straight forward movement point system. So, not saying it will never get changed, but it is not a small tweak.
Ok, I actually didn't think it was simple, but it gets simpler when people begin thinking about it, the first plane of manifestation being the realm of ideas. That being said, I'd like to point out that the best Napoleonic game out there right now is F 14. The movements in that game reflect the movements of a Napoleonic campaign and battle: Nothing happens suddenly; when arty moves up it can only deploy next turn, same with MGs, and they can both shoot only in the turn after that. In my opinion, a Napoleonic "fix" would have to be of a similar nature but also for infantry and cavalry; both would need to spend a turn to deploy out of road column, and then only be able to charge/shoot in the turn after that. That would take the panzerblitz out of Napoleonics once and for all. jonny :soap:
