House Rules and Optional Rules

[Jagger]

Thanks agmoss,  If all options on but 4 is good enough for playtesting, then it is good enough for me.   

As for House Rules. They are very much up to the individual.

The problem is I lack the playing experience to even realize what house rules are needed if any.  Reading through some of the forum last night, I have noticed threads discussing problems with skirmisher use and scouting.  In general, the less house rules the better in my opinion but sometimes certain tactics can significantly alter the character of the game such that they can cause problems.  If possible, I would like to avoid those types of minefields.

I downloaded Phillippes graphics mod for Eckmuhl.  Wow, what a difference!  Not only do the 3d graphics look so much better but the lighter terrain tiles are so much easier on old eyes. I can see everything without straining.  Wonderful job!  

I went to the HPS site and I am now updated to version 1.15.   I also looked at some of the games.  I am a little astounded at the pricing.  My Eckmuhl, which I bought many, many years ago, is $50 today!!  I am sure that is more than I paid many, many years ago.  How do they expect new blood to build up and maintain the customer base when they don't discount old titles??  Oh well.
