Waterloo Long Campaign - Feedback

[von Mohr]

Hi -

I have Waterloo and see it has been recently updated.  I am tempted to dive into the magnificent looking 388-turn Waterloo campaign, where the map covers all the historical area of the campaign.  Has anyone played this to some extent, perhaps even to a conclusion?  What has been your experience?  Is it fun?  Fairly balanced?  Historical?

   The Waterloo Long campaign is absolutely my favorite scenario of all games. It's a great gaming situation pitting the vastly superior numerical Allies ( over 85,000 advantage ) against the qualitative advantage of the French. The large map allows players the ability to make strategic decisions. I have probably played this scenario at least a dozen times with a wide variety of results for both sides over 15 years.

    The new features such as being able to play Phased Play with AI doing Defensive Fire eliminates the need for a separate e-mail and no more blitz tactics. Reduced visibility makes scouting more valuable. Night fatigue reduces night movement so troops have a realistic chance to rest.

   Great game!
