New and needing some help

[Prefectus]

Hi Guys,

completely new to the Napoleonic Battle series, but have read most of the documents delivered with RBR version.
Still have some questions:

1. Is it correct, that to start a campaign I had to thoroughly search the game file for an exe called cp_start ??? Why is this so much hidden and doesn´t pop up, if i fire a game as an option? Have I installed the game wrong?

2. About campaign games (in RBR in that case): how are the outcomes of one battle influencing the campaign as a whole? Are losses transferred or is a campaign just a loose connection of battles with some desicions in between?

3. Since only a few scenarios are made for solo play - is it possible at all to play a whole campaign against the AI? Are there any especially solo friendly campaigns in this game (RBR) or in other games of the series? I saw that you can change AI from conservative to extreme behaviour. What does this affect? And is it enjoyable for a newbee to play a campaign against an AI? What do I have to keep in mind in that regard?

Thanks a lot in advance..
