Try the earlier Napoleon's Campaigns. Less than a £/$/€ (used) on Amazon in UK a few minutes ago and you get a paper manual.

Here's an AAR albeit some pictures don't work now: viewtopic.php?f=138&t=7475

Well I just played the Gettysburg scenario - albeit on AACW 1.06 - and got a glorious victory as the confederates by occupying Washington rather than Gettysburg having feinted a rush to get those mythical shoes.

I've just played the invasion of England scenario for the first time. I got ashore but was defeated outside London.

Good fun - definitely worth a few dollars.

I thought I would fire WON up again and I noticed on my 1.02 new game listing there are two called:

"StrFinland1808DispName" and "StrBorodino1812DispName"

Have I got an unfinished patch or what? There's no description but they start up with some forces allocated.

I visited this in about 1968. Random idling on Wikipedia led me to this - via Mission 66.

Time to play the Gettysburg scenario from CW2 and AACW again.

About £2 for a used boxed copy with manual on Amazon near me. I think the latest patches can be downloaded still. I've long had doubts about digital only games and used to nearly always buy a boxed copy but they are not always offered now. File note: remember to copy the download files for new games...

I have found the Cantabrain War DLC to be a nasty business for Rome. Brutal terrain, too few troops with too many missions coupled with a potentially deadly opponent. It is cheap to buy and offers some really challenging asymmetrical warfare experience. That said, the entire franchise is worth play...

Waterloo scenario from NCP Gettysburg scenario from AACW Franco Prussian War scenario from PON Non Ageod: Random short scenarios from Combat Mission Beyond Overlord Campaigns on the Danube Arracourt scenario from The Operational Art of War Why? Time and attention span. Also a visit earlier this year...

It's a Spruce Goose. Like PON, a game that's just too big.

Thanks Baris for that link. And this one for an AJE beginner AAR https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/the-hero-the-traitor-and-the-barbarian-an-aje-pbem-beginner-aar.632034/page-10 Ugh page 10 This for page 1 https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/the-hero-the-trait...

Oh come on, you'll only go and bankrupt yourselves with another Darien scheme or somesuch. It's not as if those Scottish banks haven't caused enough trouble already. How long before the begging bowl is out again? :) I think your time would be much better spent re-doing those AARs with Narwhal that a...

It can't be too hard to get it to display the correct version number can it? Looking in the credits mine still says version 1.0; even though the patch installer said installation successful. God I'm glad you guys don't program avionics; or do you?

Well tonight I'm in St Hippolyte in the Jura but I went via Arracourt which some of you may know from the small scenario in The Operational Art of War. There I found another Sherman tank by the road and a description of the battle which was about the biggest tank battle for the US before the Bulge. ...

Randomly driving my campervan round France I am in Dun sur Meuse tonight where the war memorial I expected to be for the French is actually to WW1 Americans. Anyway, that inspired me to have a rare go at this game - I have a laptop when travelling. I tried the 1918 scenario to see if the US troops t...

I definitely think events should be a surprise for most players - which I guess means a few developers and beta testers need to be let in on the list for testing prior to release of a game. History is a series of coincidences happening or not happening. If Franz Ferdinand's driver had not got lost t...

Birth of America had lots of short scenarios. ECW has three medium/long ones, Historical wargaming is a pretty niche market but I feel Ageod restricts the appeal of its games by making them too long, difficult and complicated for casual players. Not everybody is a genius with hours days or weeks to ...

Taillebois

I thought the regions were mostly hexes but with wiggly lines. I think Ageod should produce a wargame construction kit covering lots of eras and with a random scenario generator. The lack of player made scenarios always limits the games in my mind because not everyone wants to play massive campaigns...

Taillebois

Nice pun.

There is a road sign on one of the main roads out of London (A40) - "Polish War Memorial" - I'm glad it is cleaned.

Taillebois

Clearly some of us have the special version. I paid extra.

Taillebois

hmm... I have a Russian Finnish one too. My game say 1.03 24 Feb 2017 when it starts.

Taillebois

Well I thought I might at least give WON small scenarios a go as I never have time or patience for 500 turn games.

I notice the Borodino scenario has no intro text - just says "strxxx" in the selection box. Does it actually play OK or was it a 1.03 add-on that was never finished?

Taillebois

Good idea.

I visited Bloody Meadow at Tewkesbury recently.

The map could be the same as for ECW.

Playing 1.06d which is what the DVD box has, I can win the "Seeing the elephant" scenario by taking Richmond and getting a complete victory.

It shouldn't take a year to repair. Particularly an engineer called Herman Haupt seemed to get them fixed in no time. There are some books on the issue and one by Osprey. This link might work: https://rpg.rem.uz/Deadlands/Misc/Osprey%20-%20ACW/Osprey%20-%20ELI%20171%20-%20American%20Civil%20War%20Ra...

Well I've had another go and I think Mack must have been drinking too much Red Bull. Anyway, he eventually died (probably a heart attack) and overall the French lost 180,000 and the coalition 290,000. A very bloody points win.
