I just purchased Napoleonic Wars on Steam. It won't open.Manual works, but when I try and play I get this message: The code execution cannot proceed because d3dx9_43.dll was not found. Reinstalling may solve the problem I have TYW and play that without problem, I also am playtesting a 3rd Ageod game...
Here is what I mean – Feb 1632 I captured Kolberg, Gartz, Landsberg, Frankfurt Oder, New Brandenburg That got me to a morale level of only 103 When I lost Kassel, it dropped my morale down to 97 I haven’t seen anything that gives me a 6pt gain in morale
I've tried that several times. And it doesn't work. (not for me anyway) I even captured every city on the board - including retaking Magdeburg & Kassel eliminated all Imperial forces And lost on victory points - The Swedes will never win on VP They have to win on morale. The only time I did win ...
John Madden (American football announcer) once said something like: Loosing hurts worse than winning feels good. I think the same applies to morale points for taking or losing cities, It looks to me like you lose more moral points when you lose a city than you get for taking a city. In the Swedish s...
The message told me to upload some files. I tried to upload file, but my computer won't let me - so here it is in its entirety: 11:33:11 AM (Reporting) User: Jeff Computer: CPOBOZ 11:33:11 AM (Reporting) Loading general settings 11:33:12 AM (Reporting) USettings.LoadSettings 835 settings loaded, out...
Excellent report. Thanks for sharing. To a few of your points. Promotion is individual but also related to probabilities. Gustavus was just not as luck in the determination. Winning a battle but losing more troops is common for superior commanders in all AGEOD games. This is mostly because they kee...
Kind of a weird AAR I know - but hopefully give you some idea. I finally realized that to win, you can't let Magdeburg or Kassel fall. So I pushed Gustavus over there with the man army right way. I sent Horn up to take Kohlberg but left Baner with Gustavus (GIIA). I decided to leave Mecklenburg to L...
I did a little bit of experimenting with the Battle planner. Here are the results Battle Planner Study Infantry Cavalry Artillery Power Gustavus 4779/ 2447/ 26/ 687 Pappenhiem 5531/ 880/ 24/ 216 Terrain: Clear Def Tactic: single line Swedish Tactic Swedish Loss/ Empire Loss Single line – strong cent...
The victory conditions of this game seem impossible to reach. I have been playing the Swedish Intervention scenario for months. Here are the end results of my most recent effort: Swedish Morale: 166 Empire: 30 Swedish VP: 3108 Empire VP: 4026 Swedish Losses: 54,193 Empire Losses: 61,843 Swedes captu...
I have tried everything I can think of – over dozens of replays and a gazillion turn do-overs even on the easy level with increased recruitment - I can't win. I captured all of Pomerania & Mecklenburg Saxony, Brandenburg & France all entered my side (though France accomplished little) I capt...

I must not be on the right setting - as I don't have that option available in my card deck. Any idea what I need to change so it appears?
I have been playing the Swedish intervention - as far as I know on the easiest settings. I keep getting swarmed over with enemy troops. It seems that I can never buy new troops - even though I have many "available" In my current game, both Saxony and Brandenburg have joined me (I play Swed...
I am really enjoying this (well, except for how the saving games works) - but have a question on protecting my hard won cities. I have been working the Swedish intervention (multiple replays and restarts as I learn). After a siege lasting several months, I finally took Lubeck. But as soon as I left ...
