Re: How does one find Divisions?

I hope this answers your question:

Having selected a leader, look at it him in the stack panel. If his portrait contains a unit type symbol in the upper right corner, hovering over that symbol will display the units that are directy assigned to the leader.

Re: Help us test the ECW 1.02 update!

Seems like we will have to replace the genera.opt, unfortunately that'll force players to re-enter their serial number after patching. Don't seem like we have much of a choice, though. Replacing the general.opt WILL NOT fix the large log problem. Seriously, I've said it several times now, the evide...

Re: Help us test the ECW 1.02 update!

There is no "general.opt" file in the patch, where the log line in question that PhilThib commented is located. I do not know whether a patch can edit a file or not. I suppose you have to edit it manually. That's actually a different problem. PhilThib's fix was for how many lines are writ...

Stating the obvious, but please in the next patch or hotfix take out the repeated main.log strings like: (Reporting) Prep'ing Slave Those repeated strings are 99% of the log and can't possibly be useful for debugging, repeated so many times.

Re: No war supply or money in Grand Campaign

The option 'auto-buy replacements' will eat up war supply when turned on. Don't know if that is on in your game, but take a look.

When I turned that option off in my game I started seeing much more money and war supply.

map scroll lag problem solution for those with Windows Defender

I was having a very bad map scroll problem with the game, until I followed the solution suggested by Chrisleko over at the Matrix forum:

added an exception for ecw.exe to Windows Defender

Re: A Full Campaign played... two years after my first.

Very interesting and encouraging read. I want to start a campaign now, in that rather sandbox mode. If one does not play Napoleon as intent on unprovoked conquest, but instead simply wanting to safeguard his empire and extend his reforms/restructuring, will the AI offer a challenge?

I will not gainsay what you have said. However if you wish to continue your current game, I have found as a temporary workaround, that exiting from the game completely and then restarting, reloading or resuming generally allows me to continue to play for a while.

My inclination would be to role-play the situation. I can't imagine the British allowing any part of their homeland to be annexed historically, so I would play it that way in the game. Come to some peace agreement, perhaps having the UK cede some overseas territory, if that's possible in the game. I...
