I managed to get a cold and was therefore finally able to try this game for a few hours and here are some of my suggestions&comments :
- combining the units is a REAL pain in the ass. Is there a chance that we could just drag and drop the reserves in the main army window ?
- is there a chance for easier research and diplomat activities, where we could open one window and send the diplomats/research from all the allied nations without browsing the map and clicking on different nations ? Like having the national flags somewhere which would allow us to toggle between the nations.
- any new solutions to the "pause" when the game is changing the music ? Its kinda strange that the game freezes for a second or two during this
- do A-H Slavic troops have any bonuses fighting the Italians ? In real life the A-H Slavic units should have a positive bonus fighting Italians and a negative one against Serbs and Russians (back there the Slavic "love" was still alive)
- can the nations mobilize the native troops in the colonies too ? I have just seen the French event for it by now - but this was for the "home front".
- when and IF Italy joins the Central Powers the A-H should have a quite large NM drop if it cedes South Tirol to Italy.
- is there a chance to have a chance to have an optional SEPARATE central powers and entente templates with music and backgrounds in the game ? I REALLY hate listening to Italian songs while playing with A-H
- is there a chance to include some Serbian music in the game ?

I believe this is the most important remark, to ease gameplay. It should work with Warplans window too....

I'll see with the Graphic artist also how to implement this nicely...

Several people asked such a feature... something like the Reorganization window of Great Invasions.
I believe that, once the Combat Logs will be done (January 2009), this could be the next big improvements...

This could be another improvements for January 2009.

Nothing to do, sorry. IrrKlang library... it's very stable, but costly (money!) and causes this little freeze...

It's already implemented.

Not designed in the boardgame.

It should be already so... look at the War-Plans window (option "Cede Trentin to Italy").

Do you hate Italian musics?????

Anyway, this is a nice idea... let's see what I can do...

I need the MP3 files, so I can integrate them very quickly.

With that kind of "war" songs its no wonder that the morale was so low (JOKE)
Here are the promissed songs :

Another small thing: When troops are underway in a sea zone they should automatically use sea transport when the player tries to move them.

I thought it was a bug that the BEF was stuck in the Atlantic (on the way to Egypt) until I realized I needed to click the “sea transport” button before moving them further. Just dragging and dropping gets the illegal move error message
