There is nothing about scenarios, victories conditions, historic situation. Concequences it's hard to know what to do

I have been doing some reseach, you can see a number near the name of the town whrn you click it that is the value of the town, most the towns are valued 10 but the objetives of the scenaro are valued 500, 300 or similar.

The victory conditions can be seen at any time on the victory screen and objectives can be seen on the map as noted above.

However, your point is well taken. We should have included more campaign background in the manual/game beyond the inspiring short briefings. I just spoke with the developer and we're going to put together a separate campaign background PDF which we hope to have available next week. We'll also include it in the first update.

Regards,

- Erik

1- the briefing of the scenario gives a portrait of the situation
2- by counting the VPs on map is possible to find the Vps nedeed to win
3- the main Vps are Milan,Mantua & Turin (as in history for this campaign)
4- the campaign results and points (the 2 flags at the bottom-right of the screen) gives a good portrait of Vp of french and austrians

the briefing of the scenario didn't give any information about the number of VP, all I seen is Bonapart Speech.
If you could tell me how many VP is necessary to win Piemont campaign I will be very happy

You must beat the VP number of the enemy by 15% to win - it is stated in the manual and true for all scenarios. With double points you score a total victory.
Scenarios have different VPs for the different towns.

We are going to put together a short briefing for each scenario - hopefully for next week.
On the map the important battles of the real life campaign are marked.

what are the conditions for piemont redition?
it's look like impossible for the french to win the piemont scenario without this redition.

is there any penalty if a large force is under only one general, I mean is there any command limitation?

is there any way to force surrender of army?
why a routed army could retreat with no loose when it's attacked
how a routed army, cut from is communication line, could defeat a force that is more important?

why the power of an army evoluate during the course of a battle? I have notice than often an attaquer start whis only half is power

Doesn't the manual say 20%?
