Oh wow that is a HUGE difference! Is that available only on the latest two titles? Or just the Revolution Under Siege?

I have not played RUS, but I assume that it is like ROP in that yes, the battle screen pops up, but then it disappears, but in the message box, you can bring up the battle results again and look at it for any length of time to see what happened.

well during a turn, there is the option to check 'pause on battle' also, to inspect the report at your leisure.

I just got the game and this looks very interesting indeed. Being Finnish myself, I never could have imagined that one day I would see a strategy game which has even a scenario about our 1918 civil war...unbelievable! I've tried couple other AGEOD games, but in my opinion this one seems to be best. Very interesting historic era, and one that hasn't before seen in wargames.

OT: The map of Finland has some mistakes, I've noticed these:

Vuoski, should be VUOKSI
Kymjoki, should be KYMIJOKI
Yovesi, should be RUOVESI (I suppose)
Langelmavshi, should be L�NGELM�VESI
Kironjoki, should be KYR�JOKI

The lake located south of city of Joensuu is definitely not 'Lake Orivesi', but this really doesn't matter...

This game would be terrific if it was supported better. Official patch 1.03 screws up the weather (no seasonal weather changes!) and degenerates AI behaviour. Obviously it wasn't tested before release. From AGEOD forums you can see that the developers don't care.

Have to add that playing with version 1.02b is a lot of fun, and with upcoming Fatal Years Mod it should be even more so.

I can see now what you mean and I totally agree. Updated my RUS yesterday to version 1.03, played Finnish civil war scenario couple of times through - it's always winter! Let's hope that they will solve these problems in the future... BTW, the other AGEOD title Pride of Nations seems to be a game with huge potential within it, but it is obvious that they released this one way too early - even after 1.02 patch game crashes and sometimes it will not even start!
