Free set up option would help out the games' replay ability.

Frank, I love editors too.

altrnatives are osg-zucker games, x1 x2 etc campaign, or campaign rules for miniatures, i think.
But I have no time and no space for them

Playing with miniatures is the best
I'VE a xv century ottoman turks+serbian ally army - 15 mm .... wonderful, and very exciting to play with

But now... moneys are a problem, time to play and paint them is a problem, space is a problem too.

Your 1806 game had an editor. That was a great editor. It would be nice to be able to edit games that were already in play, but I don't know how it would be kept honest in a pbem game.

I could protect PBEM games by simply checking to see if it is a PBEM game.

Status: offline 		wow, I have that 1806 game but did not check out the editor - very cool, with all the possibilities it could open up - perhaps through an editor alone one could create the 1807 campaign even - and with the possibility of adding one own maps? one could proceed to create the penisular war and russian campaign too?

Frank, could we get a few screen shots and maybe a look at the new battle system if possible? Not meaning to take up your limited time.

Status: offline 		You mean for the new Elbe game? I don't have any new graphics, just my handmade test maps. I also have ones for Poland and Spain.

At the moment the new version of Danube is the engine for Elbe. Which means the existing battle system. I'm doing this to cut way down on development and testing time since its been so long since Elbe was supposed to come out.

As far as an editor that did what the old 1806 editor allowed, I can certainly do that and allow for new forces. But the new scenarios would have to use existing maps and if played solitaire, existing AI.

Also, if a gaming club was using your game could the editor be used during pbem games. Maybe, an option that the feature could be made available or shut down depending on the users themselves when the pbem game is created?


All sounds good Frank. I will be waiting.

Elbe, Poland and Spain, excited to see how they develop, can't wait.

Status: offline 		i am curious, how does the AI function in the game? ie i presume it is not scripted? could one have an AI functioning on a Poland map ? the 1807 campaign along with the 1813 period is one i am most interested in
