I'm guessing not but does TOAW allow the player to resolve tactical battles manually on their own and input the battle results back in?

Not sure what you are talking about. An example might help.

I think he means that instead of the battles being just resolved if one can influence them, e.g. let's say a battle resolves and you find yourself kinda in Steel Panthers to fight it out.

Wow. Can you imagine playing Fire in the East that way. It would take a lifetime.

Yes, thanks for answer. Some gunpowder era operational games do this - two sides meet and then you get the miniatures out and resolve the battle then input the results. I think Campaigns on the Danube has this feature. Anyway, thanks.

As well as Forge of Freedom, etc. It would be quite a thing if there would be an interface to well, at least to influence one battle. :D

I do want to let you edit games in progress at some point in the future, have no timeline for that. I can see an opportunity for moderated games using that
