I love supply. It really adds realism to the game. If I just want to do a unit rush, I'll play Age of Empires where I don't have to worry about that.

Winter movement sounds great. Maybe you could add some combat modifiers for winter since it is a huge pain in the butt to manuver in snow and cold does a number on moral (yes, I do speak from experiance on this one)
Maybe also you could put in a weather modifier that randomly chooses weather for a battle for each season. Rain gives attackers and mobile defenders a negative bonus, bonus to defense and the like.

Anyway, keep up the info! :D

[QUOTE=Capitaine]Winter movement: Given this is a large scale, abstracted strategic game, I'm not sure a doubling of land movement costs rule is appropriate. ... Although, obviously, heavy snow could impede actual movement, it just isn't really that critical. Also, don't believe this was in the actual rules, was it?[/QUOTE]

Marshall, what about just doubling movement in certain terrain in the winter?
