I'm playing Russia and will put my observations here.
We are just going through the setup phase at the moment

EIA comes with some preprogrammed setups and I chose the "RuWON1805_prussiansurprise.set". It creates two armies close to Prussia but they can just as easily swing south to defend against Austria. I am waiting for France to set the pace before I decide on my diplomatic moves. I suspect (hope?) that Turkey will be too busy in the Med to get involved in any immediate move north.

Thanks to Greyshaft for the great work!

Just wanted to add a developer's note to let you know that you can also create your own setups for use later own. The only restrictions are that they must be used in the same scenarios (For obvious reasons such as the diplomatic startup differences from 1805 vs 1812) as the one, in which, they were created.

Thank you

Status: offline 		Good to see it's coming along. I haven't been following the PC work much, but I played the board game some years ago, and wouldn't have minded a computer equivalent then.

One minor bit -- a certain province isn't really named "West Pussia", is it? Surely it's "West Prussia"? And one might wonder whether manpower / tax numbers will be shown in an overlay; it looks like there's room on the board/screen for it, anyway, in addition to in the province description window.

Status: offline 		The problem with giving as game to testers is that they find problems... which is why you gave them the game in the first place.
We've found an issue in the setup sequence which we are looking to resolve before proceeding.
Stay tuned.

Status: offline 		Oooohhhh!! This is exciting. Really looking forward to more AAR's and Screen shots. Would you go more in depth about each segment of the game as you post. For example, explain the set up process and how much control the player has over unit placement, etc.
Thanks and keep up the good work.
