The new maps are pretty and fit much better to the new 3d units that somehow look strange on the old 3d art.
I don't mind if it takes some time as they have to be done just once.
If you can contribute you should, will speed things up. |

| You're the one dogging the rules, not me. You're the one who thinks 2 special examples can justify to never use the isolate OR, not me. Even the manual recognizes: "Why have the Isolation Optional Rule which causes Isolated units to defend in melee at 1/4 strength? This rule is intended to have... |

| Again examples I can't follow. I surely do not know all scenarios but read complains about the usual cavalry regiment not really being able to act as recon because it's just a single unit and not even split in battalions.

| Well if you let half your army be surrounded you really have to rig the rules in your favor to get away with such a way of "conducting warfare". Such rules, like many others, do not take effect unless you're ignoring them and are playing like you're in the wrong war. And if you're constant... |

| Is it a true ford hex or just a hexside marked as ford on the map? The manual describes: "In the case of a Water hex crossed by a Trail, the terrain description will be Ford." So if a bridge crossing a water hex works but a trail not the engine seems to recognize the terrain just as water ... |
