Impromptu Games

Sorry I can't make it at 1900hrs that is lunch time here.

I think I can make it

I can be there an hour early.

If I can make it, it will be right at 1900 or a little after.  Please advise if I should try to make it at that time or not.


I will make it at 1900 BST  wife just suggested that we eat earlier today.

Are we going to test the new CAV configs again today?

I can play at the usual time, 20:00 BST, 15:00 EST. I can make another scenario using the same map as yesterday's.

Pat and I were just on TS trying to get him set up to host and he said he will be there today to!

I can be there as long as Mike is NOT there LOL

KS Game Steam Alert has recruited Phil for today's festivities.

Anyone available for today?

I can play today at the usual time, 20:00BST, 15:00EST. We can do another test with the new cavalry arrangement.

I can be there today. Did you play on Saturday? If so how did it go?

If you saved Friday's scenario we could replay it. That might help in a test situation.

We did play Saturday. It does appear that cavalry cannot move through the infantry lines now. There has to be a large gap. However, cavalry vs cavalry casualties seem unrealistically high. I've made some adjustments to this and we can try those out today.

I did not save any of these test scenarios. They are pretty simple affairs and take little time to create. Today's will be on the Mufreesboro map.

That's fine. My reason for asking was so that we'd get identical starting situations. Always useful when testing.

I have always thought the cavalry melee casualties were too high - even vs infantry. If cavalry contacted a square there was a lot of huff and puff and posturing but then they rode away without too many losses.

A nice side effect about the passing through lines. I never liked it when the AI or a player parked a squadron right behind (or among) his infantry lines that could dart out at any time.

At first I wasn't sure I'd like the consolidation but now I can say i definitely like it. And it does require some forethough to maneuver those guys.

We had another test game today and I too am starting to like the new arrangement. Cavalry are no longer the super-weapon they were before and you have to be very careful and think hard about when and how to commit your mounted troops. That feels right to me.

Agreed the new Cav is a good thing.

Anyone playing today? I can be around at the usual time.

I can play. Another cavalry test?

Fine by me. How about 1807 on Crikey's latest Russian map version?

I already put something together with the Austrians on the Waterloo map.

That's fine. The pastry chefs are always fun.

I am available for a game today at the usual time, 20:00 BST, 15:00 EST.

I might make it.
