@GM, Will we be able to use tactics not explicitly defined in the rules? For example, I know you described perfect knowledge, but are there any cases in which we could attempt stealth?

In any case it would be a battle of critical thinking and I refuse to fight an unarmed individual.

Even if you found a suitable opening, I doubt it would prove all too satisfying. And it might leave some nasty wounds, depending on the moral high ground's geology.

Nah. You will need all the moral boosts you can get. It will make for a much more spectacular spectacle when we slaughter our way across the countryside.

What is the score again? Oh that's right. 2-0. Start begging now and maybe we won't crush you to peaces in your capitulation treaty.

Technically this is before WWI (i.e., before the onset of mechanized warfare), so the score is Barbarians 1, Roman Empire 0.

If that 2-0 is based on WW1 and 2, just remember you would have lost in both if it weren't for those English. Sadly, your union jack friend wont be handing over their Arico DH2's, or their Sopwith's, or their Handley Page's, or their tanks...Honestly, considering how much they have, the war should be over before Christmas unless you get them on your side again.

Battleships Hurl insults from behind thick walls, Destroyers beat up small children, Carriers stay back in the kitchen, and Cruisers are a bunch of tryhards who pretend to be loners.

Hey, the French didn't have me back then. That is worth at least ten Englands alone.

Besides, you don't have Hungary either. Guess you will have to settle for just being hungry.

Making a minor balancing change.

Heavy Artillery has a 20% range advantage over the light artillery. So it shoots out to a maximum of 12 km now. 1.2/3.6/12 km are the range numbers. This gives it more tactical distinction over light artillery while light artillery is still numerically efficient to bring en masse to the field.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.
