If I were to play a "trays" wargame, this would be it, but I think I've finally decided I don't like tray wargames!

A great and quick game. Feels very tactical while playing without over-complication.

After several plays it seems that game is quick, fluent and fun. However, there are some command related matters that should be improved (including but not limited to multi division (corps level) games).

Three things are wrong: Artillery should not be able to fire over own troops, they should always pick closest target and battery fire should not be able to rout entire battalions (for example squares) but leave damage to DIS 3 as highest attainable (eg. final sweep has to be done in close combat by cavalry or infantry).

So far, the best available in the scale that I need.
