Anybody want to write a minor delay-battle? I'm busy writing what is effectively Austerlitz and I have some minor rearguard actions that I need done.

I've encountered another bug.  I've posted to the Issue thread. I will continue working on the update.

Edit: 6/9 done. Ty to DoctorWarband. All that's left is a series of 3 battles connected to each other.

A lot of Ships of the Line but very little mention of other rates . A great read though.

I would really like in a few of these story's to read the heroism of maybe a particular ship or regiment during these battles. We know that the Napoleonic Wars are full of the stories of valour by particular units. That for example the 3rd and 57th Regiments of Foot at the Battle of Albuera on the 16 May 1811. Their bravery in holding the flank of the British Army is credited as a major moment of the battle that helped the British recover and bring the battle to a stalemate when I could have been a bloody defeat.

Can I be Batavaria yet or are you determined to keep me out? xD

When was Austrian Empire (or even Holy Roman Empire itself) shrunk to Austrian Archduchy only? Have I missed some events again?

Also, RIP Cronstedt, it's nice that were getting rid of strange bonuses added after the game already started

I messed up on my part. I knew that Francis II was Emperor of the HRE, but I incorrectly assumed that "that means Austria = Empire". Austria was in fact an Archduchy up until the dissolution of the HRE. Francis then remade Austria into it's own empire in order to make up the rank from Duke (technically) back to Emperor. I would edit the game thread but... FSE. 

Also some nations might get a bonus should their generals do exceptionally well. Has to be exceptional though. Like... John Moore rolling a 30 to Napoleon's 1 exceptional for example. Or a particular person winning seemingly every battle. These should be extremely rare though.
