fixed artillery reinforcements
Firstly would like to say hello
been following this forum for well quite a few years now but never had the need to post a question or a even a gripe. Always the questions i had were already posted and answered.
This is my first post and its a windge
, coming into the last few years of my British campaign, taken all the needed provinces i require for the win, apart for the last 2 in India....so taking them was no problem, i have 3 stacks so iam thinking my first go on the campaign has been good fun, hard in places, frustrating with bugs ect but overall impressed..... with just a few years to go i will just end turn until i win, but on my next turn the marathas sent in 4 stacks with 2 smaller stacks, iam thinking i have a fort with 2 stacks so i should be good with another stack 1 turn away. They attack..... with 5000+ troops against my 2stacks of 1100 ish. Was doing fantastic concentrating very hard on the job at hand, first wave routed, 2nd wave routed, i had some routes at this time, with my first of my reinforcements iam thinking i could do this, my army is being wittled down but iam not getting any more reinforcements, with just 10mins to go i have 2 puckle guns. 2 morters, my general and 100 ish linemans left, can i do it, DAM WELL NO they have my flag down and thers up with 3 mins left on my battle timer......gutted and angry why i did not get all my reinforcements. I had a heroic defeat killing 4700 and losing 1100. So i reload and restart the fight making sure my reinforcing army is on ready to come in, the fight goes as above but with most of my units routing and not getting reinforcements again iam thinking what am i doing wrong....a bug maybe.... 2 hours have passed and i reload for a 3rd time. I inspect my reinforceing army and it all looks good, i have a cavalry unit first which came in, then 4 fixed artillery......so there we go it dawns on me FIXED ARTILLERY, hence i get no reinforcements at all, my troops could not walk around the fixed guns and come to my rescue. A bug iam sure. I have taken the fixed artillery out and sent them across the map as far as they can move to ensure they are not part of my reinforcements, so tonight i will try again.
Rant over

Re: fixed artillery reinforcements
I rather like that it cannot be part of reinforcements.
How is the campaign map movement speed? I havent tested it against other guns, but it should be low as well.

Re: fixed artillery reinforcements
Having fixed artillery not reinforcing my army is not a problem, the problem i had was when none of my other units come in, cavalry was first which came in, then i had 4 artillery and then several linesman, i presume as my artillery was 'fixed' they are unable to reinforce me but i still had several hundred men to come in....
Normal speed the game was smooth, but 2x and 4x it did slow down and jutter.
