    Default 40 units stack and reinforcements ?

    Hi I m about to try out 40 units stack in multiplayer campaign.

    How does the reinforcement is impact ?

    1 if I have a 40 units stack + a 20 units stack in reinforcement with units will my reinforcements come when I reach 39 units or 19 units ?

    2 if I ve got 2 armies of 20 units each will reinforcement come right away ( 40 units to deploy ) or will they arrive from the start off map or will they come only when I reach 19 units ?

    If there is such problem do you know if mods are under development to solve this problem ? I m a software dev myself so if I could have details I offer my help.

    Regards

    Uhh, are you talking about the reinforcing system?

    Well, one stack is 20, that's all you can have on a battle field at once. Say one unit routes, that unit is replaced with the first unit of the reinforcing army.

    Auto-resolves, the casualties are evenly spread out.

    No no if you edit your savegame in NTW you can change the limit of units per stack !
    It works for navies aswell.

    And there is a mod to change the ui icons size to let you see up to 40 units in a stack.

    Without this mod you can t see the full list of your unit in the campaign and in battle.

    Well we will try it this morning , I ll let you how it went.

    IIRC, with 40 unit stacks you'll still need to wait until you have <20 on the field before reinforcements come in. Some other things can screwed up as well (grouping, for instance).

    Ok thank there is no solution for it ?

    Another problem I can only autoresolve if I ve got more than 20 units in my army in multiplayer campaign is it normal ? Any solution ?

    Edit :

    It s fine now ! It worked it seems you have to wait for the next turn to be able to fight with more than 20 units.

    It s amazing ! I fought a battle 40 French against 40 Austrian it was so wonderful ! Have my best total war experience so far I m completly back To NTW !
    Don t care anymore with they fix the stw2 multiplayer campaign if yes I ll buy fots later if not the I don't care NTW multiplayer campaign is te best ! Let s just hope the CAI mod will do rest but we ll try it later when we will start a new campaign.

    it s so Great ! I just would really like to know if the reinforcement system can be change to allow reinforcement to come if you have less than 40 units but that s all I need to find.

    Anyone has an idea if this data is store in a file and if yes which one ? what do I need to change ?
