NTW3 v9.3 1805 Campaign info for players

[TheRomanRuler]

In my campaign only first rank fires, but when i select "MP" from launcher, everyone with line of sight fires (all ranks may fire if they are on steep hill).
Any ideas what is wrong?

EDIT: I am not sure, but i think that some line infantry/militia units fire with all ranks, while others with only first rank... Not sure like i said, but it really messes with game balance since units are balanced using "MP" option in launcher.

this is still issue with latest update This really needs hotfix, it breaks all balance in campaign.

Hi Lord Davn!

Are you still active on the SP modding? If so do you plan to include more regiments to recruitment rooster? Like the ones you start with allot you can't replace later on. Is it difficult to mod that in the DB personal?
also I like to play 3 batalions unit cap for each infantry regiment and 2 unit cap for cavalry squadrons, maybe you consider this.

Greetings.

Good question, same issue here,
it also struck me right away ....

Hey i´m new to this mod and liked it so far. But does anyone know how to get rid of unit cap limit for "normal" line infantry and artillery?

Hi,
The mod looks really great but unfortunately I wasn´t able to install it.
At first it looks like everything being okay but as soon as the installation is almost done it tells me that the installation failed because of a corrupted file I think the file is something like "naval v70" or something like that. I´ve tried everything including reinstalling NTW as well as verifying the integrity of the game cache but nothing was of any help. I´m pretty frustrated right now since I´ve already spend hours on this trying it over and over again without any success.




Hopefully some of you might be able to help me out wiht it. Any ideas how to fix this?

PS: By the way before I forget it, I had no whatsoever problems installing NTW III v. 6.0.

[Neron25]

There is no fog of war in version 7.0 also game settings resetting anytime when i start the game. Any ideas?

Sorry but time was short to release the v7.0 MP mod and the SPC mod was not quite finished. The fog of war was removed for testing and will return with the v7.1 patch for the SP Campaign game along with other features.

Trying DK-N as my first campaign I had a heck of a great time trying to balance between army and navy. Not to mention who to attack, or attack at all. Early I got allied with France. They marched through Europe and I got time to build up after beating the Swedes in some smaller land and sea battles. France approached DK and western Prussia beating Prussia in several battles and conquered several provinces. I fought a battle against Mecklenburg (allied to Prussia, Austria, UK, Sweden and Russia) and manage to beat them in a full stack battle.
Then UK landed a full stack army at Skjælland and a smaller Prussian force managed to pass by me and also enter Skjælland. I followed and beat the Prussians in a minor battle. Then I went for the UK stack and beat them too. A real hard battle though. They landed still another full stack soon after. My army and navy was at its peak and I struggled hard with the finances. Still, I managed to sink the Prussian navy and scare away the Russian navy. UK navy was too big and obstructed my trade routes. Then somehting weird happened. My close ally, the way I saw it, Spain declared war. And on top of that France joined them!!! My only "crime" was to fight of France's mortal enemy UK and Prussia. And my reward was a war declaration?!?. This badly needs fixing. Or is it an explanation of this?
Apart from that, fenomenal mod!

Yours faithfully

The Denmark & Sweden factions are hard to play because they are caught between the major combatants in the Third Coalition war. The economy is a real challenge to balance with the land & naval units but so is diplomacy. The threshold for friendly relations in the NTW3 mod is 40+ points were you can deal effectively with other factions. To become close allies and have good cooperation you need to maintain your relations above 80+ points. This would include France as well as their close allies, ESPECIALLY the ones with substantial navies that could help Denmark. This can be accomplished through trade deals, gifts and alliances (with Spain for instance) which would bring the points above 100+ points.
More info & tips for the SP Campaign game is also located here on our TWC forum: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...mpaign-Updates






We suggest that you play the SP Campaign game on normal settings. The higher settings for the campaign above normal (hard & very hard) makes the AI more difficult to deal with and it will tend to gang up on the human player as you experienced
The normal setting is also optimal for our NTW3 battles as the higher settings gives a bonus to the AI's units moral and they will tend to charge and go into melee mode more often.

This is amazing release! Thank you for all your hard work!

But there is still issue of some units in campaign firing only first rank. That is not intended i believe? In custom battles everything works just fine.

[Lord Davn]

This will be corrected in the next patch (v7.2) along with other additions and improvements to both the MP battle mod & SP Campaign

[TheRomanRuler]

Awesome! Hugely appreciate the work! Thank you

Question: why can Prussians recruit Saxon Leibgarde when they conquer Saxony? Are they Saxons loyal to Prussia who form new Life guard for Prussian monarch following old traditions of Saxon Leibgarde, or did you just forget that guardsmen who guard monarch`s life tend to be bit more loyal to Saxon monarch than Prussian one

[Lord Davn]

Are they Saxons loyal to Prussia who form new Life guard for Prussian monarch following old traditions of Saxon Leibgarde

We wanted to give the Prussians an elite unit to recruit (probably could have made a better choice), as the Saxons did not get along well due to the Prussians desire to annex Saxony.

[TheRomanRuler]

Lots of monarchs employed foreign Guard units, so i guess it is possible for Prussians to recruit enough men to form Guard unit. How about copy paste Saxon Leibgarde but give it Prussian guard uniforms and Prussian guard name with nickname "Saxons".

I'll check with our NTW3 tailors to see if they can make some custom uniforms ~Lord Davn

Hi, i have windows 7 64 bit and I can not make an entire battle because of crashes... I really would want to play your mod because it is great! I also have napoleon folder in E: while steam is in C:, could be a reason for crashes?

[Lord Davn]

Hi, i have windows 7 64 bit and I can not make an entire battle because of crashes...

Try a small Multi-Player battle to see if that works. Otherwise try adjusting your unit size & graphics settings down a bit. The NTW3 custom battles will place a high demand on your OS & graphics: http://www.pcgameshardware.de/Spiele...s-card-705532/

I have a question is it normal that all units on the SP campaign are cap locked like the whole italian army is cap locked even the milittia and line inf... I cant have more than 3 full armies of 20 units and later on in game when I cap whole italy it gets hard to defend and my income gets literally pointless since there is nothing to upkeep.... In adittion when playing with Italy you cant recruit units from Rome ??? Isnt Rome a home city ? Also it is really hard to play when all units are cap locked that should get tweaked or fixed if it is a bug. I assume it was made for more historical accuracy but it does the exact opposite in most of the cases. I love the mod and I believe it is indeed making the game a better one. I believe it is going to be much more balancing and fun if the limits are removed entirely or at least tweaked for it is literally impossible to play and utterly unhistorical to have all units limitted so harshly. I could even say it is game braking mechanic/bug.

The object of our NTW3 mods is to try and give players a historical feel for what it was like to be a minor faction in a major war that encompassed the whole European continent in 1805. So no, you will not be able to conquer all of Europe with Italy or the Papal States. The cap locks are the historical limits of what the smaller factions could raise for armies that were researched and balanced from the book Napoleonic Armies a Wargamer's Campaign Directory:
