Hello,

I've just started (5 turns in) a full campaign game in WPC. Can we upgrade between scenarios in a campaign, or would it be better to simply upgrade and begin again?

Thanks

Hey Mike,

From what I've read it looks like if you're using version 4.08 you can just apply the patch. Any previous versions need the full download and are not compatible.

Good question!

The light cavalry movement ranges may affect your games in progress. If you were in a "pursuit phase" of a battle and you are on the running end of things then you might find your troops "caught" rather than escaping. Light cavalry now moves faster than heavy and medium (Dragoon) cavalry.

Other changes: PDT files were changed for artillery. In some cases longer ranges. This would affect you if you set up your forces where you were out of range of an artillery unit but now are in range.

I tend to not like to update my games midway through for the simple fact that the series has seen some real dynamic changes in the last couple of years.

If I were you: finish the campaign and then update.

For Club Games: I prefer the Single Phase mode of play. I prefer to play with the following options OFF:
