Have any of you gentlemen played the Horse and Musket 2 games from Shrapnel Games?

What do you think?

What would be needed to make this engine a good game for Napoleonics?

Regards.

An easier to use interface.

Easier to read graphics.

I've played it and have enjoyed it very much. Though I agree with Bill Peters that the interface could be a little better, I find that after a couple of turns I got used to it very quickly. Granted, it's not as easy to work with as the HPS or TS series, but it is not difficult to learn. I found the graphics to be very pleasing and easy to work with. I think it could be very adaptable to Napleonics.
