Napoleonic Wargame Club (NWC)

Col Dumas,

Sir, I for one do not understand the concerns you have raised here.

Why certain game years?

Because Prince Repnin who designed these game modifications has chosen NRC/1812 for his idea of a tournament, as is his right to do so.

As for Al Amos... He is participating in a discussion in this thread as is the right of any officer who has an interest in this topic.

Does this provide any solace to your concerns?

Regards,

Prince Repnin, salute!

Sir, i would like to take you up on the offer of receiving a game file from you from the list you provided.

I would like it to be the Saltanovka scenario.

I am asking for this in order to have the opportunity to better become acquainted with this system of yours.

i would like it to be available for me to see both sides of the forces involved.

This is not in order to have an unfair advantage in any future game played, but simply, as stated above to understand your system refinements better.

I will absolve myself from playing this scenario in any tournament going forward, if that is deemed necessary.

I am asking for the scenario because there is no shorter training scenario available, and i am already familiar with the regular Saltanovka/NRC scenario, and i will therefore be able to better comprehend the changes that are in effect.

You should already have my personal email address to send the file(s) to me.

Should I expect several of them, specifically files for Scn, Oob, Pdt, and Map?

Thank you for your consideration sir.

Any further questions you may have for me in this matter may be directed to my personal HQ.

Regards,

Monsieur 1812 is ok but so is 06 so is 09 so is 15 why not many to have and not get caught up in just one. My views are just important to me as your views to you and if not we too can cross swords. I speck to have a choice not just play short or long games . Respect what I say as you want me to respect what you say !

vladimir,
i agree with todd and al, we need a scenario to look over to see what you have done. please release a scenario to us. once again my email is stots7tn@aol.com, also do we need to create a new folder or do these files go straight into our existing eckmuhl folders?

cliff,
everybodies opinion is important here, we are just trying to work out the details of the tournament. your opinions and ideas will be taken into consideration.

"And why Al Amos has so much input in this ." - Clifton

I don't know why don't we ask him? hehehe....

Gentlemen,
I've sent the smallest scenario (Saltanovka) to Todd Shmidgall and Marc Jones for testing.
And I'm working on a 12-turns scenario as suggested me Al.
David, I'll send the EckmuhlCampaign-in-OneScenario to you tomorrow.

Gentlemen, it would be just great, if we use the topic only for constructive conversations without any bla-bla and altercations a fortiori. Thank you all.

As for a question "why you are using only 1812?", I ought to remind you, gentlemen, which a year on our yard now - 2012! It's 200-anniversary of the great campaign in Russia of 1812 by the way! We have to celebrate it with some events, I believe.

Votre serviteur -

Hi All,
Just to avoid confusion in your ranks - the scenarios Vladimir is reffering to are not H&R scenarios found here:
http://www.nwc.albom55.ru/hrp/#

Although some featurtes may be the same but I cant confirm this. Perhaps Vladimir can clarify this further.

To David Stotsenburgh:

David, I'm trying to send you R&HEckmuhlCampaign files as promised but your PC rejects all my posts.
Sorry.

The scenarios are what Vladimir refers to as 'R&H'. As H&R was developed from the HPS base games, R&H was developed from the H&R work taking a step back towards the HPS system. In either case, these games must be played very differently from HPS. I would encourage any interested members to try all systems, but I would caution you that what you have found to be successful in your HPS games, may well prove to be ineffective in the H&R and R&H systems. You will need to develop a whole new playing style to be truly competitive here.

Also be aware that the foregoing discussion of Division Tournaments really has nothing to do with whether you are playing HPS, H&R, or R&H style games. The concept is equally applicable to all three systems.

vladimir,
not sure why your couriers aren't getting thru the lines. i have dispatched a courier to you.

Your Highness, if it was made clear to me about 1812 I wouldn't have asked why! Now that it was made clear, let me tell you that the H& R game as far as am concern are see able compared to my HPS 1812 games. Now that I hope that I have cleared up the confusion which I always seem to stare up we can all be on one page. I still wish to up grade all of my HPS games to the H&R . I enjoy playing them an I see that i just can't run over units as we can in HPS. Just like the old games of Talsolf were the Russians guns could wipe out your whold attacking Armee. I just hope we have a way of putting up National scores and not personal scores only and not just Tournament games but MPG and personal games to enrich the club.

Distinguished Gentlemen:

May I request a little assitance?
Im unfamiliar with the terms H&R and R&H

By context I seem to understand they are MODS to HPS 1812 Campaign Game (are there any available for Leipzig?) made by M. Vladimir am I correct?

If so could anyone please try to briefly explain the changes made/differences to the stock HPS game?

(also, I wonder If this mod versions are available for download at the NWC downloads link or just directly from Vladimir?)

* I apologize as Im sure there is a dedicated Post on the issue, but tought I may not be the only one following the post with similar doubts-

P.S.- Monsieur Dumas
It is my belief Russian Artillery fire is evenly matched with the French at Talonsoft´s NIR and only a very reckless commander would have his attack stopped by directly exposing his forces to cannon fire.

No, mon cher cadete Fernando Lopez Gallo, H&R (Historicity & Realism) Project is an offspring of creative activities of the whole group of Russian officers who prefer the historical way of playing. I've just participated in the research work for OOBs and donated my Unit icons for the project. If you would like to know all details of it, go to http://www.nwc.albom55.ru/hrp where you can get the whole range of infos.

R&H (just vice versa) scenarios are my personal design; they have some diversities in PDT and OB's structure.
They are "on the middle" between NPS and H&R projects.
I put a list of the scenarios in one of my early posts of the topic.
But I did not make a scenario for 1814 Campaign. For 1809 and 1812 only.
