Suggestion Idea:
Several things on waterloo are quite different from other maps and should be better explained in the legend
Specifics:
1. artillary
a. state in legend that armies cannot fort from these positions. This is not like other bomabardments
b. clarify where you can and cannot attack. In some cases, I think it actually needs to change. For example, M03 can attack Huaghonot village positions, but P03 cannot attack villages on that side. That is just one example of the many inconsistancies. I personally would like to see more uniformity, but at a minimum, it needs to be clarified.
c. Since these attacks are neither truly like other bombardments nor standard attacks, I would like to see a different name used (maybe artillary fire or something???).
2. It may be too late for this, but the territory colors are unusually difficult to discern. Can they be altered slightly?
3. Some of the names are hard to discern at first, especially for the farm houses and towns. It takes a game or two to even know what is what. This could be explained better. The commander names are explained, but the farmhouse and town names are not necessarily that clear.
Why it is needed:
#1: The waterloo map is always going to be a "complicated" map. Still, there is no need to make it unduly so. The artillary issue, for example, is definitely NOT clear to anyone who hasn't played this map before. I have no issue with the change. I just feel you need to explain it better, beginning with using a different name for this new, different sort of attack and then followed by a better explanation -- detailing better just what these positions can and cannot attack AND that armies put there cannot be forted off. It isn't clear now. The name change would allow anyone else wanting to employ this sort of attack in a new map to do so with uniformity. Right now we have regular attacks and bombardments. This would be another alternative. I like it, it just needs to be explained better.
#2 - self-explanatory. Darken, brighten ??? Different colors are nice for a change, but these are hard to discern.
#3. Just a better explanation on the legend would make figuring out what is what a bit easier. It shouldn't take 2-3 tries for an explerienced player to figure these things out. .. . and I am not just referring to myself.
To all:
Thank you for your attention!
