HPS Marching Eagles Waterloo & Marengo Updates

[Titus]

Latest updates now available on the HPS web site. Key features include -

1 - Menu - Display - Highlight - Light Infantry option provided to menu
2 - New Rule - Routed units always have at least 1 Action Point to facilitate extraction from the combat area
3 - Routing unit at end of each game turn attempt to rally. If that rally fails and the unit Order Value is at zero the unit is eliminated. This occurs even if the unit is of high strength. Modified rule now limits the Strength loss to 2 Strength Points
4 - The map no longer scrolls up if the cursor moves to the top map edge below the toolbar buttons. The map scrolls at the top map edge where no toolbar buttons are located above the map edge.
5 - The scenario file name is given at the top right hand side of the screen. This will be replaced by the saved file name once the battle is saved
6 - AI modified to respond when enemy enter their exit area and move to attack those units
7 - Units with Order value at zero now loose maximum of 2 Strength Points at the end of a turn
8 - Rallying a routed unit is now successful if no enemy in the area
9 - If a unit is fixed when selecting the unit, only the map area the unit is located in is highlighted as the unit can not move that turn
10 - New Rule - Artillery can not fire in the Combat Phase of the same turn that the unit conducts ammo resupply

11 - PBEM mode - on French turn, replay of the Allied movement now shows both British and Prussian forces. For the Allied player, combat of both armies now only occurs when both Allied armies have moved.
