Imperator

Hey guys, Just picked up the game last night, was a big fan of Darth's Total war mods and so far really enjoyed my first battle with Random AI as the Confederates! Just a few things I noticed in the first battle: 1. At one point I had Archers Brigade on Oak Hill (I think?) for the VP point, At one point I noticed my brigade, an enemy brigade and another unit on the field seemed to be "stuck" when trying to fire, I would notice the animation of the rifles being readied to fire and then nothing would happen and the the animation would run again and nothing would happen. Happened about 5ish times before the troops were able to start firing again. 2. I think I have seen other feedback about this but is there going to be a tether restriction placed on the skirmish/vidette units? I noticed I had to really try to micromanage my own skirmish unit to keep the Union Videttes and infantry skirmish units off my artillery units. However the ai was sneaky and had the units on either end of my artillery to keep up their harassment. I dont mind the skirmish units at all I just would prefer them be forced to keep within some sort of distance with a main force unit so they can still harass but cannot end up deep behind enemy lines alone. 3. Is cannister shot muted in terms of damage? At one point I had the Videttes in range of cannister shot, but I noticed after firing, perhaps only 4-5 soldiers were killed and this was at point blank range? Afterwards I noticed the condition of the artillery was extremely low (perhaps 5% or less) so does that effect the lethality of my shot? I would have figured canister shot at the Videttes with about 150 ish troops left would have been a serious blow or at least caused a route but it was highly ineffectual. Otherwise the game is a lot of fun, and considering its only 10 bucks, and the facts I have gotten hundreds of hours of enjoyment out of darthmods for various total war games for free I am a very happy gamer today .
