Won battle in Hannover using Austria
Was a pretty tough battle. Especially, becuase I didn't kill the artillery with the calvary unit.
Excellent battle but unfortunately no screenshots

I managed to do it too. But I didn't kill all the enemies. After all the objectives say you have to control one of the two buildings and not that you have to cut your enemy into pieces. I simply got hold of at least one building and waited for the time to run out.
Still want to finish it with total victory, though.

Yup suppose so it is . I combine defence with offence especially with Cyrene vs brits u defend by forcing them to atatck.

I won properly, and even managed to inflict more casualties.
Won properly, english dead=more than austrian.
It IS possible to win as Austria, but difficult and there's a serious biased.

Yea the brits should have less troops i agree. And the least artillery if reality is to be used as a basis for the game.

okay Arch, the reason the britain cavalry beat the Austrian cavalry is because they had twice as many IN THIS GAME, and no, I don't think there should be less Britains, because this is a demo, and the Britain side is considered easy, because they have more guys than Austria, so if you play on the Austrian side of the battle, you would be at a disadvantage, understand?

Exactly the point. Hanover ,britan easy. Cyrene , britan medium. Cyrene ,Austria hard. Hanover , Austria very hard.At least I think that is what the difficulty levels are in comparision to each other.

Yup but i am sure they meant that so you could have all the difficulty levels.

No I think they planned it. Maybe I am over thinking. Does it really matter we got all the difficulties. Or so we think maybe there is battles ridiculously hard.

Don't forget in the game you'll create your own style of armies, and most people don't send weak little armies like austria out to fight, and if they did against an Army like Britains and had any sense, they'd retreat, get reinforcements and launch a counterattack on an esposed British province or position.

Tis true. But sometimes isolated units can change wars. Like a brit regiment only two survivours. In korean war stood on hill and defeated whole korean army. Brings a tear to my patrotic eye.

If you guys look at it, the units are the exact same, grenadiers=grenadiers, Black Watch=Royal Guard, Grenzers=Light Infantry, Jagers=Riflemen, Line Infantry=Musketeers, look at it. The demo is just biased, thats all.

They should not be the same. Riflemen could fire 4x the distance of any other light infantary.

YIPIEEE did it....
ok ok no screenshots to prove it... and every attempt to recreate failed...
won as Austria at HANNOVER k positioned my guns in front of the house and 3 trooops around it on square mode... they defend very good even against an infantery charge.. sind 1 troop to left forest... and pulled them back towards the house when the 2 British cav came close....
I tried with my cav to get to the British arty on the bridge... did not work ..
so it came to a shoot out with the cannons.. then the AI decided to sent in all his troops in a charge ..? and they just plunged into my bajonets....
was a bit weird as normally they just shoot me and kill me on the spot..
so somewhere there must be a way to trick the AI in Hannover... but for now I amstill impressed with it...
oh this tactic was also used by someone int the main eidos forums.. he seems to have a better success rate.. lol
