First of all, welcome to Captain Lancier...
General Alfière, after the Battle, the host has to send to the Supervisor a summary of the battle (participants and conditions) and the end red screen shot of the battle indicating the possible levels of victory...
He can, too, conclude the thread opened about the Battle by publishing the same elements...
For the Simple Battle Mode, the alternation is not compulsory, a participant can play such or such side as often as he wants...
On the other hand, in the Mirror Battle Mode, it is compulsory to play, on the same map and by exchanging the OOBs, one time the French and the other time the Coalition...
Major Gazfun, there is no concerns with the equity !!
It is specified well that both participants in a battle can and have to agree about the options of game...
Nothing prevents you from challenging by specifying,
for example : no Old Guard, using Napoleon Lannes or Davout is forbidden ...
Even to build you even the proposed OOBs...
And it's the same when we meet a challenge, the discussion of the options has to take place !
I indicate you, furthermore, that General Belliard challenged in TCP / IP without choosing option or side and that General Gunner challenged in mirror and in PBEM....
My memory is enough refreshed to know that this kind of debate is unlimited and allows the expression of all bad livers !
This place is there to allow all to be able to meet players and organize battles, ranking and competition are not the main part...
Everything can work, I know it, if every player understands that everything can be discuss, between officer and gentleman, to privilege the good agreement and the pleasure to play...
