Problem, no or less reinforcement units in battle

[Ragnohr10]

Hello, I've got a problem in battle, I have 3 armies in attack and in the battle, the reinforcement units only arrive when my first units are dead. How can I make that my reinforcement units arrive completely with no limit of units ?

No matter how many reinforcements you have waiting in the wings, you can only have so many units on the map at any one time. I am not sure what the total is, but it is about the size of two full armies. After that, you only get more units as you remove units from the map.

If you want reinforcements that are better than what you are fighting with, pull out those units you dont want with a withdrawl order. Make sure you set up your reinforcements before the battle so that they come in, in the order you want them. You can also just post the crummy units in the initial army right next to the edge of the map and withdraw them and you will get the better units coming in right away.

And also, in real war, yeah re-enforcements may be on the way, but back then you never knew for certain until they showed up. Remember, War is Hell.

Thank you for your response. It is really the probleme of the number of units on the map. Is it possible to change it with script or whatever like in Rome Total war ? It is in the campaign, it is often when I attack a city and I have armies back

I've seen that with Pack File manager I could modify some things, Do you know how I can modify the limit of units on the map ?

[Ville Valste]

The max units on map is 20 per side in the campaign. Some mods such as DMN can change this to double the amount.

[Ragnohr10]

I have DMN, it only give more troops in each unit not more units ;/

You must check the 40-unit armies and select a save.

[Ragnohr10]

Where ? how ?

[Ville Valste]

In the launcher, in the campaign options.

Hey thank you, I did it, I did way more than what you said, I downloaded ESF Editor and changed the values of my actual save to be the almost the same as the save for 40 armies. I can have about 15 000 men in the same army, I think it is way more realistic when you see the men in actual historic Battles of Napoleon. if you want the tips it is clearly awesome =)

Samlord54, when you edited the files, did it let you use 40 units per army on the campaign map, or did it allow 40 units per side when being reinforced in a battle ?

I play Darthmod Napoleon with the 40 unit campaign saves, but they're all set to medium campaign difficulty which is terrible - if you have found a way to create 40 unit saves, that means I can play a 40 unit campaign with Hard campaign difficulty.

Thanks for any help.
