Ratings and reviews

It is very fun playing as hannibal, I like the historymarche style graphics, and the realistic battle simulation the only major problem I have with the game is that there are a few holes where I lost most of my army and I wasn't strong enough to defeat the enemy army and I could no longer afford to repair my army, and the only way time would progress is by winning battles, so can you please implement a feature where you can camp out and wait for the reinforcements to arrive?

I recommend adding seperate commands for the army, one for the cavalry, one for the ranged units, and one for the infantry, while the battle is commencing. Also, please fix the cavalry charge thingy because even when they are ordered to hold their position/stop, they will still charge a nearby enemy unit. Also using the Sarissa on your heavy infantry should only make it so that it's weak only in the flanks, cause it's pretty weird seeing a phalanx unit lose a frontal battle

It is a unique game, and i am glad to contribute to further development to add further features, and smoothen some rough edges. I may have come across a bug, though. After i conquer Arausio in Gaul, the buttons don't come up anymore, no matter how long i wait. I can see the bar with the date and resource balance, but the buttons that would normally be above don't load anymore. Neither can i move on the map. I am stuck. Well, i'll try another campaign, as it seems to be just me.
