Dear Jean,

Thank so much for the kind words.

*Yes, howitzers will be modelled and available in game. You very useful notes on the same are kindly noted. Thanks.

*Congreve rockets? Hm.... I thought about that. But modelling and animation costs for good looking modern 3D characters are fightfully expensive. We need to be very careful with our (alas not infinite) art budget.
But I am not saying a no. It could come in during an add-on.

*Yes, each infantry division would have its organic 6 pounders and each army corps would have its reserve battery of 12 pounders. We are doing a careful OOB research and our game would definitely reflect that. Thanks for your insightful comments on the artillery.

*We are working on the fog-of-war design. Not done yet. I am writing a separate post on the fog of war and other realistic settings in a separate post.

Thanks
