Battles, Message saying, "Waiting for Deployment

[Rick]

When I attack a province and start a battle, the game move to the battlefield. I select start the battle and a message comes up, Waiting for Deployment." The battle never starts. Does anyone know what I may have done wrong? I thought I installed everything correctly.

My operating system is VISTA.

Hi, Rick and welcome. I posted about the same thing. The problem is not your doing but instead is about your probably attacking a faction that has been deleted from this mod. Out of my usual curiosity, which faction did you attack? Perhaps the Dutch? I got the same message in that situation and it has nothing to do with your operating system(I use Windows XP). The answer is either to bring back that faction or have all deleted factions in the big campaign represented as rebels. I think the latter might be more realistic given what I know about the intentions of napman and falkonfive but they, of course, can tell you better. I hope they will do something because I someday want to play this campaign but not when it is still in a buggy state. For now your best bet is custom battles until more content gets added.

Thanks. I didn't realize the answer would be that simple.

OK, for the SP players who want to add factions for the SP campaign heres your answer.

This link shows you how simple a matter it is to switch factions on and off by simply adding or deleting '//'s in the startpos file.

Be warned however. If you intend to multiplay then you'll probably get a version conflict if you play with other 1809 players so keep a copy of the existing startpos file and just swap 'em over when required.

Its not only factions that have been removed, units have been added and taken away as well, my advise would be to stick with ntw v7 until we create an 1809 campaign. The current mod has only been built for multi player games.

Please do create that campaign for all of us eager beavers out here. I for one look forward to it.
