GAME PLAY CHANGES
Since the Manual and the Technical Supplement were written we have
added a number of enhancements and changes to Fields of Glory.

Army Changes
To add more national flavour to each army the unit names have been
translated into their national languages.  This did, however,
create an inconsistency in the French army where corps numbers are
displayed as Roman Numerals rather than by French notations such
as 2‚me Corps.

Command Changes
As well as the "Rejoin Command" order (see the Technical
Supplement), we have added an order to allow commanders to bring
all their detached units back under their direct command. When a 
"Reattach Units" is given by a commander all previously detached
units will return to the direct control of the commander and will
manoeuvre back to his position. The commander will then reorganise
his units, before continuing with his Operational Order.

Routing Brigades
Brigades that have routed may rally and return to their commander
for further orders. A message is displayed saying that the brigade
has rejoined its commander. The next time their commander is
ordered they will absorb the returned brigade as for Reattach
Units. The brigade may also be ordered independently by the player.

Army and Wing Commanders
These commanders may be moved by the player around the battlefield
in order to inspire their troops. To move an Army or Wing Commander
open his order box then click on the desired destination point. 

Occupying Buildings
Infantry can be ordered to occupy buildings by selecting a building
as their destination point. Once the infantry reach the destination
they will enter the building and gain the benefits of the cover of
the building from enemy fire and assaults.

Ending a Game
The game will automatically finish when 70% of either side have
been killed or permanently routed, or at 21:30, whichever occurs
first.

Reviewing the Game
You can review the current level of victory by pressing the R key.

Delayed Orders
Orders are always passed from the army commander to his subordinate
commanders and then to the unit involved. At Guard difficulty level
the delivery of an order is delayed by the time it takes for an
order to travel down the command structure. This means that it will
take a while for a unit to respond to your direct orders. Be
patient, the unit will respond when the order reaches it. Until
then the unit's order box will display its previous order.

Issuing Lots of Orders
On slower machines when you issue lots of orders at the start of
the large battles (Waterloo and Ligny), the game will slow down as
the game's AI transmits the orders. To avoid this problem issue
your initial orders to your Corps commanders then issue more direct
orders to divisions and brigades as they move into contact with the
enemy. Alternatively, issue your initial orders then wait until
they have been implemented before giving any further ones.

CHANGES FROM THE FRENCH MANUAL 
The translations of orders have been changed as follows:
	Mixte formation has become Ordre mixte.
	Eparpill‚e has become En Tirailleur.
