We shall admit a night attack of apaches on an English fort, it interestingly and looks beautifully as around of a fort late night and trees in a view of torches on walls of a fortress and around in a grass are already built crowds of Indians)))).

Still, would be fun to watch cannons go off at night.

Perhaps limited to siege battles though, as has been said, most engagements happened during the day at this period.

Posts: 640 09/14/09 07:17:45	Yeah, Barbarian Invasion was great. You needed to have a commander with a certain amount of stars to be able to attempt a night battle though. It was useful in that if you were up against two armies you could often exclude one of them if they didn't have a real general.

Posts: 156 09/14/09 10:55:44	meh...if you want visibility to be minimal just play land battle/rainstorm/evening... ...you can't see sod all!... ...I thought armies decamped and marched through the night, to avoid the heat of the midday sun and to get into position during daylight hours?... ...Can anyone point me to a 18th Century pitched night time musket and powder battle (12.00 - 4.00 am...not a skirmish or wooden fort raid) so I can google it please?...
