The system is really powerful and what I have looking for a lot of time. But as I would like to use it to portrait the battle in my Roleplaying campaign (or whatever set-up) I'd like to have a more easier way to modify (create/edit) the nation and the rules.

Though one thing too that need a great improvement is the siege engine. They are no siege machine, ladder to climb on the wall... The castle are a simple circular wall with tower that fire. Nothing inside too, Fortified cities should have some building inside I think. Of course that will be a bit difficult with the actual battle engine...

Don't know what battles replays you are watching, but I have seen buildings in fortified cities ...

There are no siege engines shown, but you should read the descriptions of Ulm's Siege Engineer and Arcoscephale Golden Era's Engineer (IIRC). They seem to indicate that siege engines are used, but are not shown as units.
