And keep the AI editor, that is a must in my opinion.

Yes, AI editor would be very well come. I tried improve some things in Brigade AI in C II game some time ago, but it was hard to understand how they wrote certain orders for some units. For instance how improve artillery guns movement, deployment or number of shots on target. AI orders should be easier prepared in new game. Maybe manual guide to editor would be good.

I was little bit busy in real live and missed what they annouced in 18th May 2015. Il lokks that they decided on Cossacks 3 as remake of Cossacks 1. I got mixed fellings in that matter and can cast more remakrs in other thread started by Daddio. 

Nvertheles I will continue this wish list for future Cossacks game.

How about expansions? Remakes of art of war and back to war? Then if there will be a cossacks 4, will it be a remake of cossacks 2?

If they will do expansion or Cossacks 4 I wish to include proper order of battle for nations armies.

For instance I propose such hypothetical order of battle for French Grande Armee.

Headquarter.
* Supreme Commander and his 5 Adjutants = Emperor Napoleon
* Suite Genral and his 2 Adjutants e.g. Generals Cailancourt or Duroc or Rapp
* Suite General and his 1 Adjutant e.g. Generals Bertrand or comte de Segur
* escort cavalry squadron = 15 men formed with Guard Chasseur a Cheval o other Imperial Guard cavalry squadron

Commander in Chief of the Army and his 4 Adjutants
e.g. Marshals Davout, Massena, Soult or Vice King Beauharnais

Chiefs assigned to the Army
* Chief of Staff and his 3 Adjutants e.g. Marshal Berthier
* Chief of Artillery and his 2 Adjutants e.g. General Lariboisiere
* Chief of Engineers and his 2 Adjutants e.g. General Chasseloup-Laubat

Army Corps

I Army Corps = 2 Infantry Divisions, Corps Cavalry, Artillery, Enginners, Trains and Staff

Staff
* Army Corps Commander and his 3 Adjutants
* Chief of Staff and his Adjutant

Corps Cavalry
Light Cavalry Brigade detached from Light Cavalry Division

1st Infantry Division = 8 infantry battalions + 1 Division General + 2 Brigade Generals in 3 Infantry Brigades
* Infantry Brigade = 2 Voltigeur Companies + 1 Chasseur Battalion + 1 Brigade General and Adjutant
* Infantry Brigade = 1 Foreign + 3 Fusilier Battalions + 1 Brigade General and Adjutant

* Supply Train Company

Corps Artillery, Engineers and Trains
* Chief of Corps Artillery and Adjutant
* Position Artillery Battery = 3, 12 pounder heavy cannons, 1 howitzer, horse drawn 4 limbers
* Chied of Corps Engineers and Adjutant
* Bridging Train Company = horse drawn pontoon bridge and tools 2 carriers
* Supply Train Company = horse drawn 2 supply wagons

II Army Corps = similiar structure to I Army Corps however few differences are possible
3rd Division could include Vistula Legion Battalion instead Foreign Battlion
4th Division could include Portugal Battalion instead Swiss Battalion

Optionally Siege Artillery up to 10 heavy guns used only during sieges
* Heavy Artillery Section = 2, 24 pounder heavy cannons, 2 limbers, 2 ammunition caissons
* Heavy Artillery Section = 2, 12 pounder heavy cannons, 2 limbers, 2 ammunition caissons
* Heavy Artillery Section = 2, 12 pounder heavy cannons, 2 limbers, 2 ammunition caissons
* Howitzer Section = 2 howitzers, 2 limbers, 2 ammunition caissons

Guard Heavy Cavalry

Attached to Guard Cavalry
* Guard Horse Artillery = 3, 6 pounder light cannons, 1 howitzer, 4 limbers

Chief of Cavalry and his 3 adjutants
e.g. Marshal Murat

Cavalry Corps Commanders = 2 Division Generals, each one with 2 Adjutants assigned to Heavy Cavalry Regiments
e.g. Generals Nansouty, Montbrun, Grouchy or Latour Mauburg

Light Cavalry Divison = 3 Light Cavalry Brigades + Divison General + 2 Brigade Generals
Light Cavalry Brigade = 2 light cavalry regiemnts, detached Army Vanguard
* Chasseur a Cheval Regiment
* Hussar Regiment + Divison General and his 2 Adjutants
Light Cavalry Brigade = 2 light cavalry regiments, detached to I Army Corps
* Chasseur a Cheval Regiment + Brigade General and Adjutant
* Polish Vistula Lancer Regiment
Light Cavalry Brigade = 2 light cavalry regiments, detached to II Army Corps
* Chasseur a Cheval Regiment
* Chevauleger Lancer Regiment + Brigade General and Adjutant

* Dragoon Brigade = Dragoon Regiment
Attached Unit
* Supply Train Company = horse drawn 2 supply wagons

Heavy Cavalry Division
* Heavy Cavalry Brigade = 1 Cuirassier Regiment + Divison General and 2 Adjutants
* Heavy Cavalry Brigade = 1 Carabineer Regimet + Division General and 2 Adjutants
Attached Units to Heavy Cavalry Division
* Horse Artillery Battery = 3, 6 pounder light cannons, 1 howitzer, 4 limbers
* Artillery Train Company = horse drawn 4 ammunition caissons
* Supply Train Company = horse drawn 2 supply wagons

These order of battle could represent French Army in the game. This require c.a. 5000 units.

GSC announced that even 10, 000 units will be possible, however I do not believe that all they can represent military units.
I think that part of these numbers are peasants and other support units.

If cossacks 2  has 6 (9 in the expansion) nations, and cossacks 4 is the remake, will it also feature 6-9 nations?
