Yeah......or the last episode of Battlestar Galactica.

As host, I have the focus on move button turned off. One...it DOES give the host an advantage and Two......it takes a lot longer to get through a turn.

jimkehn

Hobbes, I have done the same thing, and thought of the same solution. Aggrivating as hell to resolve the turn and find that your corps have moved to follow the HQ when you didn't want them to. Just gotta remember to turn the group move icon off.

Also, when an Army commander is selected, hitting the shift key will highlight the command radius.

jimkehn

agreed

Actually, I think James Burns was the North. He said he was dug in and defending. The north was the side dug in and defending. I interpreted his complaint that the AI moved into that situation and didn't withdraw soon enough. However, being out numbered to that degree, I am not surprised that they w...

Sheesh....you want our favorite reason we like AGEOD's games?? I guess if I had to choose one, it would not be the graphics. That is second cuz I think you guys do sucha helluva job with graphics. I think when you boil all the other fat away, I hafta agree with Sol Invictus and say that most importa...

Your opponent must NOT end turn. He just plots his move, and sends you the .ord file. You should then save (or unzip) the file into the main directory that has the same name of the game you are playing......i.e. jimandbobcampaign. There will be other directories in that main directory, but they are ...

Well, Grant was outnumbered in units 3.5 to one, nearly. But not in GCV. But, this must be why he retreated. He felt he was outnumbered. But, I still wonder also about some of the results. Especially when one side whens lopsidedly and the victor retreats. In my battle above, Forney was dug in deep.....

I think you are both probably right. Because I was...

If you are the USA and the host then you send your opponent the CSA .trn file. I do not know why you are getting a .txt added to the end of the file when unzipping. Maybe you can just right click on the file and rename it by simply deleting the .txt so it ends in .ord. Why would you want to create a...

On the contrary in my PBEM game, I am the CSA. I had a Corps commanded by Forney in Carthage. I was entrenched like level 7 there. Polk's Corps was in Nashville along with Army Commander Albert Sidney. Now Grant could not do anything in Nashville, but moved to Carthage. There, Grant was reinforced b...

>>Why spend the dough and have the thing sitting around taking up space? >>What do you do when it becomes obsolete?

It's easier to read in the john than holding your desktop on your lap.

jimkehn

I dunno guys. I printed it myself in color on both sides of the paper. Super easy to do. Used a little bit harder cardstock for my front cover. Took the whole works to Staples and they charged me less than three dollars to spiral bind it and put clear plastic covers on front and back. Considering it...

Mike1962 you beat me to the global warming comment!!!

jimkehn

I have found that once you get onto it, it isn't such a bad system. What my biggest problem is, Pocus can't fix!!!! My problem is forgetting to email the turn to my opponent once played!!!!!!!!

Not a word, Mike.........

....Not one word.........

... and then it sneaks into Louisville.

jimkehn

I agree with Queeg. If nothing else it gives incentive to hold some garrisoning troops back to start building abattis.

jimkehn

I don't understand how anyone could be so insecure as to think they need to cheat to win. <although I know it happens....just it doesn't make sense to me> Winning isn't all that important to me, in the first place. I enjoy just playing the game and the fellowship that comes along with it. If I suspe...

jimkehn

Yeah.......we used to hafta get up and walk across the room to change the channel on the TV.

jimkehn

Bloodybucket, Not sure if you are familiar or old enough to remember, but years ago a big thing (before internet and email) there was a whole industry out there called PBM...Play by Mail (I called it Pay by Mail). These were games designed to be multi-player in which you paid a fee to play the game,...

jimkehn

I second that.

jimkehn

WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING NOT SENDING ME A TURN!!!!!!!?????

jimkehn

My PBEM opponent, Mike left me for a vacation with the family.

I would rather not play the AI, and would be up for a smallish scenario until he gets back. It has only been half a day and am already jonesin for a turn. send email to jimkehn at aol dot com.

jimkehn

The town you are thinking of is probably Rolla.

jimkehn

Sounds like the leaders can now be removed without removing their attached units. Personally, I don't mind having a small, very small chance of a random event removing leaders. But, I wouldn't want to see more than one or two leaders removed in this fashion throughout the course of the war. So, I im...

jimkehn

HAHAHAHAHA!!!! I agree with Mike, though. I like to compare what either side did historically, and if one side did much better than his historical counterpart, he won the game. Within the game, will the South win the war??? I think there isn't a snowballs chance in Birmingham that it can actually wi...

jimkehn

Mike, I was able to get mine back in the garrison with 1.05c. We'll see what happens when we resolve the turn.

Still not sure why you kicked such enormous butt in that battle!!!!!

leure:

jimkehn

I dunno, Adam the VIth. I am not sure how you define ZERO return. I have been investing one factory in Texas and I get a result almost every turn. This last turn I got a factory producing war supplies as well as ammo. I think there was one in Milan and I know there was one in Henderson. The cost of ...
