The scn wherin Lee takes command of the Union forces requires 3 things, Lee not to be Lee, and act in a manner totaly against his expressed views, VA not to be VA but instead hold a different view of the naturwe of the constitutional compact and so act against the expressed views of its citizens an...

Incorrect. First you citied Freeman, as i have shown you have totaly mistaken both Lee and Freeman, that alone shows you to be wasting my time, as they both have expressed the views i have put forth, and contradict yours. Since your appeal to authority contradicts your understand of history, the po...

@hanny1 Alternate history and fantasy are the same thing. Lee could have stayed with the Union but it didn't happen. That's history. Citing reasons that he didn't is nothing more than historical hindsight. I'm saying that under a different set of circumstances that it was possible. Since it didn't a...

Because its like having C DeGaulle leading a all French SS formation after France falls in a ww2 game. Its that level of absurdity being proposed. There is zero possobility of Lee taking command against anuy State in secession. We know this because Lee tells us this is the case. This game does not ...

Guys instead of this full blown argument as to if Lee would have or could have stayed with the Union, why not just say he did? It's an alternate history. In an alternate history it's entirely plausible that Lee's loyalties could have been with the Union instead of Virginia. You may as well not even ...

This may or may not be of any value to the discussion but what were Mack's cavalry assets compared to the French. The reason I ask is if the French were loaded with cavalry and Mack wasn't then retreating would actually be more dangerous than staying put and fighting another day. The pursuit casualt...

Because I own CW2 and I don't own NGC. :blink: I understand but my point is that comparing WoN to CW2 is like comparing apples to oranges. NGC and WoN would offer a similar comparison. I seem to recall the numbers being fine in NGC so it could just be a matter of changing WoN's numbers to match NGC...

Instead of comparing WoN numbers to CW2 numbers, wouldn't it be better to compare them against Ageod's first Napoleonic game? Seems like the numbers were fine in Napoleon's Campaigns. So maybe the better comparison is between NC and WoN instead of between WoN and CW2.

The only pressure put on these guys to release is self imposed pressure. They have this thing for releasing games on historical dates. This game was released December 2 or 3 which is the date of the battle of Austerlitz. It's a nice gimmick as long as the game works but Ageod has a habit of releasin...
