The rulebook still has the strategic cities bit, maybe it's not in use thought. I've been spamming that ability as much as I can +5% loyaty, but it doesn't come around often :( Yeah, that's basically what I've been doing with the brits, it just seems hard (come 1780) to hold on to places like Pittsb...

Micf2302

So, last time I asked a question about NM and people were nice enough to give me a reply here. This time around, I would like to get some info on loyalty. Apart from what's in the rule book, how do I influence loyalty? If I just have control of a city for ever but don't grap any strategic city, then...

I am playing the British. I noticed this situation after the spaniards started to attack me (the campaing of 1780). I don't see any reasons why I should be losing NM in the monthly report at the bottom of the page. If I add up all the modification there I should ether be in the positive or at +0 at ...

I am playing "The white of their eyes" And after the intervention of France in 1780, I am losing 4 NM per turn no matter what happens... In one turn, I won about 7 NM from battles (clubbered a couple of fleets and one big army) but I still ended that turn with -4 total NM... I just don't get what is...

Juste pour dire que TOUS les post dans ce thread ont été très utile à l'installation de ma copie de WIA. J'ai du installé à un autre endroit dut a des problèmes d'accès au programmefilex86. Après, j'ai tout de même du modifier le dossier General à la main et finalement, j'ai du installer le dernier ...

I didn't see any technology about them

That's why I'm asking... Some people said that by 1958 they had railways everywhere...
Not that that is what I want... But just curious.

Micf2302

When does Japan get the ability to build railroads and factories?

I'm playing as them, I'm like 1 year and a half into the game and I can't build them. Anyone knows?

Please, don't think I'm telling you that you are a bad economist if you weren't in the top 30 university. If doing my Ph.D. here as thought me one thing, is that I know nothing! So please, don't take that as meaning I know better then anyone else. I always start the first lecture of a class or lab s...

Micf2302

LOL :) Incidentally, my 'way' would lower the amount of hassle you get from taking care of the economic system. It would make everything easy to understand and make you spend 30 times less time on the economic system then you already do in this game... Sad thing is, this game is mostly about taking ...

Micf2302

Obviously, I didn't mean to say we should change this system to a CGEM. Just saying I crave the day when a company will do that. It would probably even be easier for the human then the current system... You would just change policy levels (taxes, welfare etc.) and the system would respond. Not so ha...

Micf2302

Stephen, that was my plan, but the international market seems to be f**** up in this game... I can't import Wood or Wool/cotton or anything for that matter! I maxed out buying from the US, all Baltic countries, Bavaria etc. and I'm barely getting enough goods to keep my industry running (I actually ...

Micf2302

I'm an economist to, I can't keep thinking that they should have used simplified Computable General Equilibrium Models (CGEM) to generate the economic model. CGEM are quite simple, and I believe would be quite easily adaptable to computer games. In this game there is 4 categories of goods, (which me...

Micf2302

So, I was playing as Prussia. At first everything went fine, I had a good stockpile of all the resources. I started by trying to buy all the Wool/cotton from the USA. I also started to get all of the resources that I lack. At first the marked was ok... But quickly all of the markets dry out. Not onl...

I meant Dye production for Germany

Micf2302

Hey, I'm learning this game.

I was wondering if anyone had insight on:

Who to use German unification on? Hanover? Or smaller country?

Would it be a good idea to start by concentrating on dye production? That seems to be the 1 resource that is hard to trade at first.

Any other tips?

Micf2302

Thanks so much!

And I promise not to buy on steam again! (or does it matters now that you are part of the greater evil that is Paradox Interactive?)

So, I played a great many AGEOD games and I was on the fence about this one (I like the more battle oriented games usually...) Not the Grand Strategy so much. For my, Birth of America was a master piece, and is to this day my favorite Ageod game by far. Anyways, so I decided to get this game. Howeve...

Micf2302

There is also the stance. If you only played BoA like me, I had some on the ''green'' stance. At which point they don't seem to assault even if they are put on assault.

Micf2302

My experience was that the AI didn't do so great as Prussia. Playing Prussia requires that you are daring, and that you utilize mobility by change plans on a dime and striking at target of opportunity. All things I don't find the AI to be too good at. Anyways, After two years as the Austrian I stopp...

Micf2302

No one said it ''looked like crap'' or not that I can remember. But some of us, are really drawn to the ''boardgame'' look of AGEOD games. I can't say which ratio of AGEOD games buyers are like me. But I would think plenty are. I tryed to convince my gaming buddy (with which I used to play all my 1v...

Micf2302

I was also wondering, is this game winnable as the Prussian in PBEM? The manpower advatage of the Austrians seems just so huge that I fail to see how a patient player couldn't just steam roll Prussia. All it takes for him to win, is one horrendous defeat for Prussia. While Austria can loose some hug...

Micf2302

So here is how my first game went: Started by reorganizing Elbe army in 4 stack, Keith's column, Wedell's column, Elbe army itself and a Heavy Cavalry column from all the cav lying around. Set one column to siege pirna (Power 1300, or about) let the other columns old the third province needed. Make ...

I mean, one turn the conscript count is 10. (up at the top of the page)
then next turn it'S 11. I didn't choose any option in the F3 or F4 menu. I have no idea where the small increase comes from

I'Ll try and get 1.03

Micf2302

I just installed 1.02 again. I was pretty sure i had 1.02 since thats what showed up in the bottom of my game when loading. And my game didn't disapear. So I think I have the good one. If someone could explain about the ''conscript'' issue, I'd be really happy. I'll put the game on hold until I unde...

Micf2302

The system ain't to different from BOA and the others, I say that's the reason

I did so well.

Micf2302

Hmm, basically my question is why did the flow of conscript stop and how do I make it restart. Playing 1.02 by the way. The AI seems quite dumb to me... Just like in BOA 1 it will make long march in the winter draining its armies and then being unable to mount effective assault in the spring/summer....

Micf2302

Hey everyone! I'm currently in the Winter of 1758 (of my first game). I have utterly crushed the Russians, the Austrians are fairing no better, and the French are left with quite some troops, but 2 decimated armies. However, I'm pretty sure they will get reinforcement or build more troops. My proble...

Micf2302

P.S. You shouldn't check your onw forums on Christmas

Micf2302

Yep, espescially the Depot battalion part :) Is it true, this is what I understood from the manual, that you have to break up battalions to receive reinforcement? If it is true what of units in corps but not battalion? I'm asking, because that might be my problem, I noticed that when I take my unit ...

Micf2302

After 56, my armies are a bit hurt. So I would like to reinforce them. However, I find myself unable to assign reinforcement to them. Anyone can explain how this mechanic works? I can have 3 available chit for one type, but the unit won't replenish (even if in Dresden in passive order, NOT in brigad...
