Hey all,

Looking for a Rebel Opponent for the grand campaign. First PBEM here so go easy lol.

thewick

Jabber is correct. In a PBEM you never defend any fort with a garrison, this also applies to cities and towns. Each are death traps for your units. They will be lost after an assault and you will lose major NM. As a result they are more effectively defended from the outside. I generally keep a divis...

thewick

ok this depends on when you start your campaign but generally there are two kinds of troops in this game. Game Created Troops: These appear at towns and regions each turn and is a due to events triggers in the game. There is a list on the forums about what appears where and when. These brigades are ...

still have not located a partner. C'Mon people, it takes two to tango!

I am still looking for an opponent. I would like to be the CSA (For Once) but I could also be the union. Running 1.09.

thewick

Heh There was also a couple hundred Green Mountain Boys at the Battle of Plattsburg. We just cant miss a good fight. It always makes me happy to see the one unit of vermont militia kicking butt. There was also a good reason for using the New York side of the lake, and that was that it was better dev...

PBEM concluded would like to start a new one up. I would like to be the CSA. My last three were as the North.

just throw me a holler.

thewick

I think you just have too many to keep supplied at sea, you will have to rotate some back to port.

thewick

Indians are good in an ambush,

Rangers are a faster militia/partisan troop

on the nato icons militia have and x with an M in its box. It is also light blue. At the top it will say Infantry militia. When these upgrade it losses the M in the nato symbol but will still be light blue background. For Regular infantry it will be blue. It will just be an X for nato symbol. And at...

I just have finished a PBEM and would like to start another. I send at least a turn a day usually more than that. I don't mind which side or which year we start up to my opponent. I've played almost a dozen of these so far and so I feel pretty experienced, but do not mind showing new guys the ropes ...

I would like to see Hunt, after all he commanded the Artillery at Malvern Hill. Which was basically Lee's Cold Harbor.

thewick

I dont think this is the place for discussions on politics and what-ifs. Just know that in game terms, if you fall below 40nm or 25 as the south the game is over due to a Moral Victory. This is done by taking strategic cities and capitals, and wining significant battles that destroy units. I have be...

Any Takers yet? I do prefer Union since I am a northern boy from Vermont. Thinking July 61 would be fun as I prefer longer games but am good for at least a turn a day Ive had a games upwards of ten a day.

After the half dozen PBEM games Ive done in the past I find I just cant play the AI anymore.

thewick

Hey All. I am an old player returning from a hiatus and looking for some action.

Union or Reb, I dont mind either way, let me know!

thewick

I believe its due to the St Louis Massacre event, where in RL german troops under lyon bayoneted babies and raped all the women.

Once Lyon shows up in game the Miss'er go gray and Price appears. At least thats my diagnoses.

thewick

damn bragg to hell, you just wait jimbo ill have his head on a pike soon enough! The jerk sank porters fleet as well! What a surprise im so frustrated fighting the western commander for the AAR....Its like he knows my every move before i make it!

thewick

I am having the same problems in a PBEM right now. I learned the same mistakes, do not attack across a river, horrendous casualties. I took forts Heny+D . So now i have pope with a corps at galintin, and sherman and thomas at the fort. all three are blocked by heavily entrenched confederates. Its ju...

thewick

well I'm not complaining Jim!

I have done the same during my own times as not the host player. I hope it can all get streamlined into an easier system.

thewick

So i moved a unit into a territory, the next turn it is locked, the general commanding as well for no reason. How do i unlock it?

please and thank you for any advise.

thewick

Cool, thanks for the help. Funny to see that my units cant tramp all through the state so long as we don't start a fight. Gotta love those loopholes.

thewick

ah ok it does seem that way. If i move any of my own units there from outside that is invasion? What if i build militia and other units in KY, is that invasion as well?

thewick

Does the Dick Robinson event mean I as the USA invaded Kentuck?

I just find myself confused about Kentucky and the events surrounding its neutrality.

thewick

wow, really I haven't seen that event :( or am just blind. Historically the Old Vermont Brigade was the 2nd-6th Vermont Volunteer Infantry Regiments. Vermont raised Seventeen Infantry regiments during the war. the 2nd through the 11th were three years men. They were completely volunteer units. So I ...

thewick

I have a grave concern to address and can only hope that it is addressed! That is that there is no regular brigade available for purchase from Vermont. Now this in not just because i am an aspiring civil war historian from Vermont, but also because of the significant contribution of her troops. The ...

thewick

McPherson is the better history. Foote is the better story. They are both well worth the read. Dick I agree with this statement. McPherson's work is the better history. Personally I don't think a person can properly understand a War if they don't know what caused it. Throughout the Civil War the po...
