I'd like to send my deepest condolensces to his family and friends.

I've known Henry ever since I joined the beta forums. He was smart, witty, articulate and someone who didn't take himself too seriously; a person whom I both liked and respected.

You will be missed, my friend.

My old system is running an ATI 9800 pro; 1G ram; XP home
New system is running a GForce 7950; 2G ram; XP Pro

Runs fine on both.

[rant.exe/ON]So it is basically a patch with some enhancements that bring back useful features already known from EU2 but omitted in the original release of EU3? For which You are suppposed to pay extra to boot? And still no historical events? Glad that I'm not the only one that feels that way. EU3...

Thanks for your advice, Frank E I already re-installed those drivers last year, but I did it again today, but the same idiotic behavior persists :bonk: oh well, that's life... Looking at your other thread about textures, it seems like there's something strange going on with your system. It almost s...

So, I will proceed to step 2 of the usual workflow :bonk: : starting the aplication (in this case AACW) standing only on the right foot, facing west and chanting a prayer to the Fiji god of coconuts :niark: Well there's where you're going wrong. Standing on the right foot is for graphics problems, ...

Look, if river ironclads are still going to show up in Great Lake shipyards I can deal with it (by only building them in Missouri and Kentucky). But an easy solution would be to simply include the Chicago canal that would allow a player to send them from the Great Lakes down the Illinois River to t...

Hi all Well, at long last I am actually able to play the game on my 2 computers !!!! However, only in Safe boot dsrepair mode with all background systems, services, win ini, and start settings activated. In normal windows XP mode AACW still stalls, but that matters less now that I am actually able ...

Pocus, do the land and naval forces need to be in the same city/harbour then since thats the only time you see the tabs of the land/naval forces together. A follow up question, I attempted to load my forces from Baltimore, did the tab load, and then moved the fleet (with the land forces showing in ...

True, though it was mainly for the division issue that I wanted to restart (plus the Patterson issue). I'd actualy been beating the Rebs in Virginia silly, just wasn't feeling like I had figured out some of the production and organization issues as I should have. I just tried a new campaign and the...

After a battle for Corinth in the Shiloh scenario, my Army of the Tennessee separated in a rather unusual way. Grant with the army HQ moved forward into Reb territory, while the two corps retreated backwards into Federal territory. As a result, Grant ended up behind enemy lines with some artillery ...

Frank E: I tried again. I get from the first unit to a second unit, and then no more. Neither holding Ctrl nor Alt helps. OK. It works in later scenarios. Maybe it doesn't cycle locked units ?? I just double checked. It will cycle locked units that you locked the formation with CTRL-L or by right c...

It shouldn't.

Frank E

If the 'E' 'R' 'T' 'Y' keys stop having any effect you have cycled through all the units which can move which have not already been assigned orders. Its possible you may have locked all units via CTRL-L simply press CTRL-L again and eligible units will unlock. CTRL-L shouldn't have any affect on cy...

Love the game! The only problem I have with it is it keeps overwriting my save games whether I name them myself or not! How can I prevent this? Working as intended, you can't change that unfortunately. Every turn it will do a new save under whatever the current save name is. You can get around it b...

Frank E

If you have your corps spread out over multiple regions, your army HQ more likely to march to the sound of the guns and support a corp that's being attacked than your other corps are. So one reason to keep troops with it is as a moblie reserve.

When we build industry and get those special industries built, do they remain forever, or disapear when funding for industrial expansion is removed? I notice that the newly built factories are listed when industry is funded, but disapear when it is taken away. Industry is permanent. Any increase du...

Hi i have two short questions? 1.) Which ships can i use as blockade runners. Only light ships or brigs too? 2.) As the South when can i build ironclads? Thanks Frank BTW Congratulation for the entire team for this superb game. Finally a worthy civil war game since "No Greater Glory" was released 1...

Heh, I think if it was my game a part of me would be secretly hoping for it. "May so many people buy the game that they bring the infrastructure to it's knees!"

I have never downloaded a game before. How fast it will take to to it. If there is many people on line at this moment, will the download rate decrease dramatically (something like 380 ko to 30 ko per second). My download last night took about 16 minutes at 420k, which is right at my max speed, not ...

Hmm, I wonder if I could sell my beta key today for a big profit and then buy a regular copy tomorrow.

..... nah, I think I'll just play it tonight instead!

There is a limit to your suggestion: if the promotion is linked to some kind of activity and the guy is "bad" at start, why would the player (not knowing the guy 'will' improve) put him in command in the first place... That's pretty much how it works in real life though, you hope they get better as...

[quote="Pocus"]who aside Frank E. could have answered this question ]

Just wait! When ACW comes out you'll all thank me for bugging Pocus until he put that in!

It prevents the stack from being merged with other stacks.

How it works. Both side have a railroad system. Do you have to buy locomative to use it ? or improve it ? If you want to move a division or corps like Longstreet at Chickamauga, how much time is needed ? For now i just now that you have to select the destination and then use the "by rail button" bu...

I notice on the purchase screen that every state seems to have two types of infantry brigade. What's the difference? Also, are there recruitment limits by state? The difference in brigades has to do with the number of attached units. There's usuall one relatively small (and cheap) brigade type that...
