Use as reference map

CTRL-F4 will remove all units from the map. (See last patch notes for more details). Thanks for this hint. Now I can view the map as a reference without any units showing. I started one game as CSA and another as USA and saved both turns for the Campaign Game. I'm going to use this as a reference m...

Game over

Kyle, I have to discontinue our game. I don't understand how it works at all. In addition, for some reason I cannot send emails via hotmail the last couple of days. Thus, I cannot even send you an email to notify you of my decision. I'm only going to use the game as a great map to accompany the read...

Thanks.

Hopefully, within 6 months at most (I'm at loss to give you a real estimate), the PBWEB service will renders all these questioning moot :) Thanks, Pocus. Now I won't uninstall the game. I'll wait for the PBWEB service and give it a try again. I'm reading a book, "Lee's Lieutenants" by Douglas Freem...

Scripted History of Entire Civil War

I'd like to see a mod displaying the real civil war history through this game. It would be invaluable then as a learning and history tool. The AI could move for both the USA and CSA. As a game I've been playing it PBEM with another player here but fail to understand the interrelation of all the acti...

Three Way PBEM Game

Isnt this the reason for the 3rd party host/server for turn resolution mentioned by AGEOD. This was tasked to be developed by some individual. I am sure where this project lies on the schedule though. Both sides submit their turns and the turn is run, then the players login to get their turn files....

Weaknesses in PBEM Hosting

There seems to be loopholes in PBEM Hosting. The Host could simply re-run the turn processing as many times as necessary until the result comes out to his liking. The ideal way to process would be to have the old TRN and ORD files DELETED when each turn is processed. The only file left would be the ...

Is there a quick way to find cities, regions, states and departments on the map?

Hovering does it.

Each corps is attached to one army. When you have a corps selected, its parent army will blink red (not sure what happens if the army is stacked with other units). You can also hover your mouse over the corps symbol on the units panel to show which army it is part of. Thanks. Hovering over the Corp...

McClellan Strategy?

In the real Civil War General McClellan never attacked vigorously. Lincoln bided his time and then replaced him after months of BOREDOM.

It looks like the AI IS MCLELLAN.

Unexpected Results always possible

There were 650,000 dead in our Civil War on both sides. Many battles turned out in totally unexpected ways. The First Battle of Bull Run saw the Union totally routed with large casualties. No one on either side expected this outcome. In the game I am sure the die rolls could alter all battles in mul...

Tracing Corps to Armyies?

If I understood you correctly , you will like to attached the three corps to an Army ? - You don't have to because Corps automatically attached to an Army when you form them . This is due to the fact that you cannot form Corps outside range of an Army ( although after forming you can move them out ...

Corps / Army Connections?

How does one establish for each Corps its Army chain of command? In the first tutorial I had the Army of Tennessee and Army of Ohio both in Fort Henry, Tennessee. I also had three Corps there.

I could not figure out how to associate each Corps with the chosen Army to command it.
