Not the thread to open such can of worms.... ..... Now, can of worm closed. I said what I wanted. You're certainly right to get a different feeling, but I gear mine to be almost my definitive point of view about this swedish company. Now that whole response was one heck of a can opener :sourcil: , ...

And the simplest AGEOD game is so largely deeper than... what's the name of this swedish company??. :niark: I don't fully agree. Being a huge fan of ACW, I am also a huge fan of Hearts of Iron (HoI) by this Swedish company . They are very different games, both with great depth/complexity in certain...

Now, as a game philosophy, I'm biaised toward a game system where Grant's presence isn't sure. Historically, he almost resigned after Shiloh... But , considering how much this feature is controversial, I will put in the next SVF iteration 2 versions of the April 61 scenario, one with the option, th...

Cool - Let us know how it develops. I'd like to do a PBEM with this mod some time in the future, but have been holding off due to the concerns mentioned.

Have a look at the posts from May 7th and later in this thread and you will see that it is not obvious that the PBEM mod is compliant with the releases of the vanilla game.

OK - So it sounds as if it's best to stick with vanilla for a new PBEM under 1.10 until these effects have been evaluated. Thanks for the clarification, and hope to see the PBEM Mod for 1.10 as well eventually. Any chance of it being included as a scenario in the stock game? Not very likely until so...

Maybe a stupid question - Is the PBEM mod OK together with 1.10?

On hold....maybe even dead?

:p leure: It seems Marcus has fled into the land of RL. Haven't heard from him in a couple of weeks, so this AAR is now officially on hold.... In case my opponent will surface again, it will of course be taken up again should he want to....

Sorry about this, but it's out of my control for now...

Another update. Game is progressing slowly as we are both bogged down in RL work Anyhow, got the theaters updated to reflect the situation at the end of 1861. Is working on the plans for 1862 and some potential spring offensives as well as adding the Class 62 generals to the appendices. More to come...

Hmmm, moving target ratings doesn't feel like fun. Shifting leaders around to make sure the best combo of leaders are available where they can be put to good use is already a big task, specially when playing with randomized stats. Options to control what degree of FOW should be applied is the way to...

Sorry for the lack of updates lately. I fried my motherboard and for some reason it took some time to get a replacement etc. Anyhow, we are back in business and here's an update to take the game to the end of 1861. The update is still missing some political events and all the generals don't have the...

PBEM - Marcus (USA) vs Widell (CSA)

No Marcus allowed beyond this point.... First PBEM for both of us, plus we are both newbies with this great game. This is a slow game due to real life issues, and we are both noobs so expect some good laughs along the way. The format of this AAR will be PDF, and your feedback is most welcome. 1.7 MB...

"Kill Ratio" for generals

I just checked the discussion that has been ongoing regarding the ratio of 1 and 2 star generals killed in battles, and since I would like to see a slightly higher ratio (not a meat grinder mind you!) in a PBEM I am setting up, I would like to get your input as to what value to apply to the value be...

Brig. General F. Bartow?

Playing the Great Campaign, 1.07f, PBEM as the CSA, and the units besieging Ft. Sumter have one Bde commanded by Brig. Gen F. Bartow Shouldn't a 1-star general be listed as......a 1-star general among the other general. Alternatively Bartow should be a Colonel perhaps? Or is there a historical reaso...
