So why have a mention of Construction Capability if there is no explanation of what it means and how it is used in the game. I don't understand AGEOD sometimes.

Okay RY. Raises some additional questions: 1) How much construction capability is required to construct a unit? There is a tooltip in the construction window, hover mouse over the unit in question. 2) Does brigade size limit where a large brigade can be built? Yes, some towns can only build milita ...

Land Construction Capa - question?

Please explain what this refers to? What significance does it have in the game? How can a player use this information? Example: Raleigh, NC show the Land Construction Capa (capability?) for the following structures. Capital - 12 Barracks - 50 Depot - 18 Same question applies for Naval Construction C...

According to the ledger, last turn there was 238 War Supplies. 22 were spent on replacements, 64 were gained from cities, and 75 were gained from event. By those figures there should be 355 remaining. Even if all the new numbers were negative (which they are not) there should still be 77 in the poo...

So it seems there is no explanation. That's a damn shame. That should be a ultlra important part of the game, I think.

FelixZ - that screen still does not show why the initial amount is so off.

Please explain so I can finally understand?

Please note it is early June '61. Look at War Supplies and tell me what every number represents. Take special notice of the "Initial Amount". My War Supplies have never been that much. How does the math work? Also it shows 75 for events and strategic decisions, which to my knowledge, I had none. Bug??

How to take a screen?

I have some really odd thing going on with the turn by turn calculations for money, manpower, war supply etc. Best way to ask for explanation is with a screen shot.

Looking for the next patch!

Asking because I just finished a scenario which I won as CSA and want to start another at a tougher setting. I know there have been some changes and improvement made in the next patch and I would like to start with the new version of the game. Any feel for when it is coming?

No. It is supposed to work, but if the demand is great, 15% may sometimes be too small, so you have to manually select replacements. Post a screenshot of the F2 screen, and we'll see if any replacements are selected? This must be it. I manually selected some Infantry and Cavalry for replacements an...

Question on replacements?

I am playing with full attrition which says units must be on a depot to receive replacements. I also allow AI to handle purchasing replacements at 15% of hits outstanding.

Perhaps I am doing this incorrectly. But I have Johnson's Army and Jackson's Corp set for synchronized movement from the same region to a neighboring one to attack a union unit there. Johnson still shows 10 days to make the move and Jackson shows 8. Its important that they arrive and begin the battl...

Has there ever been a spread sheet or list produced that list all leaders and the particular trait they have along with when they enter the game? This would be quite handy.
