Prisons that must be defended.
Also, fighting battles switched to a realistic scene, instead of being so abstract.
And "scale-to-fit" troops vs buildings......

I noticed that my supply line that stretches from Mannassas to South Carolina to Atlanta, has things like 0\950...The first number is zero for the botom half of the supply line. But the second number is there. So this tells me that theres ammo but no food, and general supply...Why?..If ammo gets thr...

Admiral Faraguts 3 transport ships are protected by a fleet of warships. The trip is also a short one, plus foreign intervention has never entered into one of my games.......Its enabled, but they don't even get close to entering.

Question: First, how much difference do factories really make in supply, and is it more advantageous to build multiple factories in the "excellent" states like NY, and PA, or should you build up the weak states first?...OR, should you completely pass up building factories in the "weak states". :inno...

Each turn I mass new brigades in Philadelphia, then I shuttle Farragut between Philly and Norfolk, VA. Be sure to put a general in there. The first turn you may take some damage, but you won't get wiped out. Then, form your first division there. Repeat each turn, massing troops in Philadelphia, then...

Whats the difference between Zoaves and Regulars?
From their picture, the Zoaves look like they were Gypsies...

And what was the difference (in the civil war) between
Heavy Infantry and Line Infantry?

Please, somebody.........
How do I edit the starting money for the Union side in the 107 turn game?

I play the Union side. I build massive reinforcements each turn in PA, and NY, and they generally all show up in Philadelphia and New York city. I group them all in Philadelphia, then use Admiral Farragut to transport them to the shore off Norfolk, VA. I keep shipping them back and forth every turn,...

:dada: At the top of the battle screen, there's a small blackboard to the left of the large one. At the top of this blackboard, there's a 0-1/3-2/3-3/3. What are these fractions signifying?...My guess is that they mean you have either : less than 1/3 of your maximum forces of (rail, river, sea) or 1...

If Patrol/Evade says 1/30, does this mean this unit is very good at detecting enemy units patroling nearby? Also--- ie: Ranged Damage= 2/10 Assault Damage= 2/10 What does the number before the "/" mean, and after the "/" mean? One more: Protection: 4----What does this mean exactly? Whos protecting w...

Thank You. That makes sense. Knowing how this works clearly, can really enhance both defensive and offensive actions.....

{I do already know that Corps support each other}--but...... On page 59 in the manual under "Combat in the Field", there is an explanation of "Marching to the Sound of the Guns". I understand the whole paragraph EXCEPT the next to last sentence that says, "You can then use the Army HQ as sort of a r...

What is the purpose of a Forced March, and when should it be used?
When should it not be used?

Note: Been playing for months, and I never use forced march. Never understood it, so I (stupidly) ignored the issue.

Since I'm on a roll here with questions, I may as well continue, besides, someone else may be wondering the same thing. So, here's my next question men.

Question: As the Union, if I assign a General to a Division that has a seniority of, lets' say 98, before I assign another General with a seniority of 16 {for example}, will I be penalized in some way? Must I really pay attention to seniority of Generals at all times?.......Because in the past, I as...

I played the large 114 turn Civil War "scenario". I was the Union. At the War's end, I controlled all the major Union cities, actually the entire northern half of the map, PLUS- Richmond, Norfolk, Raliegh, Wilmington, Chatanooga, Georgetown, SC Memphis, Nashville, New Orleans, Mobile, AL, the entire...

Yes, it's clearer now. The second part of your answer I already understood- the army control area, etc. It was just those lines that had me confused. OK..nothing to do with suppl. they just show adjacent connection types......

When I open the replacements window after a large battle, I'm usually looking to refill heavy losses to my Line Infantry for example. Next to the single soldier icon there's a red zero.

Question: What is the proper way to use Allan Pinkerton?
I notice he has '100' for his EVADE value, so that tells me he's like a spy, but he's listed as a general....Am I supposed to put men under his command, or use him alone?... Or what?

I'd like the ability to rename the unit tabs.

Can somebody tell me a way to free units that are locked into a region (unless attacked). I want the freedom of deploying anyone I wish to anywhere I want to place them or send them. The little padlock icons are driving me "a-crazy", like an old Italian man would say.

I came to the realization that I don't create any depots for my supply lines. I've tried to make them using 2 supply wagons, but no luck yet cause when I go back the next turn for the wagons to create the depot, they've disappeared somehow. I suspect they were "taken into" other units or divisions o...
