Not that it has anything to do with this company but I learned my lesson, the hard way, about buying downloads. I spent 35 bucks for Strategic Command and it downloaded fine. Probem was there was no activation key number sent with it . Many attemts to get one failed. Never got even so much as a resp...

I've played this game since 2008... but mostly always with the music off. :( Why?...well...because I can only hear union tunes! :( :( Does the game do this just to annoy me...or....do players of the union side always hear only Southern music selections? Could I be missing something in the Options se...

Southerner

Yep..I had those two objectives in the bag by April '62 also, but this time something obviously went haywire. It is usually just this time when the yanks throw in the towel but not this go 'round. Go figure. :blink: I'm starting a new camaign and for a change I plan on taking a purely defensive stan...

I just finished a full 2 theater campaign which ended in a stalemate on last turn January 1866. (this patch version) Thing is ...I took 100% of all the yankee territory ( even the far western) and also decimated their fleets. My national moral never got above 144 and in the final months, as I cleane...

Southerner

Maybe....maybe...but Polk taking a 90 degree left turn, crossing a wide river and occupying a completely different assigned objective city...I think not.

After installing 1.10b my units are exceeding their authority and moving to places I never ordered them to go. At least it is beginning tio appear that this is the case. What up with that? :8o: True ,I have only played a few turns in a new game but already General Polk by moving well beyond the posi...

Southerner

No. I used a utility cleaning program that must have recognized them as "orphrans" and did them in. Stubborn little whelps.

How do I get rid of these font files: Windsong JPHSL Lalex edmunds In preparation for applying 1.10b patch I decided I would clean house and reinstall AGEOD AACW These 4 font files just will not delete. XP tells me they are write protected or in use. Tried changing attributes, making sure they are n...

This overview should answer your questions: http://www.ageod.net/aacwwiki/Availability_of_army_HQs :) Well that certainly explains it. Thanks. Don't like it much but I can live with it... :sourcil: Don't see any real need to "mod" it up to more numerous HQ availability though. Managing scarce resou...

Southerner

What is it exactly that sets the number of HQ units that are available for the player to develop? Some games I have more than I can possibly use. In the game I'm playing now they are as scarce as hens' teeth. I'm even thinking of sending in R.E. Lee as a corp commander :sourcil: because turn after t...

Southern Sympathizers did destroy quite a bit of infrastructure according to what I've read. Hey speaking of that...does anyone know where I could pickup Shelby Foote's books on the Civil War...after reading a few exerpts the other day online...I'm very interested to read more. The used book store ...

Southerner

I'm curious as to why it is always destroyed. Is this supposed to reflect guerilla activity by Baltimore based Confederate sympathizers?...or is there something else involved? ...and speaking of railroads... :sourcil: Why are the AI Feds so lax about repairing their destroyed railsystems? I'm reluct...

Southerner

Perhaps it could be good to add more ways to win the game, i.e. that even if you haven't enough NM to win, you can achieve victory by controlling e.g. 95% of the strategic cities and all the objective cities? (or something like that) Problem was I had 99.9% controlled and still they hung on. Untill...

:dada: :feu: ...well as they say...alls well as ends well. Late January 1866. . Not a single federal land unit left anywhere outside of the New England territory box. Still their moral is stuck at 66. :tournepas Armies under Lee, Beaureguard, Johnson, converge,after a deadly winter march, then annia...

Southerner

Improve morale by smashing the Feds Armies in battle. I noticed in my latest game that though I lost Bowling Green and Nasville in 2 turns that Morale was maintained by smashing yank armies in East - in facr battle victories more than compensated for loss of objective locations, which is perhaps as...

Southerner

You need to garrison objective cities with at least one regular unit. Using militia only will result in the orange crossed swords banner which indicates that you do not control the objective (and neither does the Union). Ach...could it be that simple? :sourcil: The pop up box does still insist that...

Southerner

And it will be until you yank it from our Granite grip! :niark: :sourcil: Well that shouldn't require more than a minor tug or two over the remaining few months. The problem is that such a minor gain/loss couldn't possibly provide the boost/fall of morale needed to win decisively at this point...or...

Southerner

I am nearing the end of my first post 1.10 patch campaign. I've pushed the yanks all off the map. They only have a slim section of Upper NY state and Ft Laramie (which btw is cramped packed with fed units) and New England still under yank domination. It is January 1865 and with all the terriitory my...

Southerner

It has always struck me as a bit odd the way captured supply is handled in game. It is as if not only the wagons and horse/mule teams were captured and put into your service, but also the actual teamsters themselves,instead of being paroled or sent to POW camps. Then as the teamsters succumb to the ...

Southerner

Apparently captured supply units will not reinforce with replacement troops when their man power has become exhausted through attrition. So then...once they become depleted is there anything that can be done with them? :sourcil: I have quite a number just hanging around various depots doing nothing ...

Yesterday, after I had opened the "new uints formed" list and attempted to scroll down it....I got a message that said the game had encountered a problem and needed to cose. Now then, I have opened and scrolled these new units list many, many times before (probably a couple hundred times by now) wit...

Southerner

Indeed, an overlook that I forgot to fix, even if the subject was already brought on the table. This is added now on our list of things. Cool!!!... :sourcil: ....or do people still say cool?...I'm rather 1950ish you see. :niark: But at any rate I thought something was amiss. Destroyed ought to mean...

I order a unit to destroy a depot. I leave the unit in place for the required time. I get the depot destoyed message. Yet, if I move another unit into the depot, it and it's supplies are still there. The new arrival unit can resupply from it, so I have to assume that the enemy's unit can do so too. ...

That still doesn't explain the lack of a message in the box.

But if it is a real "bug" (a fault or defect in a system or machine ) then I wouldn't expect a message...and probably this thread probably would never have been started.

Lee & Southerner - What turn was it in each of your games when JEB disappeared? It may be an event-related bug. I didn't note the exact turn # but it was early in' 63. EDIT: PS...I didn't see Lee's answer until after I posted mine. So both were early in '63... hmmmm...you could be right...event rel...

Hi guys! I have another problem: shortly - where dissappeared Jeb Stuart's division? I ordered to take Syracuse (see the picture). Division was partially unsupplied (50%) and has 5 units inside. At beginning of the new turn, I can read: "J.E.B Stuart's Command has arrived in Oneida...", but there i...

Why not a player selectable option for either a 7 or 14 day turn game ?

Heck I would even be willing to ante up some more dough for that ability.

Southerner

From the few games I have played so far I was able to formulate a general rule of thumb (for me) for industrialization: When I need it the most I can afford it the least. Once I can afford it, I no longer need it. :fleb: Naturally I am talking about playing the C.S.A. It seems blockade runners and t...

I'm still playing at the default settings..whatever level the game installs at.

Southerner

Any advice on taking the Fort? Yes. After smashing Sumter in the opening turn, move by rail all those troops (except calvary) over to the Fort adjacent to Pickens. Use them in an all out assault on Pickens as early in '61 as you can. Teleport an officer too. If any other spare militia send them alo...
