It was mentioned above that the supply rules and attrition effects in this title are similar to WIA. When I played WIA the AI loved to march around in the winter and the troops melted away. Will the AI in this game behave better in the winter?
Thanks for any opinions.

To me the obvious solution is to go back to the old way where the generals whom you could promote flashed red in the ledger.

When the game first came out, many recommended starting with the Eastern Entente. That's what I did. After learning the ropes, I then played the Central Powers. IMO that's the way to go.

Yes, you need to be in control range. I RR my GHQ to areas where I can form armies. If a real long haul, I use repositioning.

stormbringer3

My GHQ would gain seniority as generals linked to his command won battles, but he never gained any experience etc. until he was actually fighting in a battle with troops in his own stack. I'm not sure why you're having no change in the GHQ stats if he's fighting in battles with his own stack because...

After reading your post, I also saw zero change in the GHQ stats. I added some combat units to his stack, added him to a couple of battles and his stats started to change. Apparently he must be in combat to have any change.

I transported a 2 star general to a colony. Instead of the usual 24 without a penalty he only had 12 just like the 1 star generals already there. WAD?
Thanks.

I really like using it. I find it especially helpful when you have the superior commander and you get a heads up on whether the opposition is planning to fight or withdraw. You can then craft your tactics to match what they're planning.

When you have a 3 Star General leading a stack do you "fill" him with combat units like a 2 Star General or you leave him "empty" and just leave him to command?
Thanks for any opinions.

Lets hope that in a future patch the developers will bring back the old style.

IMO the ledger for generals was a lot more user friendly in my older AGEOD titles. You could easily sort them by name or rank and if they were able to be promoted they flashed red.

I really appreciate the attention given to my question. I'm totally confused. The current save setup is because of Windows but I can't use windows to open them???? I really like this game but having access to no saves but autosaves does put a damper on it for me. Pocus mentioned deleting a file to g...

Relyrc, Thsnks for your reply. I wonder why the saved games system was changed in CW2, the old one worked great for me. So now I have saved games that I can't open. My purchase before this title was Distant Worlds Universe. That came with a saved games system that was complicated and wasn't user fri...

stormbringer3

Thanks for your help. I think that I found the saves. However, when I when I double click on one I get "Windows can't open this file." I'm using Windows 7. Also, any thoughts about my autosave question? I'm not experienced with changing anything in a game directory. I can't even find the file you me...

I saved a game using the icon in the upper right. When I look in load games I don't see it. Where would I find it? I don't remember having a problem finding my saved games in my other AGEOD titles. If I start a new Campaign but play a different faction, will the autosave start a new set in the load ...

Thanks, just what I needed to know.

I own multiple AGEOD games and I'm considering a purchase of this one. If I buy, I'll start with the EE to bring myself up to speed again. My question, if the Russians can do better in the war than their historical performance, can they stay in the game or is the Revolution hard coded ending their p...

stormbringer3

Since the game has areas such as Africa and China is it possible for Germany to try for an ahistorical result in those theaters? I really like trying to alter history in games like this.
Thanks for any opinions.

In the Grand Campaign what are the number of armies allowed for each side? Playing Prussia I couldn't go above 4 armies. It was early game but I didn't try later to see if the number allowed would rise. I'm currently playing the Austria Coalition so I'm curious as to how many they are allowed. Thank...

stormbringer3

I've been wondering the same thing. I've restarted and restarted this Campaign because I've been swarmed by huge armies and I'm in a no win position very soon. This time I'm doing a lot better because for some reason the Russians aren't advancing as they usually do. Even so, I've killed so many more...

stormbringer3

I'm really happy with my purchase. I've been playing the 4 player Campaign to get around the Russian bug. Is there any work being done on fixing the 2 player Campaign? Is there any way to select more than 1 country when you want to play the in the Austrian coalition?
Thanks.

Erik,
Thank you so much. Your instructions were perfect!

stormbringer3

Thanks for your answer, especially about not always promoting. The officer unit detail panel in my game has a slightly different format than the manual and the line "May earn promotion: " is not there. I think that could be the issue unless RoP Gold has a different promotion method that I haven't fi...

stormbringer3

A new question. I was playing the Saxony scenaio as recommended. I was given the messages that several generals were promotable and their names were highlighted red in the ledger. However, when I looked, I couldn't find any promotion icon. Are promotions enabled in this scenario and if so, what am I...

I just purchased RoP Gold. What are the recommended AI settings? I remember from ACW it was advised to have the AI play on a less aggressive setting. The PDF manual that came with the game is version .10 2/15/2010. Needless to say, there is no info about the Gold enhancements and changes. I looked i...

Durk, Thank you for your answer. I read about the four player idea in another thread. When you play four player are the countries from which you pick Prussia, Austria, Russia and France? When you choose which country or countries to play as a human player does the AI automatically play the rest? Are...

In researching this title before buying, I came across the Russian bug. The discussion about whether the newest patch fixed this was never really answered. Does anyone know if it was fixed by the latest patch? I saw the fix by changing the event log but I would not even attempt to try such a thing. ...

stormbringer3

I downloaded the patch and it won't open because it is a RAR file. I'm prompted to use an existing program in my PC or go online. I have never had this come up with a patch before not even with my other AGEOD game patches. I'm not sure of the best way to proceed and any help would be greatly appreci...

stormbringer3

Just to make sure, the link will now download the official 1.01 patch and not a beta patch?
Thanks.

IIRC, another possibility is that if a stack has bright red provinces adjacent to it, it cannot move there.
