I suppose we'll try the quick fix, then, and test intentionally creating some battles to make sure it's working. By the way, after I generated the turn I deleted the directory other than the backup folder (which is a very helpful feature, by the way), so I didn't do any permanent damage to our game.

PBEM Problem- game not detecting battles

Hello, I've been engaged in a game via PBEM w/ jhdeerslayer for some time now; he is the host. It seems every time I place an army in offensive mode, and then send my .ord file, my army is still in an offensive mode the next round, yet no battle has taken place despite the fact that his army is in t...

I just ZIPPED the file and re-sent it. Hopefully that will fix the problem; I'm using crappy Hotmail and it also created problems for our first game because it automatically renamed the file.

Well then yes, that is definitely the case in the game. In fact, there's another thread talking about how easy it is for the British under Gage at the start of the '75 campaign are able to go on the offensive and fight Washington's army. In terms of quality of troops, the Americans are way understre...

By understrengthed, are you referring to Americans being outnumbered in terms of the number of men, or to the quality and skill of the American army compared to the British?

Yep, I've spent hours playing Revolution '76 and Liberty or Death. I have to say I prefer BoA to both of the former; the scale of Rev '76 is yearly turns which I think is a bit too constrained, and I didn't like having to manage all the personalities involved constantly (though that may be somewhat ...

leaders need to be added/modified: Arnold/Arbuthnot

Hello, First of all, let me say thank you for an outstanding game. I have two suggestions for the next patch that may make the game a bit more historically accurate: First, Benedict Arnold entered the British Army in 1780 as a Brigadier-General in their ranks, not a Colonel. However, if his status a...
