So I am an AGEOD’s ACW vet who just picked up RoP with a few questions regarding Army/Corps Org as I am playing my 1st scenario: 1) Is it better to group units into bigger corps under the better generals (looking at the Invasion of Saxony Scenario’s it looks like the entire main Prussian army could ...

Is there a way to remove the Union penalty on replacing casualtis/lost elelemnts?

enalut

So i am playign my first confed game and i want to make sure I understand a coupel fo things: Marines provide the movement bonus tot he entire group their in--hence only 1 is needed for each corps (and it doesn't matter if they are in a Division or loos in a corps right)? Cavalry commanders--do tehy...

So it is now August of 1861 (april scenario) and my confeds have been doing well--I hold Harpers Ferry and Annapolis as well as the rail road conectign them, and have DC under seige (an inefecctive seige though). The Army of NVA is hanging out soemwhere around Gettysburg (north of Harpers Ferry, but...

So i am startign my first campaign as the South (after about a 1 year haitus form the game)--and my stupid question since I haven't figered it out on my own--how do you manage confederate shipping/blockade running? Do you just send it to the blockade boxes and leave it there till it needs to recover...

So after being away for a couple of months, I recently started a new game under the new patch (1.13b) as the Union. As almost always seems to happen--the south attacked a KY Militia on turn 4 (I think) at Paducha. Reading though the event log--The KY invaded by CSA did not fire. I played this throug...

By Independant--I am meaning a division not associated with a Corps--usually operating out west--KY/TN and the TransMississippi

My thought for including so much cavalry was to get the 4 cavalry for teh rout bonus casualties.

So given all the recent discussion on frontage and Artillery--excellent work Dixicrat. I was wondering what division composition were looking better? As a preliminary question--how does the new cavalry follow through work--I remember reading in one of the patches that if 4 Cav elements were present,...

I understand that there is a consensus that for a standard division most people field 11 Inf, 1 Sharpshooter, 1 Cav, 4 Art. (I personally prefer to swap 1 inf for a second cav). I usually put a Hosp., Marines, Baloon, Engineer, and 4 Art in each corps. In my current grand campaign, (now August 1861)...

For the Union: Have a grand plan and don't try to play Whack-a-mole. I have found a mixed strategy works weel (granted due to computer and patch issies I have not progressed a game past december of 1861): Use Shurz to repair the RR in Baltimore as soon as he is available. Build units with the idea o...

I found the book: Battle Cry of Freedom: The Civil War Era. New York: Oxford University Press, 1988 (1st ed.); 2003 (Illustrated ed.). To be well worth the read (or listen on a protected buisnes trip--gotta love books on cd) THe book was a very through treament of the sociao/economic facgtors that l...

I don't think Scott was right, at least not at the time he was proposing his plan. For the federal goverment to just atttempt to passivly starve the population of the South into submission would have been politically untenable. It also had little chance of working. For instance look at the history ...

So after getting a new computer (and thus not having to wait 15-20 minutes to process a turn) I have restarted my Union '61 campaign. I was wonderign what kind of naval building program is recomended. It is now early october and I essentailly started my naval buildup after the July recruitment windo...

Sory to resurect this thread from the dead, but:

Do these light infantry elements ever upgrade like the accompnaying Militia?

Is there any consensus on what level of Inflation is sustainable? Is it different for the Union and Confeds? So far I have been very hesitant to do anything to incur inflation, as I expect it will quickly become disasterous for the long term war economy (as it did in the Confederacy IRL). However, I...

Another few questions that have come up after I restarted the game: 1) How do you build/increase Naval transports? I want to build a few more transports for both shipping and troop transport, but don't see the unit listed in either the blue or brown water pannels (I am talking about Blue water trans...

So I started my first campaign last night (April ’61) and started running into problems/questions: I made it about 8 turns before heading o bed (work night). My initial idea was to industrialize the NY (Heavy) and PA (Medium) on turn one. By Turn 8 I had been able to move PA, DE and NJ to Heavy indu...
