Would you please post a save game of the issue?

Jim-NC

To my knowledge, it is based on the patrol/evade values of the various troops. The higher the patrol value, the better chance to engage (if attacking), the higher the evade, the better chance to no engage (if defending/passive).

I think the problem is that your commanders are commanding divisions. If your general is commanding a division, he can't create a corps. You need to remove the commanders from the division, and remove divisional command from him, and then you can make them Corps commanders (if they are in range of a...

Hello and welcome to the forums DuAll. :wavey: As to your question, mines reduce cohesion of the ships a lot, and can damage some of them. The cohesion loss means your ships perform worse in combat, so if attacked, you would probably lose. The French also have an aircraft carrier, but I don't think ...

Hello and welcome to the forums.

signal units increase the amount of command points a stack has (this means you can put more troops in a stack without a penalty).

Sailors don't go on ships, they go in a stack to decrease the penalty when crossing a river, attacking from ships.

The General makes 18 elements. There have been many discussions about this (in the past). A Cav only division could not last in combat, as it doesn't have the hit points to be attacked, but is great in pursuit. Pure infantry is OK, but the sharpshooter helps get that 1st shot. You would need the can...

What's Russia's NM?

Jim-NC

As to your question of fighting a defensive battle. If you move into a region with enemy control (MC), you must assume your troops will switch to offensive. There is a rule in the game that if the region is 100% MC, then the other side will auto switch to offensive to gain some MC. The goal is to ge...

Each element destroyed is worth a certain amount of NM and VPs. You can get them from that (if you win the battle). There should also be some from the difference in casualties. There is a % chance for each battle of a general dying. Also, if the entire attached unit is destroyed, the leader can be w...

You will need to look at the battle logs to see what happened. It's possible there was a battle, but the CP stack retreated immediately. It's also possible they have not had a chance to leave the region yet.

Jim-NC

You still need to garrison important points. I tend to keep those single regiment zouave units on my rail lines, as they can rebuild the rails, and they help maintain MC. Without MC, those raiders can't get far, as they don't get any food. Make sure you garrison ports, as they are easy to capture, a...

Each destroyed element costs a certain amount in VP and NM. You probably lost a lot of elements in the battle (even though it was a smaller force), thus costing you the -4NM.

I agree about you being able to keep the US out of the war. My opponent did that to me, and I almost got to 60% for the WE by the end of 1917 (when the war ended with the fall of Paris). So you can keep the US out by keeping subs out of the Atlantic, and placing a diplomat there very early in the ga...

You can talk to Pocus (he's off-line right now). Or you can contact the help desk people at slitherine.

Jim-NC

Supply wagons allow an extra chance to not surrender. You need to keep the entire garrison with the supply unit however. If 1 unit surrenders, they all do, and the computer likes to pop up extra garrison units, which aren't with the supply unit.

Jim-NC

You are also only allowed to form a limited number of armies. If you create armies with all the 3 stars you get at the beginning of the game, then no, you won't have any extra armies for those new better commanders.

Jim-NC

Yes, you should both icons. Something is going wrong. Your dad could be sending orders from a turn behind, or something else could be going wrong.

Welcome to the forums btw.

Jim-NC

The penalty is double CP costs. So instead of being 6 CPs, it's now 12 CPs.

As to your 2nd question, there should be differences, but it may be small (attack strength or maybe cohesion).

Jim-NC

I agree with Searry, use them only when your sure you'll win. I lost my game because of the 10 NM loss from a naval battle (the enemy gained 10, and that was the margin he needed to win).

Jim-NC

It should be 1 line element. This means that militia don't count. I don't think cavalry count either. This only applies if the region is hostile (less than 50% loyalty to your cause).

Jim-NC

They should appear the turn after getting to 100%.

Welcome to the forums Matchu.

Jim-NC

several appear by event, the rest you must build. they mostly appear in the first few turns (april start). But there are 2 that appear later in the game (maybe more, can't remember exactly at this point).

Jim-NC

I'm glad you and the wife were able to get a peace deal. It's so much better that way.

Welcome to the forum.

Ruined marriages are a free service for being here. Or a really understanding wife.

Per the suggestions, I agree that we will stick to 1.04, no beta versions. Also I will do all the hosting, and score reporting (on turns 6, 12, 18, etc.). Winner will be the highest total score of the 2 games (add both sides scores together). The NM win will still be a huge score advantage if you ca...
