Re: Bitter Winter: An Ice March AAR

Ooo, I like this. Are you using RUS Gold? I haven't tried this Scenario since the very fist release.

Thanks!

Re: Colourisation...

I think they look really good as well! You've clearly put a lot of work into this - I'm excited to see more of this mod. The only constructive criticism I could offer - and it's by no means anything major, just if you want to refine further - would be that some of the CSA Officers still have a backg...

Re: Colourisation...

I think they're great. They're not going to look 1:1 identical to the ones already in the base-game, those are slightly more stylized. But I don't think it matters honestly, these will fit in fine.

Re: Colourisation...

Honestly I think these are pretty good. If you remove the backgrounds they will look even closer to what we have in-game and will pop out a lot more.

Re: Colourisation...

Hi B&T, These look really good! What program are you using for the colorization? I found with the old AACW that I could get a decent enough approximation of the more stylized portraits in that game, but I struggled with the more detailed, more life-like ones in CW2. These are pretty close! -degu...

Re: Stong Morale Special Ability

Hi debtmars, If I may pre-empt Bohemond, who I am sure can confirm one way or another: Unit level in this case means the division, so long as there is a division. I think for game purposes, the game doesn't really differentiate between brigades once they are in a division. So the sub-unit (the regim...

PhilThib is exactly on this line then, with his new wargames from SGS, and who among you are playing them? They don't get that much reviews on Steam, so my guess is not too many. Haha touché Pocus, you got me there. I would say that the SGS games don't quite have the grand strategy scope that I fav...

Re: Does this mean the AGE engine style of game is gone?

Couldn't agree more. It's true the old engine was on its last legs and that for reasons of commercial viability an upgrade in terms of functionality and accessibility was no doubt the correct choice, but if I could have whatever I wanted (and I demand no less) then it would be a modern, sleek, acces...

Re: Please help - game crashes at loading time

Hi Shri,

Haven't experienced it for WON, but try right clicking the .exe and running as Administrator.

With CW2 I still get this crash occasionally, but after 2-3 retries running as Administrator, it will run eventually.

Hope that works for you as well!

Hi Turbo, Assuming you know how PBEM works generally, it's really quite simple: the red player loads up the game as the RED faction and does their turn as normal and saves. The whites player loads up the game as the WHI faction and does their turn and saves and then also loads up the game as the WH3...
