I bought Birth of America and loved the ideas in it,even if the subject wasn't of particular interest to me. I followed with ACW,which being a subject of great interest to me got played constantly until I became confused by the changes in the many patches. I gave the game a rest for a while but on m...

Recommend reading James H Beatie " Army of the Potomac" VOL 3.
It is an eye opener. With Lincolns interference and the naval failures,I'm surprised he managed as well as he did.It rather changed my perspective built up over the last 50 years of master george.

These old eyes can't read the print ,its too small.
Pity cos' looks just the sort of magazine I would enjoy.
Bit like the old avalon hill,spi mags.

Read that the developer of EU. was developing a new game. E-mailed Philippe with a question and was amazed to be sent map and some rules before game release. With such commitment ,I felt that the only gentlemanly response was to purchase BOA. within hours of release. Will continue to get anything co...

HURRAH! It's not just me with this problem( see my post,jan8."Pocus,can you help") Now another young whippersnapper wants to improve his gaming experience by trying the mods. I really believe there are many computer incompetents,like me, who are missing out on the fun . I got advice from several kin...

Two games at once and me on a pension.That means no food for the next month.

GrayLensman Events have conspired to stop me downloading rr mod this evening.Will try later,although I thought your hard work was being officially incorporated in patches? Runyan99 No offence taken from your gentle hint that I'm on my own as the most stupid user of these forums.There I was thinking ...

But the real question is whether there's agreement that the leader mod is an improvement over the original leaders. I understand that agreement all round would be impossible.They just happen to be more accurate in many cases for me. Perhaps with the fortunes that are being made at AGEOD, they might...

tremy

Thankyou for the almost instant response Gray Lensman. Yes I can use winzip to extract to files as long it is clearly stated. Forgive me for not having installed your mod after the countless hours you have spent correcting issues.I'm afraid I got hung up over leader stats. to the exclusion of all el...

Now that the excitement over the release of Napoleons campaigns has perhaps lessened a little,might you be able to help this doddery old wargamer? I have posted previously,to say that although aacw is possibly my all time favourite computer game,I have not played for some time. It is because the lea...

moving troops by rail and fighting bull run.attacking at seven pines,plus bentonville? ordering Pemberton to move re Vicksburg many of his contemporaries saw him as the greatest southern general ,while Grant and sherman cited him as their toughest opponent. But he certainly lost the battle of the bo...

O.K. I will own up.I stopped playing AACW.weeks ago because the leader mod seemed to me such an improvement that I thought to wait for it to be incorporated into the official game via a patch. Is this likely to happen cos I'm not computer literate enough to happily change/ delete files? Also, is the...

battles and leaders of the civil war -5 volumes ,full oob for all major battles and articles by those who participated. originally publshed in 19 th century.
A must for serous students of the war.

Pocus,now you are rich, famous and increasingly let out of the Thibault dungeon ,have you bought a Ferrari or a yacht or even a private island yet? Do you collect starlets or spend week-ends in drug fantasia? You must realise that fame requires gossip and it is difficult to believe that reading and ...

Had a pleasurable 1/2 hour reading this thread. I'm sure Pasternaski posts on many forums because he enjoys the flak,apart from making serious comment.The ensuing discussion has been interesting,amusing and erudite,so out of pure cowardice I am staying out. Now, my point.I downloaded this wonderful ...

I thought your original post really interesting Veji1. please would you post the results from any tests ?

I have edited the poll. The two voters who where in the 65+ category can ask me if they don't fit the right category now, I will alter the poll on their answer. I've been for a fit for a new suit but never for a poll ! I'm 65 so you got me right. Does this mean I get free games from AGEOD until I'm...

Please, tagwyn, I'm 58, and I haven't been called "sonny" or "punk" or any of that kind of stuff in a long time... I feel so good now that I see there are a bunch of us "too old to rock & roll, too young to die" types here. Ah, the original Gettysburg. First time I played it, we used the optional "...

tremy

I had decided to put the game aside for a while ,because the fort/ replacement issue was spoiling my inept attempts to defend the CSA.
Hey presto! 13 minutes later ,you put out a new patch. Many thanks.
I suggest Pocus for president of the Republic.

tremy

I agree.
Bet Hancock never imagined an Englishman ,living in North Wales, would be leaping to his defence 140 years later

tremy

I can see that Winfield S. Hancock might be biased in favour of one who presumably he admires, but surely he is correct. I don't recall any scandal in David Jordans biography "A soldiers life",or any other source studied over the last 40 years. I know it's only a game and perhaps I should lighten up...

I know it is hard to resist but everyone should consider carefully before reading all the strategy tips. Consider if you will that there are hundreds (hopefully thousands) of players out there and they are all testing and probing the AI defenses. Many of these tests are plastered in the forums. My ...

No Korrigan,I deleted the games and started again.Will keep files next time and get help in sending them cos ' I'm and oldy who might be quite game literate after 40 years of playing them,but computers are just things I use!
Thanks for quick reply.

tremy

Almost on the subject. I find moving dozens of units individually Across several states(screens) to where they are needed tedious after a while,although I like them building in their appropriate states. Could a button be added which sends units to a few major centres if wanted.For local defence of c...

Two ctds on campaign 61 csa and one warning of errors and programme closing ,all late sept61.I bet the game gets even better in 62!That on Sunday,monday and tuesday, so the problem can't be the days of the week

tremy

thanks Rickd79,answer makes sense ,I wonder if that info could be put on tooltip one day when Pocus is bored ,with nothing to do! I feel perhaps I should send a food parcel to headquarters, forced to sit in their dungeon all day with only old ,cold scraps of food ,while the rest of us enjoy their la...

I've lost weight, can't sleep,Sex and food are peripheral to the war,my wife is leaving and the Mortgage hasn,t been paid!
Congratulations Ageod on potentialy the best wargame in my 40 years of buying.

Keep going on this.Please!
It's good to know someone else is going through similar confusion.
Many of your comments are the exact thoughts that have passed through my own mind,but I haven't the courage to make them public.
