Units in the convoy box allow you to bring in resources as the Republic. I think you might need some transports and maybe destroyers as you are getting resources, not blocking them.
I do not know if strength influences success, but yes, any regular/militia unit can tear up the tracks. Once trained, militia are regulars in all aspects.
I love your titling of forum topics. You have pretty much named it. I suggest, taking troops to Majorca, especially a good leader. Blockade a port you are attempting to siege. Sneaking units to regions the Nationalist forgot to take.
You are very correct on this account of the difference. As the Nationalist start with trained me, until the Republic can train men, early loss ratios are very bad. Find training leaders and make sure the Republican forces are in command control. This helps a bit.
I am a dullard with regard to popular culture. I finally get the Queen of Blades reference, but only kinda. Aphrodite Mae was such a force for positive good on this forum. Wish she could step into many of the cultural/political issues which have arisen since her departure from the forum. Alas, chang...
Not sure about other players, but BOA2/WIA played from earliest to latest is the story of my relatives. I have some ancestor from the Pequot War to the War of 1812 in each of these conflicts, and even a couple who are named leaders in the game, so I did enjoy this tour of WIA from a more personal pe...
This is a very rewarding way to work through the AJE scenarios. I did the whole historical tour from oldest to newest with friend in pbem play. The scenarios are so rich and rewarding, each unique, many with options that only happen if you make specific choices or win specific cities or regions, tha...
If you hold your capital, Propaganda campaign is first Then Requisitions As to picking units and such, buy what you can when you can. I usually buy from the menu options first, the builds options only occasionally.
I will not answer all that you post, but maybe a bit. AGEOD games are rich, but they do demand some uncovering of the not so obvious stuff. I do hope a player who pays attention to detailed stuff jumps onto your post as I mostly just play by ear. Experiment with the overlays as they show most of the...
What you can do is to use the consul, ctrl ~ to bring up some options. If you select, run as a different faction, you can save under a new name. This is the only way I know how to do it.
True the legions are not as robust, but the naval war is decent if you go east. While Caesar can march around the Med, Pompey now can do hit and run attacks and even retake Rome.
