I don't know the technical reason for the _Models folder. Models define the basic subunit that compose the units. When you collect a bunch of models together, then you have a unit. So if you want a new unit or to change an existing unit, you select amonst existing models to fill up the unit. And if...

I have Gold version 1.11. When are they unlocked? The Saxon forces show up in late October. Unlocked early November. I think I was in Early January and the regions were still unplayable with Saxons basically trapped at Freiberg. I adjusted the event to unlock the regions as soon as the Saxons appear...

I just ran into the same problem in a game against the AI. I think I can fix that problem. I suspect you can just add a blockstate command to the event to make the area playable. If I am successful this weekend, I will post the fix.

A redo of some of the smaller scenarios with 15 day or even 7 day turns and using the large Europe project map might be fun. There was almost no manuever room in some of the BOR scenarios and 30 day turns seemed too long. Map regions were just too big for the actual campaigns. With the new big Europ...

Sounds like your computer may not have enough memory to run the winter maps/textures. In the opening game screen, there is an options screen. After opening the options screen, there is a systems section. In there you can turn on/off winter maps, initialize textures on/off and adjust max texture size...

And you can have the reverse. Say you have regions which average 10 square miles. With a 15 day turn, a marching infantry unit can cover 30 regions a turn. Since the turns are simultaneous execution, the defender can't possibly react to the attackers moves. So the time frame should match the average...

I think 15 day turns are the way to go. After all, how fast can cavalry move.. I mean there were no steam trains for Napoleon to ride on! CW2 and EAW both have 15-day turns and multi-year campaigns.. surely this can work for NCP2 ?? A lot depends on the size of the regions. For example, many of the...

Nothing like a new scenario to make my day! Everything loaded up nicely. No problems noted so far.

Jagger2013

One things that does worry me is the length of turns. I understand that during the Napoleonic era simulating 7 day turns may better represent movement of armies, however, this would turn the full length GC into a monster as big as PON. ROP has nice two-week turns and from my experience it works rat...

Looks like you are ready for the bigtime...PBEM!

Jagger2013

Thanks that will help me with my game. I think we are up to turn 6. Nationalist still pushing hard against the militias. You know, a game filter that gave you that information would certainly be helpful.

In most Ageod games, there is a cost to build a unit but no cost per turn to maintain a unit except supply. If there were a per turn $/WS cost just to maintain units in the field, just like units use supplies every turn, then players would disband units when not needed or only maintain cadres to sav...

Definitely looking forward to this one. Any sort of link to the announcement? Can't find anything with a google.

Looking at some battle reports for RUS, I was struck by how few units actually made it to range 0. Most units fail various tests and are out of it by range 0.

One disadvantage of not having artillery in the division structure is they don't receive any defensive or offensive bonuses from divisional leaders which in some cases can be substantial.

Jagger2013

I don't believe with most scenarios, you can really design them for both optimum AI and PBEM play. IMO, you design either for aI play or for human vs human play. If you design for AI play, you give a lot of bonuses to the AI side and handicap the human. If you design for human to human play, you sim...

What is funny is I started a PBEM test game last night. When I started the scenario, I renamed the scenario, did setup and then saved to send to my opponent. Not only was there only one copy of the game saved but the scenario did not open in build mode. The only thing I did differently was renamed t...

(he is a 1-1-2 by default in all five files, in case you forget later). No one should have a strategic ranking of 1. Much better to make him a 3 or 4 but when his troops do move, have them move much slower than if they were under an energetic general. No one in their right mind would put a 1-1-2 an...

Here is one solution. There are a couple of abilities that adjust cohesion recovery. Take the medical services ability and give to unit models to increase cohesion recovery rates. It appears you can also modify the cohesion recovery percentage up or down with the abilities. So I think you can increa...

Jagger2013

I would like to mod the rate of cohesion recovery. I have looked at the models file and the gamelogic file. I have plenty of modifiers to alter the loss of cohesion but I have found nothing that modifies cohesion recovery. So is it possible to modify cohesion recovery rates or am I just looking in t...

Wonder if Lee was having a laugh at the expense of someone asking him the wrong question at the wrong time.

Here is a link to the CW2 database. The model database has stats for each element type. The database has everything else you might want for any sort of modding purposes.

Good example Barca of the consequences of cut communications. Although I am curious if we have any other examples during the Civil War? It has been several years since I have read much of the Civil War but off the top of my head, I can't remember any large armies having their line of communications ...

Wasn't the actual battle of Manassas a toss-up. Either side could have won that battle considering the armies were composed of inexperienced troops and a newly formed command structure. Just a coin flip as to who actually won that battle in 1861. It seems to me that the eastern CSA armies may be too...

The new Polish War scenario works fine and all is good but a couple weird things happen on startup which bug me. When I select the scenario from new scenario menu and start the game, it creates two copies of the scenario. I can see them when I open the saved game menu. The new scenario menu only lis...

Wow!

Well, this is actually very good as it means replay works for you. España 1936 is actually very different as to what you can see as loyalty is so mixed up. Are the units you are seeing in areas where you have limited or not loyalty or control? Yes, that is it. The odd units I can see are located in...

Pocus, or anybody else in the know, is it possible to have one location which will give different VP's to different factions? Yes, in the scenario setup file, each faction has a list of VP locations and their values. The VP locations can be different for each faction and the VP points can be differ...

Seriously, you probably didn't do anything wrong. Starting with the 1.05RC1 engine there are a number of issues addressed with allowed the retreating stack to do some irrational things. I am not sure it started with 1.05RC1 since the problem has been in every Ageod game I have played since BOA mayb...
