There was a hint from Pocus "the blue and the..." .. it must be Napoleon!

Yuck.... not ANOTHER Napoleon game. That's been done about as much as WWII.

Wikis are icky.

Let me guess..... the Hungarian Indpendence War of 1848-49. That's never been done before.

Nope... Pocus said Rifles.

I just hope it's not about the British in southern Africa. That subject is such a Boer.

I besieged Ft. Pickens for an entire year with a full division and a pair of siege batteries. Made numerous breaches, only to have them constantly repaired by the garrison. Finally assaulted the place, and took horrendous losses doing so. That's an attack with a full division vs. 1x garrison regime...

From the 1.04 readme: Not knowing which these are (I'm guessing Jim might?), how will this potentially the game, should we start using the newest patch (which we won't yet, but might be thinking of in a not-too-distant future)? 464 - Boone, WV 465 - Kanawha, WV 471 - Mercer, WV 472 - Crawford, WV 4...

On another note, while taking a closer look at that section of the map, I noticed that the Kentucky River is spelled Kentucjy.

Yep! And Camp Nelson would be right next to it in the Fayette region.

IIRC, It was also the site of Camp Dick Robinson, not Louisville. Camp Dick Robinson was in Garrard County near Bryantsville (North of Lancaster), about 10 miles ENE of Danville. The only modern signs that it was there are a historical marker at the intersection od US 27 and KY 34 and Camp Dick Rob...

That's what you get for putting your wedding ahead of playing ACW. You miss all the changes while on your honeymoon.

Looking at the log it's in the unit defs.

It's funny you mention this, because I was just browsing one of the used book stores in my neighborhood, and ran across a copy for $35. It's a beaut, but I wasn't really looking for a gigantic hardbound yesterday so I passed...but I think you've inspired me to go back today and lighten my disposabl...

As for the other line, it looks to me to me far enough west of Purdy so as it should not enter the province. 'Cause I'm looking at the rail maps, and this is a line running slightly SE from Humboldt, not really getting near the river, then into Corinth where a "plus sign" crossroads is formed. It's...

14) Knox TN <-> Greene TN <-> Sevior TN. If you mean the one going to Newport then I agree with you. Actually Newport should be removed as it was basically nothing more than a tavern by the side of the road in those days. And even though it was moved a couple of miles after the war to be on the rai...

LMUBill

Totally missed the arrow. oops.

Has the unit moved at all during those three turns? The unit would be entrenching if it hasn't moved so maybe that's what it is showing.

LMUBill

I am sure this is mentioned somewhere else, but I tend to get irritated trying to find the right combinations of words to find what I am looking for. So I am going to ask again. First the picture of what is going on. http://img160.imageshack.us/img160/8803/repairww1.gif OK, now the question. The ra...

So does this mean that the unit stack with Pinkerton in it will show enemy numbers 10-100 times higher than they actually are?

If you are going to add this might as well be historially accurate with it.

LMUBill

I'll be. I wonder why they would put a "planned" railroad on a Congressionally mandated geologic survey as if it already existed? Especially since the map has a key symbol for "planned" road, rail, and canal routes. Maybe money was the issue. all the maps in the Official Military Atlas have the rai...

I'm not sure if the CSA are doomed, but it certainly seems like they are in trouble now - nothing to oppose Burnside, & in addition to beating Johnston, it sounds like Grant is ready to attack again. It sounds like the situation at Hardeeville was a repeat of the historical defeat at Fort Donelson ...

LMUBill

You might want to remove that whole section through Lebanon to Mt. Vernon in Kentucky as well. Had that railroad been there, the battle of Perryville (and the chase of the Confederates by the Union afterward) would have been very different. The route the railroad follows was a macadamized road as fa...

The others don't appear in the game. Watie was the only one to become a general. As it is, only Watie and Drew (both Cherokee) are included (Watie as a leader and a unit, Drew as a unit), Cooper commanded a regiment of Choctaw and Chickasaw, McIntosh commanded a Creek unit. I know that Willliam Tho...

I've never read Foote and don't really intend to. There has been much more research done and new resources discovered in the 40 years since Foote's series. To me it seems most history books written in the 1950-60's tend to be biased one way or the other. All history books are biased in some way. Pe...

Well, though I can't rise to his defense, one Robert E. Lee was asked who his most skilled opponent was on the battlefield (question came after the war) and he said, McClellan. Well... considering he would only consider McClellan, Burnside, Hooker, Meade and Grant as possible answers to that questi...

LMUBill

George McClellan also served as president (I believe) of the Illinois Central railroad, employing his good friend Ambrose Burnside. Since Lincoln was a prominent attorney in railroad law, and did I believe handle some cases for the IC, I have always wondered if he and McClellan had known each other...

I could be wrong, but he was the one who SENT McClellan. Davis didn't go himself.

LMUBill

Minister of War Jefferson Davis and Captain Mc Clellan were in Crimea during siege of Sebastopol. It seems they were really impressed by Russian fierce defence , especially Mc Clellan. A question to those who maybe know better than me : Do you think Mc Clellan future ( passive) attitude during civi...
