I wouldn't say fort the WoI campaign, as it goes on mostly populated areas, but for the F&I war, they are indeed a must have. Especially if playing as the British, as they must be on the offensive, and need to cross great deserted areas of wilderness in order to reach their objectives. Erecting fort...

I'll remember the Frankenputer!

I'm going to have to disagree with that. Such "good point" has also been a way for the gaming industry to blame its more than often poor coding optimization on the players not spending half their monthly income to upgrade to a new machine every year to keep up with the not so useful graphic goodies ...

You're welcome

Grey, that's a nice piece of laptop you've got here! As for the operating system, Vista is no longer the hog it used to be. Seriously. Most of its faults have been fixed with SP1. Don't ask for a downgraded system when you buy it. Either wait a few months and you'll be able to buy your computer with...

Rafiki, I envy you :neener: I use a laptop, but that's only because I need moveability for work. For gaming, I'd definitely go for a desktop if I could afford an extra computer. While I agree some games can run well enough on a laptop, especially low graphic intensive games such as wargames, it can'...

It reminds me of the printing of my thesis works

For what I remember, it is indeed that expensive, especially since you went for laser and high quality paper. At least you'll have something worth standing on a bookshelf!

As far as I know, French regiments didn't have nicknames. They were named either after the region they were raised in ("Berry", "Languedoc", "Guyenne"...) or after their owner ("La Reine"). "Royal Roussillon" would then mean that regiment was that of the Roussillon region, and was property of the ki...

I really don't feel the need or the desire to try to search for an explanation for the unlawful practices of these pirates. I will take a guess though and assume that the lure of much more money from piracy than from honest fishing might be at least one cause. Sometimes the world is simply black an...

I was going to argue that this scene has been overused for all kinds of complaining, but it is indeed well done, and quite sharp

Why do I picture him as president Salengro?

I didn't know that one about Maupassant. Great find!

Also, I would prefer to see: Bn versus B. for Battalion Rgt versus R. for Regiment I'm with you on that one! Although for "foote" vs "foot" I'm not sure. As I understand it this is old English (but you may correct me). If we're going this way, there would be many more changes to make in order to br...

This doesn't leave much room for lobbying, does it?

Game engine limitation?!

I thought there was no such thing with AGEOD

The pleasure is mine, really

I had a peak at the scenario while translating it in French (although at times you do it rather mechanically without actually reading what you're looking at). You seem to have done a pretty good job at putting together events to reflect the complexity of the conflict. I'm definitely looking forward ...

Aside of the "crushing defeat" of the Indians at Bushy Run, which was really only a draw, but enough to shatter the Indian will to continue fighting, it was an enjoyable watch.

Thank you!

TiFlo

That looks great Hobbes!! Thanks a lot for the preview :thumbsup: :coeurs: EDIT: While you may not have permission to use them in your campaign, since you seem to enjoy treating us with immersion pictures in your AAR, you could find the following useful (only links to the images, I don't want to ove...

1) AACW. The bigger, the deeper. Seriously though, it has so many units, so vast a map, and so many potentialy different strategies that give it a depth worthy of countless hours of "just-one-more-turn" and/or "what-about-I-do this-instead-of-that?". 2) WIA. The operationnal focusing of that game, c...

As often with computers, you'll find as many different opinions as there are advices. Some say your virtual memory has to be left as it is (you let the system decide). Some say the bigger, the better. Others say it has to be 1.5 the size of your memory. I have mine set at 3Go (min & max), which is 1...

Excellent anniversaire !!

I figured there would be something along those lines, as experienced in AACW. It's good to read though that you're working on correcting this with the war of 1812 scenarii(/o). As Arsan said, thank you so much for your never ending efforts in enhancing this already more than great game :thumbsup: :c...

This AAR pretty much tells the same story as yours, Arsan. The guy is playing the British, and has control over most all of western Europe after only 15-20 turns. He conquered France in the few first turns, then rolled over Spain and its colonies... Indeed, either the AI or the balance, or both, li...

J'ai peut être raté quelque chose en route, ou mal compris ta stratégie, mais il me semble que tu as envoyé Beaujeu créer des ennuis dont tu aurais pu te passer.

Playing the "1759, Annus Mirabilis" scenario, as the French (1.04c + Community Mod). Expecting Wolfe and his dreaded army to come for the onslaught to Québec, I had Montcalm and 3/4 of the French army dig in on the Beauport shores from the first month of the scenario. The British would not put one s...
