Cannot create new army

[K-1stPennaRes]

This may have already been reported, in which case, my apologies. General Grant has commanded an army for over a year (it is fall 1863), but when I attempt to give an army to somebody else, I am told that Grant is next in line for command, and if I attempt to do this, I will lose 260 or so Victory Points. Obviously, I will not do this, so I am stuck with just four armies.

I have the most recent patch installed, and would have taken a screenshot, but for some reason, Paint is not in the mood for me to do this.

Thanks,

B.C. Milligan

Have you tried assigning the new army to see what happens? Does it apply the penalty? It could be a tooltip error rather than an error in actually applying the penalty. Just a thought.

Can you send me the save? Here is the procedure:
Open the following game directory: Ageod American civil war\ACW\Saves. The list of folders is the list of the games you have on your computer. Select the one with the problem (if you are unsure of the name, the time stamp can help you), then do a right click: you should have a menu to zip it into an archive, as a single file. Zip the game, and then send it by mail if under 5 Mb, or by a website* if bigger (there should be only one file to send).

*sending by a website: you can try unbase.com, the operating procedure is as simple as sending a mail.
