War Bonds Don't Issue

[brettossman]

Is there a reason war bonds won't issue when requested? I select them and get Davis' signature but they never issue according to the messages and money. The next turn I can request them again, over and over. I am playing the 1862 East Scenario. A couple of other scenarios seem to work fine.

The most common reason events do not fire is that you are not playing in administrative mode, that is, when you started the game you did not specify the game to run as an admin. If that does not fix, write back.

Thanks for the reply.

Where do I find this? I looked through the Options and didn't see anything about an "administrative" mode. I have played other scenarios, and war bonds worked fine.

Before you start the game. I'm assuming you're using Windows. Right click the icon and select
"run as administrator".

Oh THAT !!!
LOL

I'll give it a go.

[brettossman]

Well, that didn't help either, but thanks yet again.

I posted this on the Steam CW2 Tech Support board to see if that gets me anywhere. May just be a bug in this scenario. Fortunately there are plenty of others.

How do you mean, "war bonds won't issue"? How are you assessing this, and what are you expecting to happen?

IIRC issuing war bonds simply gives you money and might lower inflation a bit.

[brettossman]

The increase doesn't appear, and I can still request war bonds again on my next turn. When it works in other scenarios, I see the major increase.

Oh, it may be that you are playing a short scenario, just a guess.

[brettossman]

No, it's a 117 turns, if number of turns is what you are referring to.

1862 East Scenario

[DrPostman]

I think that feature is disabled in all the scenarios. I always play campaign so I could
be wrong on that.

[Captain_Orso]

Could it be that you have auto-replacements turned on?

[brettossman]

They aren't, and other scenarios and campaigns I've played are working.
