Hello all!

First, sorry for my bad english.. its not my home language (im german btw.) :)
Well, me and my civilwar reenactment group waiting for this game since 2-3 month. It sounds awesome and i cant wait until tomorrow!

So, i have some questions about the music ingame. can one of the devs give me a list of the civilwar songs playing in this game? only instrumental?
can you give us 1-2 examples from the soundtrack? and whats about sounds in game?

well, thats all for now. thank you very much!

Hallo Hinkel,
hier eine Liste der Musikstücke die im Spiel zu hören sein werden. Ich habe ehrlich gesagt keine große Ahnung von Civil War Musik, das sind einfach die Dateinamen der Musikstücke. Soweit ich weiß wurden sie extra für das Spiel von einer Band eingespielt. Die Musikstücke sind instrumental.
Bonnie Blue Flag
Dixie's Land
GarryOwen
Battle Cry of Freedom
Battle Hymn of the Republic
When Johnny Comes Marching Home
Marching Through Georgia
Stonewall Jackson's Way
White Stockade
Devil's Dream
John Brown's March
Minstrel Boy
Arkansas Traveler
Waiting for the Federals
Liza Jane
Mississippi Sawyer
Road to Boston
Rosin the Beau

(Hi Hinkel,
here a list of the pieces of music. Frankly speaking I don't know much about Civil War music, this is simply a list of the music files. As far as I know they are especially recorded for the game by a band.)

I hope the sounds are as good as the ones on the BOA demo. I was playing it the other night shortly after downloading it and was flipping throuhg a Civil War article when the battle occured. Apparently I had the sound up a little and cannons began to roar and..well it scared the hell out of me. The sounds in BOA are fantastic and I am assuming the will be no less so for A-ACW.

You'll soon get it (I hope) and realize that the sounds for AACW simply blow the ones for BoA out of the water. Us Beta testers didn't even get to hear them until the last couple of days, and man, I was very impressed, especially with my PC hooked into the surround sound. :)

I am absolutely getting it. I will be ready for the sounds and maybe not thrown whatever is in my hands in the air at the first fight.

Soundtrack is awesome, guys. I'll just play it in the background for its own enjoyment.

It sounds like it would be good Southern Gardening Music (I love to garden here in North Carolina), and for eating on the back porch and sippin' Mint Juleps.

YeeHaw!
