Hi,

I'm new to this game and after playing the Union until March '62 I have some questions.

1) How do I build a Depot?
2) I've seen some people mention Gen. Lyon in their AARs, but in my game he never showed up. Why?
3) Early '62 I raised my 3rd Army, I put Gen. Butler(?) in Command. He's the general with the next highest seniority. But one Turn later Admiral Farragut is angry because of higher seniority. Why is that? Can Admirals lead Armys?
4) Some gunboats were build in Chicago, they are of no use for me up there. Can I disband them? If if yes, how?

I hope you guys can help me...

Depending on how some events ("St. Louis massacre" & friends, I think?) resolve themselves, he may or may not show up.

I'm fairly sure this is a bug

4) Some gunboats were build in Chicago, they are of no use for me up there. Can I disband them? If if yes, how?

Dunno if you can disband them, but you can send them to the Mississippi river system via the Erie and Ohio canal (unless it is frozen, in which case you'll have to wait till it unfreezes before sending them through). In general, I can recommend http://ageod.nsen.ch/aacwwiki/FAQ as a place that answers some of the questions you might have about the game, seeing as you are far from the first to ask questions like this

So much to learn...

Thanks for the quick reply!

The 3. is surely a bug and was fixed with 1.07rc3.
