Issues from my current pbm game
Posted: Fri Nov 16, 2007 6:34 am
I am playing as the usa in a pbm game. A couple of issues I would appreciate comments on please. using 1.07f latest.
It is winter 1862/1863. The mississippi river is currently frozen from columbus to port hudson - I from the uk so I do not know if this can really happen in real life - seems unlikely to me especially as far south as port hudson. my union river fleet is currently stuck frozen in at vicksburg.
Trying to capture Richmond I hold fredericksburg and Petersburg as well as the non city regions to the w,sw,nw of richmond but there is a very large csa army in richmond under Lee which is proving impossible to beat. I have cut all the rail links into richmond and am blockading the port but so far (after several months of fighting) the csa seems to have plenty of supplies and ammo for an army of 6 divisions or more. Can one city ie richmond generate on its own enough supplies and ammo to support such a large army ? If so this seems very unrealistic. If supplies are getting into the city how is the question with no rail and no port. Supply movement is a bit of a mystery to me to be honest.

. Did read it today and really enjoyed. Althought I started as beta and worked on this game from it's start I still found few things in your wiki that I didn't know.
