OK, I have started this game over 26 (yes I have counted them) times and each time (except for the first 3 turns) I have realized the farther I get in this game that the first few moves are CRITICAL and to NOT concentrate on just the Virginia Front.
I have a couple of questions before I start game 27.
1. Engineer's...Do they go in the Army, Corps, or Division Stack for benifits (I really get tired of the ambiguous description's of units attributes and who they benifit)?
2. When you have a General that says "it is stactic and won't leave the region" is that for just a few turns or is it there for the duration, and WHY is it static if it says it can lead a command this turn?
Is the REGION the small area around it or is it the 'Grand Region' in the filters?
And since we are talking about static generals...when R.E. Lee apprears it says he is PERMANTLY static in Richmond. How the heck can I lose at Gettysberg if I'm stuck in Richmond?
AND since we are talking about Lee I have this question.
I played a game and when Lee came on board I gave him command of Northern Virginia. Johnston went NUTS and I lost like 200 V points.
Soooo, my question is this, Can I buy a generic HQ give it to Johnston first THEN give Lee command of Northern Viginia and everyone be happy? (but what about A.P.Johnson (seniority3 in the west) will HE go nuts or is it just when Generals are close to each other that it matters?
This seniority thing makes a lot of sense in theory but do you REALLY have to follow it to the letter?
I mean Lee is 4 and AP is 3 so DO i need to make 4 armies to get Lee in the saddle?
I WILL get past turn 17!!! (with your help guys)
Thanks as usual....I'm sure I will have 3 more questions tomorrow (I certainly hope some other Noob is following my posts and gets some good out of them).
