Does it have to do with control of the region? Could someone offer up a clear explanation of what this means?
Thanks in advance,

Question on Tooltip Comment
What does the highlighted (red) area mean in this shot?

Never saw something like it. It looks like a bug to me.Forrest said something about killing a Yankee for each of his horses that they shot. In the last days of the war, Forrest had killed 30 of the enemy and had 30 horses shot from under him. In a brief but savage conflict, a Yankee soldier "saw glory for himself" with an opportunity to kill the famous Confederate General... Forrest killed the fellow. Making 31 Yankees personally killed, and 30 horses lost...
He remarked, "I ended the war a horse ahead."

We need to know a bit more about the tooltip...for instance which unit is currently selected ? which side is being played ?
Suppose your stack has lowest spped (wheeled units), then the cost for entering a region with mud conditions (10 days) + major river crossing (8 days) is not far from the figure indicated... we'll double check this, but would appreciate a save of the current situation...

I sent the save to support@ageod.com.
Here's another screen of the same situation, this time showing what's in the stack selected. With a 35% command penalty and a few rivers to cross (plus artillery), 26 days probably is close to the truth

Yeah. I wasn't even thinking it was a bug. With those rivers around and the mud and types and shape of troops, the amount of days didn't seem excessive.
All I wanted to know was what the tooltip meant. I ignored the obvious meaning and thought the tip releated to how long it would take the region to become totally Union controlled.
Especially that the text is red, and not the usual white
Were you serious about this? I see the smiley but wasn't sure. The red text (as you might already know) was but in by me.

Me too Forrest said something about killing a Yankee for each of his horses that they shot. In the last days of the war, Forrest had killed 30 of the enemy and had 30 horses shot from under him.

There must be some sort of language barrier going on here. All I asked about the tooltip was what the highlighted red text meant. I mentioned nothing about a bug, or whether the tip or information was appropriate or not.

Well, I sent the file because someone recommended that I do so. When I posted, I did not have a bug in mind, but only wanted some information. But when someone mentioned that the 26 days might be a bug, I sent it along.
No harm done, hopefully. Considering that the unit had to cross the river twice and in inhospitable conditions, I didn't think that 26 days was too much.

Alan made the text red for the screenshot, so that we'd see it easier. (but it just confused people )
It is not red in the game.
He wanted to know what "Number of days to enter this region (only): 26" meant.
The answer?.......
It's the same number of days that is displayed when you drag a unit on the map.
It is on the tool-tip also.
