Certain things really need to be revealed and recorded in the info ledger. Things like:
- Enemy moving Capitol
- Enemy instituting a draft
- Enemy printing money (this could be a bit redundant, though)
- more to come when I think of 'em
These really are important pieces of information on a national level, and they should be displayed for players to notice. Who picks up and sneaks their capitol and others don't find out about it? OK, Napoleon notwithstanding...![]()

My first two PBEM games were a complete waste of time. As a newbie, I went the historical route of calling for volunteers with $1000 bounty. Both my opponents went full mobization with maximum income. So my choice of volunteers provided 256 conscript points while my opponents brought in probably around 1000 conscript points. I surrendered the first game in Feb 62 with the loss of Washington DC. My defending troops at Washington were actually outnumbered by 2-1 in that battle which lost Washington. (Historically, the Union had 180,000 troops to Lees 60,000 in the Virginia theater in 62.) The second game is in April 62 and I still have not fought a battle in which I, as the Union, wasn't outnumbered. And I should just concede as I am so far in the hole that I strongly suspect it isn't remotely possible to recover from my recruiting mistakes in 61.

I prefer it that way - this ahistorical manpower, IMO, kills the game and makes it lose historic relevancy. I don't care if guys think "it's fun" - that is what Age of Kings and all that crap is for.
Rough day....leure:

Are the losses from the battle permament, or do any return after a battle? (like lightly wounded or stragglers rejoining later.)
