From the AAR I wrote in the AAR board :
In early november 1862 I have lost around 45 000 men in 15 days of battle from battle damage, + many hits from weather. As a result a corp under Jackson (1500 Av to begin with) was wiped out completely and Lee's Army of the Potomac went from 2500 Av to less than 400.
Now the odd part : I check my replacement and recruiting pool and I have 1 000 money ( I printed 2 turns ago so makes sense) and 1 000 conscripts that appeared from nowhere !!!!
I hadn’t levied any men so I don’t know where they came from ??? Did all men from Jackson’s Corp desert to join the recruiting center ? Anyway I’ll need them all so I can recruit many Brigades, but I just wandered if this was WAD ?
I'll answer the easy question from your AAR thread.
Hover the mouse over a save to get the tool-tip.
Hit the Delete key to erase that save.
The small "computer" button in the upper right corner toogles between showing/not-showing the AI's file for each save.
All of your old turns should still be saved in the "Saves" folder.
C:\Program Files\AGEod's American Civil War\ACW\Saves
They will be labeled Backup1, Backup2, etc... the larger number being the previous turn.
( by the way how do I clean the save game folder in the main screen, it is full of old games...)

I guess it would be to complicated to divide the quantity by 6 and to add a 1/6th during 5 turns ? What I mean is that I understand deserters, stragglers and lightly injured soldiers would fill back the ranks, but more in a 3 months span rather than suddenly the day after the battle ?
I understand it might be complicated, and actually it isn't a big deal since the conscripts have to be recruited and formed again.. Actually forget what I said, it works fine that way.
The interesting thing with this game, and I'll try to play the backup if I can find it, with the new patch is how would the new check for losses have influenced the battle... It will be interesting to compare..

Well basically I had 3 full big divisions (16-18 elements) wiped out and 5 divisions that lost 50 to 70% of their forces... + probably 4 supply wagons gone as well as a medic unit. so that would be around 12 000*3 + 7 000*5 + 1200*4 = 76 000 casualties. Since about 40-45 000 happened in battles, that means 30-35 000 casualties were due to either surrendering outside of battle (parts of Jackson's corp may have surrendered when Harpers Ferry fell) or winter hits...
Rough estimate there of course.
