Yes these were oceanic transport units that I had used for other missions and they were carrying marines. This as become slightly irrelevant because more important the game is now crashing every turn since I reached October 1870. Iam runing the 1.02 Patch and I wonder if it cant cope with the campai...
The British are officially at war with Portugal and are trying to land marines on the Azores and other Portugese island chains supported by the navy. Unfortunatly no matter what compbaination of ships and troops I use I get a message telling me that I cannot enter this area. Its not just Portugese i...
I assume that most of the posters live in North America and so one political scenario that will be familar to you all are the reasons why Britain almost intervened but diddnt in the ACW. Historicaly the Trent Affair almost brought Britain into the war but for the intervention of Prince Albert from h...
Please contact me when your ready. What you and the AI presumably needs to know is what circumstances trigger historical crises eg Fashoda Also consider the influance of political as well as military leaders. Supposing Prince Albert hadnt died in 1861 or Kaiser Frederick in 1888. Also some tweaking ...
Iam a historian with degrees in British political and military history during the C19 - C20 and I could have helped them on the political side of the game but as you said there is no one to 'call'. My beef with Agoed as everyone knows was that I couldnt get PON to run but know its stable I would hav...
Whats the HDD? Generaly I agree with the concept of event chains and pre programmed events the latter should be rare. As you said having a random element makes it more interesting. Infact I can only think of two scenarios that fit that latter catagory and likely to trigger WW.I and thats any great p...
Playing as Britain during the 1850's there as been no Crimean war but the AI started the American civil war in 1858. How variable are these major historical crises? Btw the AI frequently creates a Franco-British Tahiti Crises in 1851 the historical problem with that being that dispute actually occur...
No the patch and PON are direct downloads from Agoed and not associated with STEAM and they are for PON 1.01 which is the download game sold on the UK Agoed website. I have reinstalled the patch four times with the same result it crashes at the same end point. The patch was installed from withinside...
It’s not just the point in the game that it crashes that’s frustrating it’s also the historical scholarship that’s gone into the game, I teach this era of history, thats impressive but for me let down by a crash that prevents the game being played further. The game is a download as are all of my AGO...
Installed the Quebec patch and PON still crashes at about turn 65-75 of the campaign game. This is the 5th attempt to play this retchid game time to ask for my money back under UK has the game is unplayable.
Actually PON is a better AGOED game than Heart of Iron that cannot be installed.
Perhaps because PONI starts in 1850 the 1838 London Treaty that gaurented Belgian independance should automaticaly come into play if any of the signatory nations invade Belgium? This being the treaty that Bismarck scruplusly observed during the Franco-Prussian War with the pay of of British neutrali...
All I want is to install the patch and I published my key because the next question put by someone here will be prove its not an ilegal copy Actually I estimate that I have spent about £90 on Agoed/Paradox products of which HOI 2 and extentions wont install (I talked to someone in the help line abou...
Iam looking for a game with campaign scenarios of about 100 – 200 turns maximum which I think is the norm for PC Strategy games. But if Iam wrong then perhaps AGOED should emphasis in its sales literature the 1000+ turns for that surely would be a significant selling point that would attract gamers ...
For some reason this game dosnt include time compression which is a standard feature games such as Cold War and AACW. This should be a question of personal preferance so if you want to spend years playing a single scenario fine just as their should be the option to speed up play and also reduce the ...
I hope that in the patch for PON will permit a flexible time scale for the Grand Campaign. I realy would like to play the entire game from 1850 through to 1920 but at 1800+ moves!! that makes the campaign game unplayable. Why not allow standard turns of 1 year slowed down to small bits of time when ...
