Thank you, and good on pointing out the compound questions. 1. I will take my marines out of the sea and treat them like elite infantry. 2. When I capture a ship, I get to keep it? In AJE they simply sank. 3. I think I will keep my SOTL in my main fighting task force and the small ships as raiders a...

Naval Questions (Marines, Heavy vs Light vs Raiders, High seas fleet, Sea Zones

Hi, After fixing a persistent crash issue thanks to tweaking video settings, I am finally able to cut my teeth in this game. I have several naval related questions playing as Ottomans in the January 1805 long campaign. 1. What determines what I receive from my merchants in Sea zones? For most zones,...

Hi everyone. I am also having crashes every turn, along with french error messages that looks like access violations to ngc. I read above that contacting Slitherine for a dll could help. Is there a way to make that help/dll in the next patch or post it publicly? This is mainly for convenience since ...

Replies: 4

I think the OP is referring to the way AGEOD engine models replacements. Each replacement replaces a variable amount of hits, the rule being that for every hit it replaces there is a 10% chance of the chit being consumed. Therefore if I need to replace 40 line infantry hits, I would buy 4 chits to b...

Is there any counter against this superb Republican Strategy playing as Nationalists? Durruty unlocks in turn 2, and takes 11 days by train to arrive, That gives Nationalists 3 turns to Prepare.

I am under the impression that italian troops under spanish command will take MORE CP to command properly, unless the Spaniard has some Italian commanding special ability, which I don't think exists.

Gilbraltar is on map, but a non enterable region belonging to Britain. Same applies to portugal and France. Frankly I believe there should be a high EP option allowing the republicans to invade portugal once they send in the viriatos (who have the exact stats as irish catholics?!).

The nationalists start with a very decent general with many abilities, one of which is recruiting officer. It states he has to be in a city, and if that is done, nationalists should gain +5 conscripts per turn, which is a lot early game. Does this guy have to be inside (enter structure) to work, or ...

Thank you OP. The trailer of Land and Freedom seems very good. My prior movie exposure on SCW was only Pan's labyrinth, and that was a very biased film.

I find it amazing that the AGE engine could work for SCW, what other conflicts can it model? Chinese civil war 1924-1950?

For divisions, in late 1936 there will be a message for nationalists saying they can now form divisions. NO divisions prior to this. This occurs roughly about the same time republicans get brigade mixtas. I guess this signifies the transition from the militia to regular army.
