It's funny, it always looks really complex at the start, but once you become familiar with the nomenclature and the unit values and the flow of play, it becomes second nature and you can make decisions a lot more thoughtfully and clearly (and quickly).

These were just some of the incredible board games from the late '70's onward. Card games, too! A friend of mine I had the pure luck to work with for a few years, Craig Taylor, Sr., made a card game called Naval Wars for I think Avalon Hill. Absolutely fun game. Had the chance to work with him, Arno...

I still look forward to this, whenever it completes. Have been in my own mines in the interim, hopefully my schedule will let up just at the point the gold version is available. ;)

It was a bit confusing to me, as I also have Alea Jactha Est, and thought hey, that's already installed to 1.03..... so I skipped, believing what I read.... and just got Bloody Roads installed into 1.02. So yes, I then had to uninstall, reinstall 1.00, THEN NOT skip the wrongly-named 1.03 patch, THE...

Yes, I had thought that might be the case.

Great tracks, though, I'll listen to them on my portable music player instead. :)

Otherwise it's been as stable as granite so far!

I'm getting crashes with the full list, either all, Republicans or Nationalists. I'm going to edit it down just to include a few songs, it may be the long list overruns some sort of buffer in the game or something. :sherlock: Update: never mind, all is fine with the latest patch.

Okay, thank you. I am not privy to what defines readiness to declare a patch official, so I will leave it to you all to decide. :) Suffice to say, I'm impressed with the improvements already available in 1.01b and 1.01c, and I hope other new players will learn to check these forums frequently for up...

Something I've seen once, in a Paradox game (Crusader Kings 2) is having a button that simply links to articles in Wikipedia with historical information. I love this idea! Simplifies things, no need to completely rewrite the same info for the game, so saves time, and most Wikipedia articles are far ...

I'm glad to have these patches. Thank you! I have purchased my AGEOD games through Matrix Games, and while I like their auto-updating system, it seems it has not kept up with updates to AGEOD games (this one, and World War 1). Is it a policy thing, or as simple as someone here kicking someone over t...

I notice mine = 0. Can I edit that file with Notepad to change it? Or is it just an option you can set in the menu?

I don't have RUS yet -- was about to get it but then saw Espana 1936 and that a RUS Gold is on the way, so I picked up Espana 1936 instead. But I will gladly provide any feedback on RUS Gold when it is time (whether beta or after release) with the perspective of what I think is working well in Espan...

I am actively focused on Espana 1936, so I will be ready when you are. Espana 1936 is an excellent, thorough design, and quite deep; I am surprised it hasn't achieved a wider audience yet. The tutorials are the best I've seen in an AGEOD game, the campaign is massive, the interface is quite intuitiv...

Thank you for such a quick reply! I found that link in the forum, I will download it and just ignore updating via Matrix after it's installed, I assume that should work.

Amazing you respond so quickly for a game you've been working on for so many years; I admire your patience and fortitude!

Couple of brief newbie questions

Hi! I've become enamored of everything AGEOD is doing, and picked this up at Matrix Games recently. Astonishing game. I am on a Windows 8.1 64 Pro system, seemed to install okay and I checked the registry key in the Wow3264 node and it seems consistent with those for other AGEOD games. I am noticing...

I do not really think that the Roman's ever really ceased campaigning and like Vaalen writes, the armies of the Republic were pretty much deployed from mobilization to war's end. This actually contributed to the downfall of the Republic since citizen-soldiers serving in the Legions could lose their...

Is there any way possible to replace the existing tracks with .mp3s of your own? Any editing of .txt files and such needed to do so, or renaming the .mp3 to the same name as an existing file?
