I ran into this problem a few years back, today re-installed the game fresh, applied 1.05 patch, and loaded it up. The problem still exists. Yep, I just finished a game of the 1st Punic war today and noticed the same problem. I also tried doing a clean re-install and applying the 1.05 patch; the co...
I just discovered Dexter Hoyos, how I managed to miss reading his works over all these years is unbelievable, and I'm working my way through his Mastering the West with the help of the Barrington Atlas of the Greek and Roman World and Michael Grant's A Guide to the Ancient World . Wow, Hoyos is good...
Sorry, what I have to say is no help with PON doom stacks. But, in the more current Ageod games, a high traffic penalty is said to limit Athena's use of monster stacks.
Hi, Straight Arrow, what settings did you use? Sorry Taillebois, I've been out for a while. The settings were: Fog of war - on Delayed commitment - small Foreign entry - normal Historical attrition - both for player and AI Automated replacements - no Battle planner - off Activation rule - veteran R...
Finished a game as the king against Athena by taking all the objective cities, but the victory screen never came up. I ran several turns past to make sure, but the game just kept on going.
Please don't give the game's secrets away. I enjoyed finding a decision I had overlooked on earlier plays. It'll become like other games where they say "wait for the "XXX" event, then declare war on Y". Fortunately I only read part of your post before realising what was happenin...
edit: Heads up - spoiler alert for some events. Do not read on unless you wish to have knowledge of the event before the event. Here is the start of a list; please jump in to correct or add information. Sources of WS for the king: 2 Grab Weapons events, late July 1642 & early February 1643, eac...
Well I feel dumb. I just discovered that you can combine the same type of units if they are from the same area. So, I've been blending units like mad in an attempt to wipe out a sea of red elements and create an army that's more then a hollow shell. Perhaps this will also help reduce major NM loses ...
I've been looking over the map and counting on my fingers. I'm pretty sure that a power mill, arms manufacture, textile industry, and arsenal all produce 1 WS each, except for London which produces more. Trade ports and requisition offices on the other hand seem to produce money. Using all of Englan...

Points to Know - Central Powers EAW is a massive and daunting game. In order to learn it, I scoured though the threads to find information for a crib sheet. Previously, in a thread called “Points to Know – CSA”, I did the same thing for Civil War 2. Please look over the following material. Challenge...
yeah, naval planes are just regular scout planes, as normal land based ones. And yeah, you can play gamey and use naval planes at land for scouting, or restrict yourself and use them for scouting only on coastal regions. Lots and lots of bush planes in Alaska are float planes. The floats do drop yo...
I'm playing the Full Campaign solo; currently it's late Dec 1914. My losses are at almost 1 million, but the replacement chits that came with mobilization have not been used. Somehow, my units keep filling the combat caused gaps in my ranks with replacements that seem to be springing up out of the g...
As noted, the south may have initially had an advantage due to the larger percentage of West Point graduates in their ranks and the strength of the militia tradition across the south. Maybe not such an advantage at all; I believe Maj. Gen. George Pickett said, "The Yankees got all the smart on...
After units have been in play for a while, I have trouble remembering the areas they came from and thus trouble with buying the correct replacement chit.
3. The mescaleros show up as Indian, i.e., Native American units. I suppose that if the Native Americans are on your side, then so are the mescaleros. Yep, they are Native Americans. Mescaleros are Apaches and were renowned warriors. The current tribe is a blend of Mescaleros, Lipan Apaches from Te...
A few quick thoughts after my first ECW Parliament campaign: Both sides will find that their main force is locked into protecting or threatening a capitol. Oxford and London are close enough that it is almost impossible to shift forces elsewhere without opening your heart to a game losing thrust. Be...
I’m just finishing up a campaign game as Parliament and have a few questions: Other than the Gain Support RDC, how can one shift an areas loyalty? Does the Storm card work? If so, how? edit: upgraded to 1.03 and the Storm card now works. I was able to raise London and Southern Association troops. Bu...
Just a heads up. It's time to help readers wading though the sticky “Points to Know - CSA” thread by resetting the orange, new information sections to black text. If you have not looked at the post for a while, It might be worth your time to skim over the new material before the 6/30/17 reset. Pleas...
Weather and terrain traversing effect combat frontage. The number of days it takes a force to enter an area directly reduces the number of elements deployable on the battlefield.
Looking for advise from a master of retreat or a Jubilation T Cornpone. Often, as the CSA, I buy only infantry and artillery replacements and forgo purchasing any for cavalry. It appears that this may have led to my forces taking heavy losses when retreating after battles. Is this actually the case?...
