I did not. I shall try that next time. Thanks!

What do you do with the Dakota units when they appear in Wisconsin? I tried taking Michilimakinac with them but they disappear after two turns and did not make it there. What is the most effective way to make an impact with them within those two turns?

Civil War II and To End All Wars have pretty good activity on Steam. What is the reason for the delay on bringing Thirty Years War to Steam? It really doesn't make sense for either the publishers or Steam to reject the idea now that the last three AGEOD games are all there.

I definitely tend to ignore the naval aspects of most games so that may be part of my problem. I felt too weak for much of the game, especially early on Lake Erie where I think there is only two boats. Maybe I should wait until 1813 for sending out the ships so I can build more and get better leader...

1812 as United States

In the 1812 scenario what position should the Americans be in by the end of 1813 before the new wave of British reinforcements arrive? I'm not really sure where the initial focus should be to give the Americans an advantage by 1814. Are there any cities that are considered essential to take and defe...

I just got this one during GMT's fall sale. If anyone wants to play a game through Vassal (or Mr Madison's War) let me know.

Putting the game on Steam should help. I actually forgot that this game was already released.

That's good to know. I have a few other questions after finishing the War of 1812 scenario. Is it a good idea to consider morale checks before entering battle? What should you look for in your units that may indicate having a good chance of passing their morale checks? Are some events unavoidable? "...

Yes I played through King William's War and I'm more than halfway through the War of 1812 and it definitely makes more sense now. Though I guess there is no way to direct where specifically the new element is going to be sent to? Also how do replacements work when an element is not destroyed? Like i...

Oh ok great I understand now. Thanks alot for the help. I think I'm ready to try the longer scenarios so I'm sure I'll be back with more questions when I finish some of them.

Sorry I'm still confused. Do the units under Available Replacements enter automatically, independent of those you have control over in Military/Diplomatic Options? Or do they just sit in the Available Replacements screen until you purchase them through the Military/Diplomatic Options?

Oh so you mean that units are actually recruited in the "Military Options" and "Diplomatic Options" screens? What exactly is the "Available Replacements" screen for then? What do the units it shows mean and why does it sometimes have units displayed like the screenshot above and sometimes it has not...

Are you talking about this screen? I don't see anything that indicates what the units' cost may be. Even the tooltips don't mention the cost of building them.

That makes sense now. Of course I had no EPs at the start of the scenario. But I cannot find how many EPs are required to produce each unit. Surely different types of units have different costs? I just found this actually. So does that mean one regular infantry element will cost 3 EPs? 28rhzj4.jpg

Thanks for the replies guys! I got a couple more questions. Sorry if this stuff is in the manual. I try to look through it but usually only find answers to my questions half of the time. Just to clarify the "Available Replacements" screen (it just feels weird because nothing happens when the button ...

List of Questions

I started playing this game last summer and since then I played each of the scenarios that are less than 20 turns and gathered a list of questions. After reading most of the manual and playing most of the King Williams War scenario I decided to come here with the questions that I could not find clea...
