I wanted to thank everyone for answering all my questions. I achieved my goal in this game, I wanted to defeat the north playing as the confederacy and I finally acheved that goal. Great game.

What do the marines do, what do they add and when should they be used? Do they add some ability to a stack?

This question is more out of curiosity? Can Stonewall Jackson form a army when he gets 3 stars? If so what is the army name?

I have divions out west south of St Louis that are sick with their health low (half their icon is red when you look highlight the division and look at the popup in the lower right hand corner) and has been for several turns, they are divisons in the "Army of the west" main stack. what can I do to he...

I am trying to figure out what I am doing wrong as to why I can't get any generals to promote to 2 star so I can make corps. It is spring of 1863 (I am playing confederacy) and only one general has been promotable. I desperately need more 2 star generals to create corps. Could it be the way I organi...

In reading the manual it says that in the army stack ( the one with the star on the tab) you don't place massive amounts of troops because it is not used as a combat stack? It says the corps are the attack stacks? Is this correct, have I been playing the wrong way? For example is this saying I would...

I was confederacy with 3 large stacks in full assault mode (red) in DC region and for whatever reason the AI had most its force up north fighting my other army. When I put my curser over DC it had very little troops in it. I had attacked once and had confederate victory (not sure why it didnt fall c...

I have a question about blocking re-enforcements. I had Washington DC surrounded and about to fall. Then a ship came up the river with thousands of re-enforcements. First question is it possible to block enemy passage of the river up to the harbor of DC, and if so how do I do this, what ships are ne...

What stat can you check to see when a general is able to be prompted to two stars? I can't figure it out and keep checking all my one star generals and they never seem to be able to be promoted? How do I check this?

Is it not possible to assault Fort Monroe (Late May 1862) I get a message that says "Cannot reach the destination from here" when trying to move from James City, VA to the section that the fort is on.

Ok thanks, just curious where do you in game view the events like the screenshot that Nico165 posted? Also as to General Beauregard at the beginning of the campaign, is it advised to leave him with a command penalty until divisions are available? or do you try and move forces out from under his cont...

I have started a new "Coming Fury Campaign" I learned about creating corps and divisions to get rid of command penalty's in the tutorials. So when the campaign starts (on the first turn) I notice General Beauregard has a penalty of 27 (18). So based of the tutorial I thought i would try and create c...

I am new to the game, I have played through the tutorials and now I am trying the scenarios but I lose every time. I even tried lowering the AI in the settings and still lose. I am getting frustrated and I am concerned this game isnt for me. Has anyone recorded a scenario for like a how to video? I ...
