About your first point, I don't think the AI can be improved to be a real challenge, therefore I agree that a better PBEM system would be good (this is the worst in all pc games that I have played so far). Said that, for what I have read on the forums (in general not only about this game), sadly the...
Army Warfare Rangers in Western Arizona destroyed Pima Villages. Another Rangers unit captured Fort Bascom. In general I will use the rangers units to take ungarrisoned forts to burn them in the Kansas and Indian Territory. McCulloch reached Charleston, in Cairo there are several Union units for 30...

In the FW nothing to say, no one is pushing in this theatre. https://ima...

Do I get the money until he takes the region again? Are the GS still creat...

I'm taking notes in my game (see AAR ) and at the moment the return is 1.5/1.75 WS per Brig, of course they are still untouched. After 10 turns I can give you a better statistic, but as Gray Fox said maybe they are not worth to build because can sink, or even if damaged they will stay out of busines...

Looking at the map there are ton of places where you want to fight and build up your armies but given that the resources are very few I will select only few areas. Far West The goldmines at Sacramento are very tempting but I am not sure if I can take them without a big effort, I prefer to invest lig...
Hi all, after a very long break I am willing to play a CWII game again, even if I am not an expert I will try to share my thoughts and tactics hoping someone can find them helpful. Of course I am open to suggestions and any advices would be more than welcome. https://images2.imgbox.com/6b/42/2EwkTha...
I have to say that I play again, after long break, very very few games, and CWII is one of them. It is not too complex but still very deep, moreover is a WEGO that almost every boardgame cannot handle. Surely the history theme does count too.
