Gents, I'm having the devil's own time trying to get the 1.15 patch downloaded. After downloading the patch, extracting with 7zip always (after multiple attempts from multiple locations) gives me a corrupt file message, and using XP's built in tool, I get asked for a password. Any ideas? Edit - The ...

Punched copies of "Terrible Swift Sword" go for about $40-50 on Ebay, and depending on the condition and title, the others should go for a like amount.

AGEODs ACW is, of course, da bomb :coeurs: when it comes to PC ACW games...and one of the reasons I love it is that it looks and plays much like a boardgame! I just recieved Renaud Verlaque's "The Price of Freedom", a strategic level ACW boardgame. It covers the whole war in eight turns(!) and is su...

The game seems stable with (vers 1.09 beta 4). I am disturbed, however, that with all this constant improvement to the game I still suck as a commander, however.

This sort of continued support is mind boggling. I'm used to a patch or two, then "live with it", and the only thing the company forum is really used for is an echo chamber.

AGEOD is to gaming as a Filet Mignon is to a Big Mac.

Well done!

I can't believe we have three pages and no mention of Buster Keaton in "The General".

bloodybucket

Thanks, and Merry Christmas...AGEOD goes above and beyond again!

AGEOD Rocks. Thanks to those wonderful modders and those skilled players who have spotted the bugs to squash.

bloodybucket

I'm all about choices: I love seeing the mods included, but I can see wanting a "clean" patch with just bug fixes.

I'm all for a peacefull restoration of the forum union!

bloodybucket

Foote and McPhearson are both excellent, Pollard is a great work to get Southern perspective, but don't forget Bruce Catton.

bloodybucket

Thanks! When time permits I'll give this a spin.

Looks good.

Try " Age of Napoleon ", Renaud Verlaque's strategic level Napoleonic game. The components are sheer eye candy, and the game plays quickly enough where it is a realistic prospect for a couple of gamers with a weekend open. The main claim against AoN is that the game can swing on the luck of the draw...

Make a simple plan based on Situation Mission Execution Administration/Logistics Command/Signals It's the old USMC five paragraph order, of course, but you can really use it when facing any wargame situation. Your Union campaign order might run: Situation - Enemy forces have superior leadership, inf...

"To retain respect for sausages and laws, one must not watch them in the making." Bismarck may or may not have said that, but to some extent I'd include AACW patches with the legal edicts and wurst. Simovitch touched on this before. If all the forum chatter from the volunteer modders/patch helpers w...

Web Grognards now has a link to the AACW Wiki.

I think the Wiki is a great tool for someone who has tried the demo but is still too intimidated by the depth of the game to buy it, besides being a great resource for owners of AACW.

I found the game to be daunting at first, and still have to fight the urge to "rush" through a turn...very much so when I'm tired! I've yet to go PBEM, and I may never do so, but I found that sticking with it after a few false starts led to the various systems "clicking" after awhile. I think that h...

I'm not a casual gamer, more of a serious gamer that's not too bright, and I recommend it to anyone who will listen, and some that won't. I'm not meticulous, but I still muddle through AACW. I think that anyone who can handle Panzer General or Gary Grigsby's World at War should be OK duffing along (...

I'd want something along the lines of a statistical summary with some music, and maybe a flag graphic...and no bearded ladies!

bloodybucket

It was an easy review to write, the game speaks for itself.

bloodybucket

Superb work. Has there been any talk of making this standard via an Ageod patch?

bloodybucket

Not what I had in mind, although it certainly wouldn't be the usual message...

At last, I've managed a win as the Rebs (early 1864, NM went over 175) and after viewing the victory message, it struck me as not fitting the epic nature of the AACW campaign game. I know a lot of grogs sneer :p apy: at endgame "rewards", and I'm not asking for a CGI cut scene of the Army of Norther...

Hollywood is never going to make a movie "correct" enough for history grogs.

You just have to live with the "artistic License".

The wiki should be linked at Web Grognards...mind if I submit it?

I'm finishing my first game against the Union AI, and I've been patching as I go along. I took Washington early on, held on to MO, and was pretty much in charge of KY until late 1863. The Yankees skedaddled the government to NY, and if I was a smart rebel I would have dug in and traded my newly acqu...

The filter feature is much appreciated. Thanks to the squirrel with the big teeth.

bloodybucket

Thank you very much. It's a great resource.

bloodybucket

This sort of response is one of the many things that make this game great.

Thanks for the superlative support.
