These are the best computer wargames made today. I'll gladly pay full price for all of them directly to AGEOD. Fantastic work! One day, I hope to not only see that planned 'Great War' game, but the one on the Second World War. And, what if you took the engine, scaled it down, made regions that were ...

Thanks for pointing me to that thread. I swear, I searched before I posted it

The map is stunning in its depiction of attrition - have similar graphs been done for other wars/campaigns?

Wilhammer

I just came across this rather interesting statistical map regarding the forces to and from Russia.

The Written Details

I am not certain our competition was meant to be more than a trial balloon and the working out of bugs at that time. Have you mentioned elsewhere the severe drubbing I gave you in BoA? You should of given up on that one, or the game engine should of. You had two commands left, both nearly wiped out,...

I can start up a pasting attempt in a couple of weeks - put it in your calendar.

I have not touched either of these games in months - too much FTF board gaming.

"fixed: Plundering sea regions for seaweed is not authorized."

You might want to authorize that option for 'Nemo's Campaigns"

Etcha Sketch, on board.

I do own the ADG version of Empire in Arms.

It's never been played.

I have read of complaints re: the rock/scissors/papers chit battle type interplay.

Does it work as a 4-player game? I can get that many together at least.

Wilhammer

Damned near about the ONLY gaming I have been doing for the past three months has been with games based on the American Civil War. Sadly, not AACW - I am kind of waiting for the patches to stabilize a bit more. This past Saturday I just learned how to play GMT's 'For The People'. What an awesome gam...

It would be nice if the modding was managed. By that, a process of community approval. A mod is put out for approval, managed by a central person and thread. It gets votes by X date. If it gets incorporated by Pocus, then it is official. The rest or the 'meantimes' are rated, by a community voting p...

Wilhammer

I would go much, much further... By State, we can know the population and the draft age men in it, with reasonable accuracy. Thus, like unit purchase, manpower in function of each State's real world populations/demographics at the time. The Drafts and Volunteers would be further affected by the loya...

The Confederate Navy 1861-1865

another one - covers the Campaigns to Chickamauga and then the battle, in a strategic then a battlefield view.

Very Nice.

I like the look of this - maybe someone could actually use this look to make a game.

If only Forts and Ports (not the region, just the port) could be bombarded, then your done, Pocus. That's my 2 cents.

Wilhammer

Most Monitors (if not all) were towed great distances - they were horrible at sea, and the crew would of been beat to hell getting there, and the ships would likely not quite of made it under their own power with limited fuel and seaworthiness. My Monitor Fleet move to Cairo was totally unrealistic,...

Wilhammer

Build enough monitors, and them send them so that they share the damage across them running those gauntlets, but be sure to send them to a place they can have a base. I sent an 18+ Monitor fleet from Ft. Monroe to Cairo, Il. Fatigued, hungry, ammo low, and even a monitor sunk, it got there, did some...

UNTIL we are ALL nuts?

The last time I did it, which was several 'mini' patches ago, I had the issue described.

I'll try it again.

Wilhammer

Reminder.

If you break down a division led by an inactive leader you will NOT be able to rebuild it that turn.

Wilhammer

I am very successfully dealing with the Rebs in Virginia using lots of Monitors - the Union runs out of conscripts faster than Cash, so buying Ironclads is about forced on you. All the ports in Va are blockaded, and the Rebs can cross no rivers, thus insuring that Richmond is cut off in two directio...

Why, he be so South, they got them thar seasons backwards...

Wilhammer

I keep a shortcut to my save folder.

I save after I do more than about a dozen mouse actions in the game - paranoid, though I have never got a CTD in this game.

I rar up the .trn file and use the right click context menu to send it to an email recipient.

BTW, in my PBEM, I have taken none of those Objectives, and it is late September 1862. I am 100 VP behind and at about even on National Morale points and distance to each sides NM win point. However, West Central Tennessee has just exploded after taking Ft. Henry / Donnelson. The primary reasons for...

Wilhammer

I too have wondered why Atlanta or even Charleston is not on that list. Esp. Atlanta.

Wilhammer

Yes, they provide shelter, but then so does having a bunch of supply wagons in your hex provide shelter.

What other effect does a a lone calvary unit have in an enemy region - what is their to raid? I do agree that it is perhaps a bit much to think that a very small force, a brigade or less, perhaps a division or less, could do enough damage to disrupt rail for two weeks. I'd go for rules that had NO R...

Wilhammer

Of course, another point in all this is how does one regiment of calvary tear down all the rail in 5 days in Pittsburgh? The level of destruction by Sherman was all together different than a simple cut by a light calvary raid. Perhaps we need at least two types of damage - 'light' and 'heavy'. Light...
