Clean install, then this patch. I don't see headings. No "total blockade" or "6% war bonds" or even "game options".

"This leader gives a 25% bonus to the recruiting of patriots and volunteers in the region."

OK... so do militia and irregulars get 25% faster replacement or something? What does this mean? I haven't noticed any raiders or anything spontaneously appearing.

It does, but only if the units are separate and if you have leaders from only one faction in the same stack. If you combine them into a division, it's only 4 CPs regardless of nationality. If they're separate, they cost quadruple CPs, but never less than 4 each. The leader quality in question elimin...

I see you're learning the lesson that the Union eventually figured out: frontal attacks on entrenched enemy positions are costly and far from successful.

You're close. Now click the paperclip and select your attachment. It will show up in the post.

You don't need photobucket. You can put attach the pics directly to the posts.

There is an update. Overcautious no longer gives a -4 CP penalty. It gives a -1 CP penalty and reduces the chance of being active when in enemy-controlled regions by a percentage equal to MC (not sure if enemy MC or own MC).

Be careful what you wish for.

Little tip: If you click the paper clip above the text field, you can put the images in the post.

No! It's a conspiracy! One of the leader traits in Vicky 2 is "Vainglorious"!

Add another general?

P.S. Apparently you have an attachment, but I can't see what it is.

Paradox Marketing suit: "Yeah, and since the name change to Pride of Nations was such a good move, we can change the names of the older titles to Napoleon's Many Battles , America when it was Really Young , Lifting up of Prussia and Ageod's Americans Being Naughty " :bonk: Maybe not that last one. ...

AFAIK, in AGE games other than AACW, the only way for elements to reinforce is for them to stay put in a region with their stack fully supplied. Then, you just wait awhile. Basically, the two of you have to declare a truce for a few turns while you recover.

Wow. What a battle!

enf91

Cleburne got it right. Promoted generals lose half their experience. I take it he had 10 experience when he was promoted, so he would now have 5.

enf91

There should be a few generals who have some ability that allows them to lead Indians and U/CSA troops without penalty. The other games (BoA2, NCP, RoP) have similar traits. You noticed that all the Indian units had the trait "this unit is Indian"? Well, that screws up everyone who isn't Stand Watie.

enf91

Maybe... but I've never heard of "Pinky and the Brian".

And yes, that is weird.

I'm gonna go ahead and pre-empt Gray here.
That power number has no actual bearing on the internal calculations of the game. It is a "flavor" number. Die Wuerttemberger sind nicht staerker als jedere andere Maenner.

Immer mehre Bier!

Wow. That battle had huge casualties. Rough estimation says 22% for you and 33% for him. It should leave Daun in dire straits, just waiting for you to finish him off.

enf91

Gray pointed out that this is supposed to be historically accurate. Hence, your units will be extremely short on supply the whole game. And you know what that does. Also, your NM is low, so your units have about 80% cohesion as opposed to the Union's 95%. Frontage can help, but if your units start r...

This should be interesting. Good luck! You'll need it. Look out for bugs; this campaign tends to get very little attention. Seems everyone likes the April 1861 w/KY one.

enf91

You're talking about those units that are auto-raised because of enemy invasion, right? Or something else completely?

enf91

No, no problem. It's just that some moderators/volunteers (of which I am neither) prefer everything to be organized. As baris30 pointed out, this did start out as a bug report/tutorial, but it has developed beyond that into an AAR.

enf91

Oh. I thought they could. Anyway, some brigades, including militia regiments, can merge. If you have a stack of 2 militia regiments in separate units, ctrl-click on them to select both at the same time. Then find the "merge units" button (a red +); it should be in the 2nd section of commands. Click ...

Does over/underfunding research do anything?

enf91

If this is an AAR, it should probably be moved to the AAR subforum. Just to keep things simple.

enf91

I think you can combine your TX Ranger regiments. It should cut down on command costs.

enf91

Good job! Only thing I can think of is to show the results of political actions like the blockade.
Are you using Paint for the battles? If you are, you can just click-drag the corners to crop.
