Forgive my ignorance but how do I actually post the saved game files?

All reasons to examine the saved game files. His post above leaves very little to go on. Instead of asking a "zillion" questions, I'd rather just examine the saved game files and determine if his issue is one of the above or a true bug, i.e. possibly an end of game issue, etc. Odds are it's somethi...

1864 campaign

Has anybody tried the 1864 campaign as the CSA?? Thought I'd give it a go and see if I could prolong the war beyond April 1865; so I re-organised the corps/divisions, set up one or two new supply depots etc etc. Well, I stopped any direct attack towards Atlanta, re-captured Norfolk and defeated an a...

Inflation and Loyalty

These are a couple of areas' to which I either take too much notice or no notice whatsoever. Obviously you cannot raise the money needed to finance the war without stoking inflation to some extent. However I am always reluctant to send inflation soaring to high and often refrain from raising new mon...

Raising Large armies

I've just watched an episode of the acclaimed Civil War documentary which often gets shown on Discovery or History Channel - playing this game has sparked an interest to know a lot more about it. This episode dealt with late 1861 up to the end of Shiloh. It covered Gen McLelland's 'peninsular' campa...

In my opinion, a landing in Boston must be followed as soon as possible by an assault over the two important depots of the North, Albany by the expeditionary force and Plattsburg by the army of Canada under Sir Doyle. It allows to secure the british supply lines and make a real campaign in the Nort...

This event still evades me as I've now played the game for some time. I envy your position. Those 80,000 extra troops will make the game a LOT of fun for you I think. I will certainly take advantage of it. I've saved the game at Early August 1862 and every now and then will reload it and try a diff...

I have just acheived FI for the first time (July 62). I'm thinking of landing the BEF at New Orleans or Mobile and moving them into Tennessee. Currently the CSA are holding Paducah, Fort Donelson, Nashville, Bowling Green and Louisville but are out-numbered and spreadout and generally having a hard ...

British intervention

How do you actually achieve a Foriegn intervention? I've played as the CSA on several occasions but the Foreign Intervention points on the Objectives page never seems to get above 40 and I am unable to move any foreign forces. As an Englishman I would like to get the BEF involved. Any advice is welc...

This game..

Hi, I'm a first-time poster from England and bought this game a several months ago. I knew very little about the Civil War but have now become quite hooked. I've played this game several times as both CSA and Union (against AI). The biggest frustration is that the game seems to end due to attaining ...
