To play both sides, you make a move from either side, say the British, make your move. .Then save. Exit the game, then reenter as the other side, the French, make your move, save and run the turn. Then you can either make a new French move or go to the British side for the new move. Depends upon whi...

Durk

Smooth, my suggestion, try playing both sides and see if this fixes the issue. It is a way of troubleshooting. AI has to follow certain measures which might be outside your expectations.

Durk

Seriously, thank you for sharing. I know your work was a labor of love, and I love the scenarios you have added. As I never play against AI and think nobody should, I appreciate your challenges, but I still think of computer wargames as board games where any AI is simply impossible. One must play bo...

Durk

For Smooth et als - I put patches into a folder in the game. Then when I update, I just need to move that folder to my new computer to have all of the patches. For Chris, it is nice to have open architecture for these games, but as you know very well, it is not a simple this does that, as there are ...

Durk

If you have been adding each of the patches, then there is only one flaw. The Ottoman Empire reform cards do not function. There is a fix for this floating around and some players have it, but the fix has not been widely shared (perhaps someone can share based upon this post). Of course, this is not...

Good observation, but this would be my quibble: While some deployment of Native Americans was purely local; Native American loyalties did not follow the conventional boundaries which state militia would observe. Their tribal and national boundaries were very broad and individual warriors would trave...

Durk

By hard activation I meant the activation which causes leaders to be locked. So yes, the activation settings. Off the top of my head I will be vague as to general's names., except for the third general Howe, the brother of the two we know from the American Revolution, who was killed in the French an...

Durk

Good points. The 1775 and 1776 scenarios were modified so the British and French reinforcements have more flexibility in where they arrive. I think the F&IW scenario may not have had this change as it is really a one time event and the player usually needs the help, and it was not nearly so popu...

Durk

I am never certain if issues like this are computer specific or something I have just never noticed. For me in the FIW if elements are below supply and are in a city or structure, the replacements flow. I have never seen a fully supplied force lose strength unless you are playing with historical att...

Durk

Thanks for this work guys. This is one of my favorite scenarios, so I will review too, assuming you do not mind.

Durk

Great news.

Durk

Your analysis is impressive. I never understand the numbers like several of you do.

Durk

What occurred to me since my last post is that may never need to run a turn. Enter as Union and make a move and save. Then do the same as the Confederacy. Do your U-tube magic screen capture and such. Then make the next moves for both side. The only problem with this notion is if you run out of move...

Welcome to the forum. I do not know anything about steam versions, but if it is the same as non-steam, just run as an administrator.
And welcome to the forum.

Durk

Welcome to the forum. I cannot speak for developers, but they have a very open game system and are supportive of creative use of the game. Also, as a former teacher and State Dept of Ed policy person, I can tell you this educational use of the game is completely appropriate and legal. So it can be u...

Durk

I think you are already in one of the larger ones at The Wargaming Club. If not, there are two largish games going there.

Durk

Ah yes, indeed 16. Well that would be sufficient, but some current PON games top 42 players.

Durk

I actually thought it would be a nice competitor to Victoria 3 as it will remain grounded in realism and will not run even when the player must sleep (that is, it will be turn based, not time based). With FoG: Empires development, PON2 already has the platform. I just do not know who owns PON. The F...

Durk

Oh, something like FoG: Empires. There are games with twenty to thirty players commonly, so I thought a cap a bit higher would be nice.

Durk

I have heard some chat about how nice if would be if PON could be server based. I wonder if there is a channel in which this ideal could be realized?
I do suspect ownership of PON is very odd, so maybe not.
But a game which enabled, say 40 factions. would find a ready audience in my circle of players.

Durk

Interesting. Did not know the 50% chance of success.

Durk

This they can do.
Yes. activation

Durk

Depends a bit upon who is doing it and how it is done. Units also need to be active and in at least blue/orange posture. Any regular cavalry, infantry or partisan unit should do it every time.

Durk

Excellent, yes, you two have solved it, thank you so much.

Durk

Thank you, but no. However these are good fixes for anyone who has not installed them.

Durk

I know at some point a good modder posted a fix for Russia not entering the game in the Grand Campaign and the four player game. I had a clean version which worked, but when I reinstalled on a new computer I lost my version with the fix.

Just a hope and a prayer.

Durk

Use the Open Folder Location command on the game icon, right click to find.
Then run the AGESettngs program.
This will bring up your serial number.
The tab behind will allow you to change how the game is displayed and should give you the control you seek.

Durk

Yes, try to install in a new folder either in Program File - not (x86). Or in your My Document Folder. I often install troubling games there as the permission are easier.

Durk

Well, the obvious, did you install as and administrator and run as an administrator. And, did you update. I assume you are playing one faction against the AI. If so, try this. Enter all three factions and make a move for everyone, saving before you exit each faction. See if this helps. If so, you ca...

Durk

Tick off Historical Attrition. Make sure you have wagons. TYW uses the 'simple supply' system, which means if you mainly have played newer topics, they whole supply situation is different. Supply is not forwarded, it is only local. So you need to do some counting of unit elements. Place this against...
