Any luck in St. Louis MajorMandrake?

veji1: Are you saying that it "should" work like that, or that you think it does work like that? So what loyalty ranges does the trait effect? 0 to 10% would make it pretty useless, because how often does that come up? Hopefully it works on 0 to 50% loyalties, that would be way more applicable! Nice...

If 200 CP is his max force replaced and rested, then St. Louis is totally yours in a few turns. Like Ol’ Choctaw said, gather up enough extra power from wherever you can to get over 700 (3x is a good rule of thumb, but out there you probably have a lot of light troops and you need to be sure)....

Very interesting! I did not realize that the combat penalty was based on MC, I thought it was based on geography alone. Thank you!

Ooops, I meant "Good Population Administrator." It is the buffed version of the occupier trait (based on the in-game description).

When crossing a river by rail does a unit entering combat (say attacking New Albany from Louisville) still pay the combat penalty for crossing the river? Assuming you have enough MC in the target region to use the railnet.

That is exactly how I have attempted to use them (actually I am a CSA player, so I am using Hindeman, who I believe has the corresponding ability) but I never saw verifiable increases. This could have been due to other loyalty shifts masking the effects...? OTOH I am pretty sure I have seen Civilian...

The ability to re-open the last selected unit or better yet a back button that lets me skip the unit window backwards through several recently selected units would save me a ton of clicking and scrolling time. It would only need to remember a string of four or five units, you would rarely need to go...

Forts are force multipliers for smallish garrisons but as noted above are vulnerable to siege. Also I think there is a 25 element limit before you face overcrowding penalties and a combat malus (someone please confirm). I find them very useful in upstate new York for their supply capacity and becaus...
