PhilThib:

Bravo. Your company's philosophy is one reason why I have purchased BOA, WIA, NC, ACW, Montjoie and WWI. And I will continue to purchase your products.

That said, crack the whip and get that patch out. I had my first CTD tonight.

Keep up the good work.

Johnnie

Yes Tamas. I was concentrating on the Western Front to learn the mechanics and I was ignoring the Austrians. They had mandatory attacks.
Found it out right before I read your post.

Thanks.

Johnnie

On "mandatory attacks" the only red flags I see are over French Units and I am playing as the Germans ?? I'm lost here. Help. August 1914 second move and I can't finish the turn.

Johnnie

No Freezes ever for me. No long waits either. But I do get some CTDs and I get an error every time I exit the game.

Johnnie

I am fooling around with the 1914 Campaign. When I try to get my second turn movement going I can't because I have not apparently finished "mandatory" attacks or activations. How do I check the requirements for the Von Schlieffen plan from inside the game ?? Or do I need to write down the requiremen...

Jutland Scenario: I can't get Jellicoe out of Scapa Flow. Message says I can't travel accross land ??

Johnnie

Minor problems continued:

On end of scenario you get a victory or defeat screen with points; but you can't review the tally or the map as it's gone.

I'm getting an error message when exiting the game.

Johnnie

Matrix says that their release scheduled today comes with a 52 page manual. The AGEOD version came with a 23 page manual. Is this a more elaborate manual and, if so, can we get it ?? A more detailed manual would be very helpful. Frankly, I don't want to plow through the boardgame rules, just to get ...

Johnnie

Just tried the Grand Campaign 1914 first turn on default settings (security =3) I think. Waited at most under 3 minutes for any one phase. On the Palestine scenario, I have almost no waiting time.

I don't minimize the problems you guys are having; but they apparently depend on the system.

Johnnie

tagwyn: If you mean the game itself, so far it works fine for me. I have, however, only tried the tutorials and the Palestine scenarios. As to the music playing at certain times, it's the same as my other AGEOD games. I like the music and usually combine it with other period music in a playlist and ...

Johnnie

So far so very good, though there appears to be a bit of a learning curve. I think this game will be a classic. One thing I appreciate immensely is the music. Over three hours of good period stuff. Much more than the usual English, German & French. The Italian selections are especially nice. Develop...

Johnnie

Tamas: Playing Palestine scenario. Big battle in south which I will win. Have units in reserve, choose breakthru areas Haifa and another, get the blinking arrows win the battles but there is no breakthru. Same happens in north, although there I choose only one breadthru area. Do I have to do somethi...

Johnnie

Tamas:

How about a brief "how to" with respect to battles. What does placement in deployment and front line actually do ?? How does breakthrough work ?? The present manual is not very helpful.

Johnnie

Thanks guys.

Johnnie

Downloaded and applied activation patch. When I launch game its says my serial no. is invalid. It didn't apply serial no. yet. How do I do so ??

Thanks.

Johnnie

Dear dbeves:

You have made your point, such that it is. Why don't you do the all of us a favor and get onto something else. Let's see. Do you think Von Kluck turned left too soon ??

Johnnie

You gentlemen certainly speak the truth. Even if Amazon were to sell this game at a discount (and I would bet there is a mistake or inaccuracy involved here) how would that be wrong of AGEOD. NWS routinely sells HPS games at a discount on the publication date. With AGEOD especially, I like to deal w...

Johnnie

FLS:

I do not know. In the manual I just see that for a campaign you pick a "side" Central Powers or Entente. Perhaps someone else knows ??

Johnnie

If you are playing against the AI in the campaign game, don't you have to choose a "camp" (Entente or Central Powers) rather than a nation. ??

Johnnie

Dear tagwyn:

I trust that you are joking and that your demise is not imminent. But if you do, indeed, have only a short time to live, why do you need a disc or a box ?? Do you plan to take the game with you ??

Me; I don't need no stinking boxes.

Johnnie

On the day I pre-ordered I also had trouble with Internet Explorer and had to use Mozilla. You gentlemen at Ageod should check into this as it could cost you sales.

I am looking forward to Armistice Day.

Johnnie

Fred Anderson is ok, but Crucible of War can be DRY. He also covers a period after the war itself. Some of the discussions of Indian politics in Crucible of War are so detailed, and boring, that I found myself begging for mercy. For a good old fashioned narrative history get a copy of Montcalm and W...

Johnnie

Try it with what you have. "Requirements" are not written in stone, I have found. If you need to upgrade, one GIG of RAM is pretty cheap. Google "RAM" and get some quotes.

Johnnie

Just want to make sure I have the entire download. There if a very small exe. file and a 776 MB second file. Right ??

Johnnie

Pre-ordered and downloaded. It was a two part download. One instantaneous exe. (part 1); and a lengthy 777 MB (part 2). You can not yet play the game; but you can access the pdf. manual.

Johnnie

Bluemx:

I do the same and have play lists for F&I War/Rev. War; Napoleonic; Civil War; WWII; etc. I also love the soundtrack from Barry Lyndon; it spans several periods, F&I through Napoleonic.

Johnnie

Grey Lensman:

Thanks. I got thru right before your post.

Johnnie

I was finally able to get into the forums with a link from another site, but I can't get to the main AGEOD site. I keep getting a screen with a "web mail" log in ?? I have been a customer for years and never had any problems.

Johnnie

If I hit the link, I go back to the previously posted patch. Is this now the new patch. ??

Johnnie

I applied the patch (when it first came out) and then RTG's fix which fixed the crash. Should I just install the new patch (when available) over that. Or should I uninstall and start over from scratch ??

Thanks.
