A bug or am I just good?
Hopefully the attachment works - never done one here before. Playing as CSA, doing pretty well, but did not see any battle reports to indicate this.

Click on the paper clip symbol and pay heed to the limitation on file size and resolution limits also. JPG works well for me.
What exactly is causing you problems with the attachment? What steps have you done?

I had something close to 60,000 POW as USA in Sept 1861.

Where can you see the number of POWs you've taken?

F9 key under National Morale.
What is odd about this is while I have won some decent size battles, I did not notice reports of anywhere near this many POWS in the battle report screens. Although I could have missed it, this still seems extremely high given the forces mustered at this time.

You have a message report of number of POW gained in the list of messages , bottom panel ( the "mail box" ), along with rifle or other goodies seized.
You can also use filter for combat messages , see icons at left.
BTW, seems 87.000 is heavy for only 6 turns of play...

an excess zero added, the number that should be read in this case is 8700, not 87000. You are gaining pow using the conscript value of defeated troops, and one conscript point is 100 men, not 1000. We will correct that very soon. Consider this as a display error.
