April 1861 Campaign Reinforcements

[PhilThib]

Here are the PDF documents with a synthesis of the USA and CSA reinforcements showing up in the initial months of the April 61 campaign. This should help you a bit with your purchase strategy.

Have fun

Great!
Thanks to you, sir !!
What does it mean the green color on Boham and Bee ??

This is just an old typo convention for me to distinguish the historical generals with portraits in the DB (in white) from those generic leaders without portraits (yet) in green

Largish bug:

In the latest verstion, those AotP Divisions don't seem to be keeping their brigade organizations when they are placed. As such, when you split them, all you get is all the individual elements of the unit making a mess of things.

[McNaughton]

I can second the problem about the new union Divisions, plus, the Army of Northern Virginia will no longer split (along with any brigade). This is all a fresh restart with 1.02.

[Pocus]

Here is one of these divisions, july 61 setup. Split correctly it seems:

[ussdefiant]

They most definitity do not split correctly when they appear by event in the April setup

[Snoob]

Agreed. Then again, when they appear they are locked in place (unlike Pocus' screen). Perhaps this is affecting them?

[Pocus]

if you want to ease my work (ie ease how I repair my mess ), send me a saved game with the division that don't split correctly (before it splits), this will hasten debugging.

thanks.

[Snoob]

Pocus,

The save I sent you (where the Northeastern army won't show the generals' portraits on top of either the army or the divisions) is such an example.

The divisions won't split up using the button. Some of them do split up using ctrl+D (was mucking about with the keys when I discovered this) and they can be reformed either leaderless or, if the 61' generals are present in Alexandria (in the save I think you'll find one there), they can take command (as they are unlocked).

I think it has to do with the divisions being locked for the time being, but I'm not at all sure.

I'm playing the '61 campaign as the CSA. I noticed that in the list for the CSA posted in this thread there are some free replacemets until early september but i usually receive only the ones scheduled for early may and none thereafter. Am i looking at it in the wrong way? Thanks a lot.

[PhilThib]

There are no reasons you should not receive all of them. Check again in your next game and let me know if it happens again...

[hkbhsi]

It happens all the time. I've restarted many games to check and it is always the same. I receive all the scheduled reinforcements but only the first free replacement point. I am also sure that they are not arriving because if i don't buy extra replacemets point no unit on the map receive additional troops and there is no message in the log. Thanks for the quick reply.

[PhilThib]

OK, we'll investigate this then. For next patch most likely. Thanks
