Played the original BOA when it first came out - have been away from it for a while and recently picked up WIA. I have a couple of questions.
1.It is Jan-Apr 1777 in the 1775 campaign game as the US - my issue is that I have continental units that are down to one strength point and will not recover - the militia and irregular units are fine - I saw a thread on this and the main piece of advice was to make sure they are supplied - I have checked this and the area they are in has plenty of supple (green on the supply filter) - one group is a small army in Philadelphia - big city with a depot and lots of supply - but the continental soldiers are all in red - I am using the 1.06e beta patch and read a post that alluded to a problem with an event called "Paper Money" - should I go back to an earlier patch? - just use 1.06 and not the beta - is there another problem I am not seeing?
2.Leaders - there has been some posts suggesting there is a file with all the leaders and their attributes - if so can someone steer me to this file - I have searched both the War in America directory and the Ageod forum and can't find it - also how can you tell if their special attributes only apply if they are the commander? - I have read through the appendix and it is rather vague on this issue
3.US Navy - I am not sure what I am supposed to do with it - the ships all seem like small warships not merchant ships - is their purpose to raid the shipping boxes? - can they stand up to the British fleet? - also do they need an admiral like land units need generals?
4.Is there a command to burn native villages, settelments and towns? - again I have seen posts allude to this (and the manual talks about a keyboard short cut to burn) but I have not seen this
5.Foreign Intervention -in my game I am accumulating it - it stands right now at 100 - I assume it has something to do with France coming in the US side - is there some number I need to achieve? - is there something I need to do to activate this?
That is enough for now - I am sure I will have other questions
Thanks for any help
