RE: Gave the game a try

<t> Greetings Gentlemen,<br/>
<br/>
I too am one of those that set aside FoF at first and then returned to the game with pleasure many months later.<br/>
<br/>
Frankly, the graphics were initially (and still are) garish and repugnant to me. The game presented itself visually as far too ...

I've just spent the last little while perusing the info available on this new American Civil War game, AACW.<br/>

To be honest, I feel sad. No, in fact I feel downright gloomy. I struggle to control myself, but I can feel the power of my outburst ready to ...

RE: Do you play detailed battles?

<t> Gentlemen,<br/>
<br/>
I have to confess I also don't do detailed combat in FOF, for the simple reason that's not why I bought the game.<br/>

As I'm sure everyone recognizes, to have a strategic-level American Civil War game is outstanding. The fact that you have even attempted to do ...

I was SO distressed to get so far along in this thread, only to learn it had SO LITTLE to do with a 1.8 patch for WiTP.<br/>

So, have a bit of compassion for us wannabe WiTPers. Is a new 1.8 patch out now, and is there some opinion as to how it's working ...

By all means continue the AAR. I know very little about the strategies or mechanics of WiTP, so I wouldn't be much help to you there, but this AAR is certainly one that I check for updates on a consistent basis.<br/>

From what I've seen, stock AA is truly 'anemic'. I'm hoping the game's developers are taking this issue into consideration for the next upgrade, at the ...
