Ooohhh...yeah. That would have been really cool.

What about the special siege graphic that was brought up previously? where it that exactly?

Something that allot dont relize, you can determind what type of siege you want.<br/>
If you click on the special siege graphic in the province, you get a pull down on the right bottom of the screen, in there you can select options like ...

Yeah that was my view as well. I just turn it on each turn, but I was worried that it might affect my diplomatic numbers or something by making me look too brutal.

Just wondering if there is any disadvantage to having your armies plunder enemy territory by default?

Any suggestions on how to better ones chances of taking them? Or is the extreme difficulty something that might be addressed in a future patch?

<t> Yes, I finally figured that out. Thank you! [:)] However, it still doesn't make any sense. Just because there is a fort in a region that shouldn't mean that you can't pass through it. Unless the fort is the size of the Death Star I don't see the reasoning for rules like this. It's one thing to ...

<t> I'm currently seiging a fort. After the first turn it says that the defenses decreased from 100 to 80. Then after the second turn it says that defenses have been reduced from 85 to 81. How can the defenses go up if the fort is unable to resupply? Is this just soldiers in the fort scrounging up ...

How about implementing a feature that tells you the outcome of a battle immediately after you choose "instant battle" instead of having to wait until the whole turn is over and sorting through the end report?

Ah,ok. That seems to be the problem then! Thanks for the help!

Ok, just got the game, but I must say it is one of the most frustrating games I have ever seen to try and learn. The 275 page pdf manual seems to cover everything except - how to play it. It's a detailed manual on 'what everything does' but ...

<t> I really do enjoy this game, given that I am still struggling to figure most of it out, but I am still confounded on a few points. Why can I not place Confederate forces in Annapolis? I am playing with basic rules. My forces just get moved back out. With as much problems as I've had trying to ...

Uuhhhmmmm....no. What's the difference between river provinces and normal provinces? Help a newbie out! [&o]

I moved the CSA 10t Division into Rappahanock since the Union has Ft. Monroe there. My question is, how do I assault or attempt to take the fort? I can't figure out how to issue such commands through the interface. Thanks!

Actually, I have a whole thread about how I am unable to have an Army group of mine enter Annapolis. No matter how many times I move it it reverts back to its previous position. I can move small units in but not the Dept of Virginia group.

<t> How about allowing Armies to assault forts or at least enter the same provinces of forts. It's a bit strange when your army can't even enter a province because there is a fort there. I can't imagine not being able to enter Annapolis just because it has some forts inside it! Entering a territory ...

Actually yes, there are three forts in the province. But shouldn't you be given the option of at least attempting to storm the forts? Forever excluding me from an entire province seems very limiting. It essentially makes certain areas of the map impossible to ever enter!

Will do. Thanks for your help so far!

I wish that was it but it's not. I'm able to move other units but some will just not budge. It's like Annapolis has a force field around it keeping out Confederates!
