Setup Question

<t> I am beginning my first game. I am playing Austria. I have placed several corps on the map, assigned all factors to garrison, corps, or cavalry. All three leaders have been assigned to unit stacks. Placed my fleet and loaded all available fators and placed all 7 depots on the map in strategic ...

Beginner Questions

<t> I have a couple of beginner questions:<br/>
<br/>
1) It seems to be possible to add factors to supply units. Why would you want to do this? What purpose do these factors serve if they are in the supply unit?<br/>
<br/>
2) What is the difference between cities with their names in "Red" and ...

Basic Blockade and Raider Questions

<t> I am playing my first game as CSA (I have already completed two as the Yanks) and I have a few naval questions from the CSA perspective:<br/>
<br/>
1) How does the CSA "run" the blockade versus trying to actually sink blockading ships and reduce its impact on the CSA economy? Is "running the ...

Blockade Question

<t> After many hours of play in my first campaign, I still do not fully understand blockading.<br/>
<br/>
For inland ports do you blockade the zone where the rivers or estuaries exit to the sea (which seems to make sense) or do you need to put the units in the areas listed in the tool tip when you ...

RE: Commander Loss Question?

<t> I probably did miss the message in the log. I was looking for commander deaths. <br/>
<br/>
I think automatic removal of generals (to follow history) should be an option not hard coded every game. I was playing with moderately randomized generals and Patterson was 4 2 2 .. not too shabby ...

Commander Loss Question?

<t> I am playing my first long campaign (1861). <br/>
<br/>
I engaged in a very large battle near Alexandria VA (initiated by CSA) in July 1861. I won the battle, but was unable to find a corps commander (Patterson) after the battle. It was confusing for a bit, but I eventually found his divisions ...

Naval Units and Blockade Questions?

<t> I am playing my first campaign game (starting 1861). I have some questions about naval vessels and blockades.<br/>
<br/>
1) Is it possible to separate individual ships from squadrons? If yes, how is this done?<br/>
<br/>
2) I attempted to blockade Charleston. The tooltip says that 6 units ...

Transport Questions?

<t> I have just starting playing game and have some questions about transport?<br/>
<br/>
1) In the early part of the game is it important to invest in expanding transport capacity (beyond keeping up with the wear and tear factors) or can this wait until more need is seen later? How fast does the ...
