<r> Played my first CoG game as Britain. Utter noob at the whole thing. Followed many of the tips from Ralegh. Good stuff. <br/>

<t> Yup. Trying to play a tcp/ip game with Harbinger but cant seem to connect. Firewalls set to allow or even turned off yields no connections. Dont know about routers - mine didnt come with any documentation. <br/>

Probably something really simple like adding ":5120" to the IP or ...

<r> Since I am still an untested nugget with the game I felt it would be better to play without randomized stats or start dates. A few less things to deal with as I learn the art of command and control. In the future I may randomize those things to add uncertainty and some flavor to the nail biting ...

<r> Please dont lower my Command Rating! [:D]<br/>

I've read the patch changes, I just have read the manual since then, so the wrong info was in my mind at the time. It's all good and no one got killed. <br/>

Some people jump right into the advanced game and find themselves frustrated and overwhelmed, so I like your attitude. If you don't <I><s>[i]</s>mind<e>[/i]</e></I> being frustrated and overwhelmed at first, that's a perfectly fine ...

<t> Dragging this thread from the back of the pack because its always nice to know where folks are from. <br/>

I live in Independence, Missouri, home of Harry S. Truman. There is a small bit of Civil War history round these parts - a few small battles took place around here. Westport ...

<r> I too, am struggling to learn this game. Just too many choices! And the manual! Egads...a very tough read. I've read through it twice now and have a better understanding of things, but putting them into practice is a whole different banana. <br/>

Also struggling a little bit with ...

<r> A little idea about "adjusting" the costs of Commanders. Since this appears to be non-moddable, perhaps the solution lies in modifying the PP values of cities and resources instead. Perhaps even adding new cities to provide more PP. In effect, just give yourself more cash and things become ...
