<r> Two clarifications:<br/>
<br/>
1) The option 50 <U><s>[u]</s>forces<e>[/u]</e></U> the winning side to agree to an armistice. Even without the option, either side could propose a mutual peace, and if the other accepts the war should end. We can't find a way to do that.<br/>
<br/>
2) We ...

A variation on a question I just asked in another thread...CAN the French surrender? How is it done? It seems that the Peace phase does not occur. Have others surrendered France, and if so, how?

<t> We have a Russian-declared war with Japan. Russia has taken Manchuria save for around Port Arthur, so has captured 2 resources.<br/>
<br/>
We cannot find any way for Japan to surrender, whether or not Russia would accept, or for finding a Mutual Peace. The Peace phase just gets skipped over ...

<t> Situation in our PBEM game: Spain and Turkey just declared war upon each other over Palestine. Turkey was sieging Tripoli, which is a British Free State. Britain is not allied to either Turkey or Spain, and has given access to neither.<br/>
<br/>
When war broke out, the Turkish warships ...

<t> As I recall, during the land phase there is no button in the commands box to set any orders.&nbsp; However, garrison orders should be able to be set by clicking on the garrison name in the unit box.&nbsp; I don't know of any way to set orders for corps (or fleets), outside of Reinforcement phase ...

<t> I agree, but the game isn't using the board game rules.&nbsp; The manual was quoted above, where apparently only 1D6 is now rolled to determine whether there is a casualty, and on a 6 there is one.&nbsp; The printed manual says 1D12 and a 12 gets a casualty, which would still average 2.5 ...

<t> I wonder whether we are misunderstanding the bug here.&nbsp; From bresh's 30 battle test, I would have expected each side to have had five casualties, on the average, not one.&nbsp; So it seems like the game might be correctly rolling for each side, looking for a six...when it gets a six, it ...

<t> Can anyone address why the zones lit up showing potential moves?&nbsp; Can a besieged corps cut and run on a dark night?&nbsp; Or would I have suddenly found myself in a disastrous breakout fight against the besiegers had I tried to move out?<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
And would that breakout battle ...

<t> I have an Egyptian corps besieged in Damietta by Turks. I had assumed its only move possible was to attack out of the city using the 5:1 table, but clicking on the corps I see that zones light up showing that the corps can slip out the back door and flee. <br/>
<br/>
But then I notice that the ...

<t> Found an odd effect in our brand new PBEM game. I am playing Spain, and planned to DoW Portugal on turn 1. I set the DoW, went about other diplomacies, then pondered if there was anything I had forgotten. I recalled an earlier game where (for a reason I cannot recall) I had decided it was ...

<t> I'm the Spanish player.&nbsp; I moved my .sav files for the game mentioned above to my laptop, where I was playing two other games.&nbsp; I have had no problem at all on the laptop, so it does not seem to be something virus-like, transmitting from one player to the next via game files.&nbsp; I ...

<t> What is the proper way to install 1.05.03?<br/>
<br/>
1) Just download it, and install to a new directory...No, that doesn't work, most folders don't show up, game won't run<br/>
<br/>
2) Download it into a folder with a working copy of 1.04.07 and install, updating 1.04.07 to 1.05.03? That ...

<t> I am in a PBEM game as Austria.&nbsp; The game was started in 1.04.07 and migrated to 1.05, then 1.05.03.&nbsp; (The game is being used to train our recent converts, so we're being very forgiving of the peculiarities we've seen, and just carrying on.)<br/>

My Insurrection Area ...

<t> Marshall, this thread has me pondering...is the cost, manpower and production time for each unit type in a data table that can be modified relatively easily?&nbsp; Would it be possible to make an options choice at game start to change values in that table, and then present that table to the ...

<t> I'm not sure Rome was yet one of the greatest powers during the First Punic War, though obviously it was on its way. But your point of time needed is valid.<br/>
<br/>
Then again, our game can last 11 years. So that's time for the Austrians to build a fleet, lose it, and build another. Or the ...

<t> If a new recruit may join in this educational discussion...<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
First, to add to the classical era evidence: do I recall correctly that, over the course of the First Punic War, the Romans invented having a fleet (copying a Carthaginian trireme that washed ashore after a storm ...
