Re: Infantry Weapons on French Brigades in Eagle and the Empire Scenario

Thanks! I really like the scenario BTW. I'm playing it with a human opponent just now and it's an interesting situation to be fighting in Mexico and trying to fend off the French.

Infantry Weapons on French Brigades in Eagle and the Empire Scenario

Hello,

I'm the Union player in the midst of The Eagle and the Empire 1863 alternative Civil War history scenario. I see that the French infantry brigades start with an infantry weapons level of 4. But, Union and Confederate Infantry brigades in other games I've played are limited to a maximum of 2 ...

Looking for newer player B&G 1861

I'd like to try the CSA but can also do the Union. I've played a number of Strategic Command games so I'm familiar with the system but only one ACW. DM me if you're interested.

Please note, if you're going to quit in the summer of 1862 when you're actually ahead (don't ask) or if you get mad when I ...

Jacksonville gambit

Jacksonville starts the game empty and I'm not sure the CSA can get a unit down there before the union sticks a brigade on an amphib and sails in and occupies the port in the summer of 1861. Basically, the union gets to take advantage of "intel" that was not available in the real war and take away a ...

Union Naval Transports

Playing PBEM and it's February 1862. I have been unable to load units onto transports in DC and Wilmington for the past two turns. I'm given the option of loading the units onto amphib transports but not regular ocean transport. The ports are not frozen and I don't have any other units on naval ...

Re: Looking for beginner, vanilla Union side

I was just going to come on here and look for a beginner match. I'm not clear from your email, do you want me to be the union or you? I'm fine either way.

You can respond on here or DM me.

Re: The World at War ELO Tournament

[ELO Ended] Allies win.

EarlyDoors (Axis) v. JohnB (Allies)

Allies win with the Axis tipping the king in Oct. 1945. Japan had surrendered in August 45 with the A bombs and Germany was just about to go under leaving the Duce to frantically claim that it was all a big mistake. A very good game with ...

Unable to connect to server

Hello,

I just tried to connect to the PBEM server and it told me I needed to upgrade to the latest version. I double checked for updates and I have the latest but it still gives me the "client mismatch" message.

Re: Burma Road event

Bill, thanks for the explanation. I wonder if it's firing late in my games because Burma is neutral (and thus not Allied) until Japan has declared war?

Elessar, I've seen that one after the burma road has closed. China needs every MMP!

No soviet first winter?

Is there a chance that the Soviet First Winter event does not fire? I'm in the middle of a game with EarlyDoors. He invaded Russia in August 1941. It's now March 1942 and no Soviet Winter event fired. Is there some trigger that needs to happen or is there some small chance that there is no first ...

Burma Road event

I'm curious as to why the Burma Road event does not fire until Japan is at war with the west. Historically, it put supplies in to China from the start of the war (Japan was so irked by the amount of supplies flowing along the road that it forced its closure for 3 months in 1940 by threatening war ...

Re: CV Strike Mechanics

I clearly don't understand this game. In a recent one, I launched 21 bomber strikes from CV/CVLs over the course of two turns against a Japanese special forces in Pearl in 1943. CVs at full supply, IJN unit no fort, supply level 4, no AA, no fighter opposition. Japanese unit had also endured 4 ...
