What Am I Doing Wrong?

<t> ok, it's summer '43' and I've cleared the RR to Leningrad. It's time to start taking the Finns out of the war. I transferred a Mech Corp from STAVKA to Leningrad by rail. Their initial readiness was 99%.<br/>
The next week,, just as I'm ready to punch across the river, I find the readiness at ...

RE: New Pacific War Update Message Board

This is very welcome news! I was afraid the thread, and the game, was dying out. See you on the new forum!

Escort Carriers?

<t> I've played this game for years and have finally realized that I've never used the escort carrier function. It's listed as "Escort Carrier*". I went through the manual and couldn't find anything about it.<br/>
(I probably overlooked it) I'm involved in a new game as allies and in January of '43 ...

RE: Sacrilege!!

poopyhead - Thanks for the input. Based what you, and others, have said I have ordered Civil War II. When I get up to speed with it, maybe we can play a game.

Slightly Large Problem

<t> OK, I downloaded pacificwarv3-2 to my laptop along with DOSbox 0.74. OK, so far so good. I fired everything up and started a game with myself as Japanese.<br/>
worked fine in the DOSbox window but when I hit ALT-Enter to go full screen, everything simply stopped and the mouse doesn't work.<br ...

RE: Need some advice

<t> All of you have certainly given me a great deal to think about. Thus far I've eliminated a couple games because it seems they're individual actions - not the whole war.<br/>

I was about sold on GG's War Between the States but it appears that the last AAR was in 2010. I'd like something a ...

RE: Need some advice

<t> Well, I certainly appreciate the comments. All of you have given me a great deal to consider. I think I shall spend this afternoon poking around some of the games suggested. I'll probably be back with a million questions, but I'm willing to lay out the fifty or so bucks to get what I want. <br ...

RE: Need some advice

<t> I took a look at Scourge of War but it sounds like simply a collection of individual actions -<br/>
not the entire war, and I see no mention of Grant's Mississippi campaign, Forts Henry and Donelson, the siege of Vicksburg,<br/>
Vicksburg or Grant's and Sherman's campaign eastward to Atlanta ...

RE: What Book Are You Reading at the moment?

Currently on the 4th volume of "War For The Union" by Allen Nevins. A little light on the military side but containing voluminous and thoroughly researched information on the economic and political side.

Need some advice

<t> Hi everybody - <br/>
<br/>
After years of studying WW2, I think I've about worn it out. I recently watched the movie "Gettysburg" and my wife recently gave me a history of the Civil War. Well, I've developed an interest in it and I'm thinking of buying a Civil War game, but there are so many I ...

Sacrilege!!

<t> OK, I've played this game for years and have gotten hours of enjoyment, frustration and fun out of it. But, quite frankly, I'm a little tired of WW 2. I thought I'd broaden my horizons a bit and check out the Civil War. I've been browsing through the lists of CW games and want to know if anybody ...

RE: OK, It's not like riding a bike!

Thanks you, Capt. I guess I panicked a little. BTW, I used to be just plain old Koniev but have switched internet providers and re-registering was easiest way to get back on. I'm up and running now.

OK, It's not like riding a bike!

I'm properly embarrassed. After several months of being away, I've forgotten how to play and am trying to get back into it. Would somebody please tell me how to access the UNIT menu?

OK, I'm thoroughly chagrined. That worked. Now I have another problem - I've forgotten how to do anything.

Window won't resize

<t> Hi everybody - <br/>
<br/>
After several months, I've been bitten again but ran into a problem. I fired up Dosbox and got Pacwar running but for some reason I can't resize the window and I can't maximize either. I'm stuck in the small window that dosbox fires up in. Any body got any ...
