Organizing the Resistance

Birth of America 2: Wars in America is the much expanded reprise of veteran developer AGEOD’s acclaimed first release, which allows players to command either side of the conflicts before, during and after the American War for Independence between 1636 and 1815. Apart from the engaging turn-based strategy play that has been expanded and vastly improved over the original, Birth of America 2: Wars in America includes major new features like an improved and expanded map including the Mississippi River, new European off-map boxes (France, Great Britain, Spain, Holland) and more.

Organizing the Resistance

Post by KG Erwin »

In the long Revolutionary campaign, the one problem I'm having is in organizing regional armies. The US has regiments popping up hither and thither, and concentrating them into effective commands is a real problem, especially if infiltrating British units stand in the way. In the New England states it's not a problem, as Washington arrives and the Continental Army is formed. In the Central/Southern colonies, unifying command is a huge issue. I have yet to figure out a solution to this problem. The only option I can come up with is detaching commanders from Washington's army and sending them south.

I am taking the long path to the campaign the same way i did with AACW. 6 months playing all scenarios both sides before my first attempt. I think the british may have similar issues with assembling big forces away from the reinforcement centers. What i have noticed though is that british have a far superior quality.

Hence, while sending down your troops, employing training officers in this transfer is an absolute must.

Tbh theres no easy way to organise armys, i tend to send a few leaders alone galloping through the lands from the northern main front to lead resistance bands against the british.
Also i generally pick a large town now and then to use as a base of operations, which also helps.
