Does anyone know how to add or remove Gunboats to an OOB file? Everytime I add or remove a unit is says the item is a dupliate unit and places it on the shore when I attempt to use the editor (in a limber formation). I can select the unit later in the scenario (Union or Conf.) but it says the unit cannot be unlimbered(?). Has anyone had any success with these unit in a scenario?

BRD!

I've never attempted gunboats and don't use the ACW set as much as the Napoleonic, so this is just a guess....

I think BG Shiloh is the only place you see gunboats in the ACW set so I suspect the other BG engines don't really recognize that type.

If you haven't done so already, try modifying your OOB to include a gunboat exactly as its done in BG Shiloh and use the BG Shiloh exe and PDT.
