Oops... wrong thread. Sorry.

I'm not much of a Discord guy. Besides from my experience with Discord, it doesn't seem to me to be a very great venue for individuals to ask questions. It is an excellent place for folks to chat to each other, which is probably a great way for the Devs to interact amongst themselves. I just drop by Grog-Heads forum where folks seem to be pretty well updated daily on what is going on with the game.

What troubles me is the complete absence of any support here on the forums by the development team. I can't for the life of me buy a game without support from the dev team, no matter how badly I would like to play the game. Mind you, I understand that Xsolla may actually be prohibiting dev support here... who knows? And some of these folks are in Ukraine, which must make development a real bitch. Still...

In Age of Sail, to start a new campaign, all you had to do was hit the space bar to get through the intro rapidly. So space, space, space, until you get to a decision you have to make. Have you tried that?

Thanks! It's definitely the game I have been waiting for.

Steam Keys Information – IMPORTANT Unfortunately Steam (Valve) has changed policy and we can no longer request keys in advance and they are no longer guaranteed. Thus these purchases can only be accessed through the Game Labs Launcher. If you want to play Ultimate General American Revolution on Steam, please wait for the Steam release (which could happen in Summer 2024).

So how do you buy the game?

Grim.Reaper stated that the launch date is Tuesday, November 14th. No other details, so who knows where it will be available.

Here is a post by Grim.Reaper on the GrogHeads forums: [quote]The news we have been waiting for! Sort of....although ready for EA release, they are having issues with their release platform:( Hopefully they figure out quickly.... We have good news and bad. I will start with the good part. We made huge progress with the game in October with the help of focus testers. Many of the game's crashes were fixed, the balance improved, a huge amount of game-breaking bugs were fixed, usability of different game mechanics was improved. The game is ready for EA release. The game will include the US campaign from April 1775 till August 1776. The campaign will contain 3 stages - Boston, ft. Ticonderoga and Canada. The content is good for learning the game and providing feedback that will help us improve the game. We will continue to develop further content for the US campaign opening the whole map after EA release. Now a bad part - Unfortunately we have an issue with the release now because the Xsolla platform has problems. We work with the Xsolla team to fix them ASAP.[/quote] pandakraut has released this video today: What I don't understand is why the forums here have been totally abandoned by the Dev Team.

Land Battles: Sea Battles: Headquarters: Fort Assault:

$50 for a game in beta offering only 1 of 2 campaigns. Seems a bit stiff to me. I tend to refrain from buying early releases. Of course, they could give it to me for free and I'd be delighted to make a few videos for the game. 😉

Okay, so as a YouTuber myself, I was wondering is this an unlisted video? The account is by "simonjons1" but it has no videos listed. Youtube search won't find it, but I can embed it to other forums. I wanted to PM you colonel, but the PM feature does not work on Game-Labs forums. Are you part of the Dev team?

Watching closely it appears to have a pretty solid foundation in the features found in Ultimate Admiral: Age of Sail.

Thanks, mate!

You have a link to that?

Thanks for the info mate!

To be quite honest, I have no idea why they created this forum (UG:AR) if they don't have any devs or reps posting here... From what I understand the Devs are Ukrainian and dis doesn't make no sense.

It would clearly place it in a position which is superior to the Total War franchise. A franchise, I must say, that has wasted it's dominate market share in the last decade with the lack of true innovation. The potential of this game could take real time strategy to a new level.

Better to fight them in the woods than in the open, no? 😉

Actually, there is a bridge, and 2 brigades of Reb infantry and an artillery brigade cross there as reinforcements. It is on the far right bottom of the map and a skirmisher unit is deployed there. Immediately move 2 infantry brigades (you will need to run them most of the way) and your cavalry to the area and set up an ambush. If you catch the Rebs moving across the bridge you can wipe them out and this will give you the advantage in winning the battle.

Here is the end screen after the Battle of Washington:

The Siege of Jackson is always a tough battle on Legendary. I outflank the Yankees and destroy his army with a 6 to 1 K/D ratio.

I surround and annihilate the Yanks on the first day at Gettysburg. I was unsure if I should continue the battle to its ultimate conclusion and wipe out the Yankees. I decided on a more conservative approach, fighting the Yanks on Little Round Top and then taking Cemetery Hill to conserve my army. K/D was 3.8 to 1.

The battle that shocked the Nation. 67,137 men lie dead on the battlefield. Eight brigades totally 4,113 men are captured. K/D ration is 3 to 1. I love this battle.

With 13,000 men I was lucky to hold on to Pittsburg Landing. I am building an army to take me to Washington. Many times the outcomes of my battles are not spectacular. It is difficult to see up to this point where I am headed. Perhaps this video will offer an explanation:
