    I've been watching the videos.
    shiloh I have tried 3 times and then aborted
    it's no big deal that I didn't make it.
    My biggest problem what I see in the current game is
    that's the campaign can't go on:
    politics
    economy 0
    Medicine 8
    training 4
    army organization 6
    logistic 1
    reconecence 1

    At Gains Mill, the AI shoots me into peaces
    the most brigades has  3* regiments and shoots me 50 men per volley even in the woods, I kill the only  5 to 20 (skrimisher 1000 men 1*)
     I lose significantly more men and equipment than the AI which I have to buy expensive after the battle.
    veterans are too expensive

    I simply have the feeling that the brigades were much stronger at the moment than in 1.24.
    At 1.24 I could play all the way to Gettysburg with the help of the strong artelerie.
    and the game was balanced and it was also very difficult.
    At the moment I can't even begin to hold against the AI it because most units are shot away very quickly and the morale is lost very fast ( after 2 salvos) routing

    maybe it's the new perks or the AI is much stronger than in 1.24 at the moment.

    I don't think it's tragic that the cannons do 40% less damage, you notice it but it's still OK.
    can it be that the artillery range has been shortened again????
    its strange that i cant defend the attacks...

    It feels like I've lost strength and the Ai has become even stronger.

    Does anyone have similar problems?
    And THX Panda for your great work

     

    It seems like you are putting all your points into the wrong thing.  You need logistics for ammunition. Putting so much into medicine doesn't do much because it doesn't reduce casualties.  You really need politics (increases your recruits and money) and economy (makes weapons cost less). Of course you can't go on if you don't have the money to pay troops and get good weapons.  You want to buy veterans, you need money.


    Honestly, i don't think buying veterans is worth it. For example, if I have a 2000 man brigade that is vet and they go into a fight and lose 700.   I then purchase 600 rookies and 100 veterans, instead of 700 veterans.  Cheaper, doesn't lose all the skill, life goes on.  If your men are armed with muskets and you are being fired on by riflemen, you;'re going to lose.

    You structured your campaign all wrong. You need ammunition, good weapons, and then good tactics. Not medicine and a big army. A big army is useless if they can't shoot, got no bullets, got crappy guns

  2. What do you guys think about AEGODs Civil War II and it's DLC Bloody Road South.

    I've had the game for two years and keep trying to get into it but it's so super deep and micromanagy

  3. Finally, after months of sporadic playing due to school and clinic and whatnot, and due to time off because graduation nears, I finally got finished with by CSA BG campaign.

    Washington was great.  I stormed them with about 95K men and about 350 guns to their 140K men and 750 guns.

    They got smacked.  Forts fell. Washington fell. Everything was swept before me and I was triumphantscreen_2018-03-29_15-50-08.thumb.png.ef4066c990a95251bf3b839646908f61.pngscreen_2018-03-29_15-50-25.thumb.png.8eb7a3d301dd1f128c1025ed3a8c0a6e.png

  4. I am playing Chancellorsville as CSA on BGlevel

     

    I have like 80K men but the game only lets me do two corps, so maybe 60K.  The Union is coming with like 75K

     

    I tried to attack everything the first time and got defeated.  I tried and got a draw the second time but still did too much attacking in the 2nd day.

     

    Now I am thinking of pulling an 1864 and just sit on my ass on the first day, smash Howard on the 2nd day, then just camp out and make them all die and go fro the draw with as few casualties as I can.  Is that a good idea, you thnk?

    No; they are more interested in re-writing history, tearing down the memorials of the past, and creating a present based on an illusion of something that has never existed in order to build a future that scares the hell out of me. 

    When did people start knocking over public libraries and burning books? Where do they do that at?

  6. I would say George Henry Thomas for the Union because he wasn't the most flashy human or the most political human but he had well trained men and he did the damn job

     

    for the Confederates probably Patrick Cleburne because I think he was among the best out of the Western Theater commanders out there

  7. I am starting a new BG Campaign for the confederates.  I was wondering what do you guys thing one should invest in most with the career points.  I was thinking politics so the CS can get as many men as they can as early as they can to make up for losses.
