  1. Hey Guys, Great Job on the mod. Lots of great features and improvements. Really appreciate all the time and attention being put into it. Took a great game and made it better. I was playing the vanilla game on Legendary so I took your advice and started on MG. Finished the Stones River battle today and am finding MG to be far too easy. With the artillery changes you can just use your best guns to counter battery the AI into oblivion and then take out the infantry unmolested. So I restarted a campaign on Legendary, the CSA opening battle is much easier than the vanilla on legendary. I think it's about right for an opening battle. The vanilla always felt a little too hard. Like a small version of Antietam. Unfortunately, I had forced one of the batteries to surrender and after finishing the battle I was met with the 'defeat' screen. I know I annihilated two of the three batteries (one had been split). However, the victory conditions showed that neither battery A or B had been taken out. I saw another post describing this issue, so I guess the latest version of the mod is still having an issue. Although I like the changes to leaders, It does create a couple of issues that would be nice to address if possible. We now get Thomas Jackson as a Colonel after 1st Bull Run, which is close to historically accurate (I believe he was a Major while commanding the Stonewall brigade and promoted to Colonel shortly after 1st Manassas). However, it was not long after that when he received his promotion to Brigadier General after a successful campaign with his division in western Virginia. In the mod it takes far too long to get him to Brigadier General. Having had him wounded twice, He is still only about 90% of the way to BG after the Stones River/Murfreesboro battle. I'd really like to be able to make Jackson a Corps commander much earlier in the campaign than the mod is allowing. Also, Longstreet also comes in as a Colonel and is still one after Stones River as well. Personally, I'd like to see Jackson come in as a Colonel about 90% of the way to Brigadier General and Longstreet should definitely arrive as a BG in my opinion. Just a suggestion. Keep up the great work, thanks again for all the time and effort.
