Just the Fax

I will try to buy up more weapons before the reset and see if that helps. I'm a total rookie when it comes to mods so not really want to mess around with those. Just to confirm, the Economy stat has no effect on the quantity of weapons correct?

First off want to say I LOVE this game, great job done with the historical accuracy and overall game play. With that said I have a couple of complaints, two of which I would love some help on. I have played through both Union and Confederate campaigns numerous times and am pretty good at the game, but I still continue to play through them trying out different details. One thing I keep running into that makes no sense to me is I constantly run out of weapons, specifically infantry weapons, while playing as the Union. When I play as the Confederacy I often have tons of weapons from prisoners that I usually run out of recruits before I run out of guns. This makes sense from a historical point of view and I am not at all surprised that I normally can't get as many men in my Confederate army as I can in my Union ones. But with the Union I have tons of recruits to spare but can't use them because I ALWAYS have a shortage of weapons! A sub category of this is there needs to be a larger supply of the high level weapons like your Henry and Spencer repeaters. I understand that the supply should be relatively small but I can almost never use these because there is never enough through the whole course of a campaign to outfit one full brigade of any type! Is there anything I can do? Or is a patch possible that loosens up the purse strings on the armory???? For info I always play on BG, just not really into adding headaches for fun. I normally max out my army organization and politics as fast as I can so I normally have quite a bit of money. I generally focus on Medicine next and then Economy. Would raising my economy level sooner help with this? The tool tip description only talks about this giving me a discount, it doesn't say anything about it increasing the supply or number of weapons.... Any ideas? would love to take more advantage of the industrial capacity advantage the Union had historically.
