Hi, I'm loving the mod, but I'm getting frustrated about the difficulty. What I can't decide is whether I just need to be better/try new tactics, or whether I simply haven't done the camp phase right. Background = I found confederate BG to be too "easy" (quotes in that I replayed many lost battles), to the point that I quit before Gettysburg (less replaying by this point). But, MJ Union is significantly harder -- I'm replaying a lot more and I've hit a wall at Shiloh. I'm outnumbered 3:1 (does this seem right? I have 24 brigades in one corps, most perks in training, some in economy. No money, but lots of recruits left over in camp upon starting Shiloh. Each division has at least 1 brigade of "nice" rifles ('61s, HFs, Lorenz), an I've spent rep on everything but the money and recruits. Casualty counts in previous battles have ranged from 18/19% at best to maybe 30% at worst (I felt like I did well?) I'm getting better by being more offensive, but can never hold the church -- they all charge and i can't fall back fast enough. Do I need to keep cracking at this, or rethink my army building? Thanks in advance!
