Here's another one: Was slavery the main cause for the secession of the Southern states? If so, in how far? What other reasons could be argued for, and were there any that had no connection to the issue of slavery at all? I am by no means an expert and lack any cultural connection to the ACW era (I'm European), but the primary sources I consulted so far (several states' declarations of secession) all state slavery, or fear of imminent abolishing of slavery rather, as the central reason for secession. Yet, many people tend to bring up the much cited "States' rights" when it comes to discussing the reasons for secession. What, if any, is the connection between those two issues? Are they not to be understood to be synonymous in this context?

I think another Civil War game with a campaign map would be best. They already got the engine and the gfx for this setting. I'd say build upon that.

Yeah, I'm pretty disappointed by this aswell, especially since being able to play the full dynamic campaign in MP was one of my main reasons to buy this game. But to be fair, this was never announced to be a feature. I kind of expected this to be a given, though. Maybe this can be implemented retroactively into UG: Gettysburg sometime in the future when their new game has such a feature.

Thank you for clarifying that! Too bad, but I'm looking forward to see such a feature in future games!

So... is there no interest in this whatsoever? Also, I'd really like to know what Darth has to say about this. Is this planned for a future patch? Never going to happen? Just talk to me! Since the decision room is already in the game, why can't we play the campaign in PvP?

First of all, congratulations on this new update. It immensely improves the gameplay and overall experience. I hope there is more to come! One thing that I really miss though is the ability to play the dynamic campaign in multiplayer. As I understand it, the AI has to make choices as well between the engagements. So we basically already got the framework for a multiplayer campaign. Is there a special reason for it not being available right now? Can we hope it will be added one day?

I think Darth stated that the patch is essentially ready and was supposed to be ready for distribution after the weekend (today). I sense another delay. I so hope that I'm wrong, though.

So... where is the patch? Also, can we expect aesthetic improvements for the PC version? The iPad version looks way more polished in my opinion.

Thats all good and well, but I still think there is something odd about the roll back. Don't get me wrong, I like this game and I want it to improve steadily, but wouldn't a beta branch in steam have prevented all this? Additionally, the steam news still says 1.01 is released, and I take it that most buyers of this game don't hang around in this forum. This all might come across slightly amateurish to some people (something I clearly think the devs are NOT) and could hurt this games PR.

Considering that using the alternate render fixed the issue for now, no. I'm rather confused by this decision.

Now hand over the patch, already! Also, I can't stress the need for a multiplayer campaign enough!

Very glad to see the major issues are getting fixed! Keep up the good work, guys! On a side note, will we ever see a full multiplayer campaign? That would be awesome!
