We have the map pack done and it's up for sale. I'm trying to figure out how to work with all these online shopping carts, not as easy as it could be, but I think that I've got it.

PLEASE NOTE: THE MAP PACKS REQUIRE PATCH 1.3 TO SHOW UP!

PURCHASE HERE!

OR HERE!

FORUM TOPIC FOR MORE INFORMATION

We've also recently made an agreement with Gamer's Gate to carry the game. This might be better for our Euro paying commanders.

Norb Software Development, Inc. announces the release of the Pipe Creek Map Pack and the required patch version 1.3. The patch includes a few bug fixes but has the major function of enabling Map Packs. The patch version 1.3 must be installed to enable the installation of the Map Pack.

The Pipe Creek Line in northern Maryland was a position selected to serve as a designated battle position for the Army of the Potomac. A circular assigning the corps of the Army of the Potomac to specific locations was prepared on July 1, 1863. This document was superseded by the events we now know as the Battle of Gettysburg. This map pack and scenarios represent what might have happened had the Union army executed the Pipe Creek circular.

The Pipe Creek Map Pack is now available for purchase for $10.00 on the Purchase page at:

http://www.scourgeofwar.com/purchase.shtml.

Specific items in the Pipe Creek Map Pack include:

- Three new 5 x 5 mile maps along the Pipe Creek Line.
- Six new (and difficult) single player scenarios set along the Line.
- Three new multiplayer scenarios, one for each map.

The free patch to update existing installations of the game to version 1.3 is available at: http://www.scourgeofwar.com/downloads.shtml. This patch will bring any version of the game up to version1.3.

The demo version available on the Scourge of War website at: http://www.scourgeofwar.com/downloads.shtml is now at version 1.301.

Hi, I started the first scene- Longstreet and twenty minutes no union troops show up- one small question mark- where is the enemy in this battle please? just starting- thanks for reply

It's a mystery on the first scenario.. You've got to go and fine them.. The only clue is the OBJ marker showing the last known position of the enemy skirmish line..

rclark14,
If you really wnat to know what to do, play the second scenario first

I don't want to give it away here in the forum. I, of corse did not do it that way. I did beat it but I see it would have been easier another way. I am now working to beat that second scenario

I want to ask anyone that bought through ShareIt and FastSpring. Did you receive the proper links to download the installer when you purchased?

Hello. I tried share-it first, since in one of your posts this was the only link to purchase Pipe Creek. I wanted to pay with my credit card. I received the mail that the order is being verified and I shall wait up to 24h hours. After 15h I received a mail that they couldnt charge my credit card

.
Now I tried fastspring and it worked immediately! No problems with paying, downloading and registering.

Great. That's why we have two means of purchase. Just in case one of them doesn't work for you.
