Re: Cavalry Field: Am I missing something?
<t>Thanks for all the replies. I guess I'll just saddle up and soldier on. No need to apologize for striving for historical accuracy! I am still curious about the weapon behavior though. I didn't expect that merely equipping troops with breech-loaders would amount to an "I win" button, but I did exp...

Cavalry Field: Am I missing something?
<t>I'm coming back to the game after a few months away, so I'm catching up with all the changes. I'm really loving a lot of the tweaks to sounds, artillery behavior (nice to see bursting shells actually doing damage) and I was excited to see the cavalry field scenarios now included. Until I played a...

Re: Gettysburg Battlefield Bookstore
I remember thinking the same thing about TC2M when I was at the Manassas battlefield bookstore a while back. These are great educational tools (in addition to being damn entertaining, of course!).

Re: Ah, that delicious feeling of hair-shredding frustration
<t>That is a good AAR, thanks. I was trying a strategy that was generally similar but I don't think I moved aggressively enough at the beginning. I think my only (mild) quibble with this scenario is that while it is winnable, it doesn't seem to be winnable with all variants. There are some that seem...

Ah, that delicious feeling of hair-shredding frustration
<t>Just coming back to SoWG after not having enough time to really play games for a while. Pleased to find that it is still kicking my arse! I'm still trying to beat the McLaws scenario which is, for my money, the hardest of the stock scenarios. I was losing handsomely. The entire Federal army Zerge...

Re:Future releases, will it include the MAC?
<t>I completely understand the reasons for not doing this for SOWGB. Creating multiplatform games is highly resource-intensive for developers and may well be beyond the scope of a team made up mainly of volunteers working on a game that most of recognize is a niche game--however much we love inhabit...

Re:GB08 - Devils Den
<t>I just wanted to say that I'm glad someone brought this one up. I myself have nothing productive to add since I've been slaughtered the three times I've tried it so far. However, the closest I came to success was when I recalled not just the sharpshooters posted up toward the rebel starting posit...

Re:all ,and team chat in ,ingame chat, and ban vent
<t>rckgunny, I think what people are saying by suggesting that the "free/team chat" function be an option that can be turned on or off is simply that it will ensure that players can have the kind of game that suits them. There are a lot of people out there who really like the historical authenticity...
