Historical Regimental Commanders...
Just today Swinder added a Discord text channel for players to add historical regimental commanders' names to our formations. This is a nice complement to NGCM's practice of using only historical Civil War regiments in our battles.

Re: NGCM: Latest Developments

<r>Yep, real-life can be a problem. <E>:(</E> Most of our players have work restrictions and many are limited to weekend and later evening battles. Several of our group play from the UK/Europe and end up playing well into the late evening hours to line up with our U.S. afternoon start time.<br/> <br...

That said, it is possible to create Sandbox battles with NGCM's mods activated so you get the adjusted graphics for the specialized regiments, etc.<br/> <br/> Players who love SP might want to consider giving multi-player a spin though. It is a...

Re: New GCM

<r>Swinder has introduced some new sprite configurations into an experimental mod (NGCM GamePlay Exp) for us to play with. The graphics requirements are pretty intense and not all machines may run them, but we did successfully play through an 8-player MP battle a few nights ago using it. This is a n...

Re: New GCM

<t>We have a mix of W10 (all versions) and W7 machines and it runs fine. The diagnostics Swinder ran on our system had to do with 1 or maybe 2 mods that caused W10 machines to crash. The mods in question are Sounds and Flags -- so we just make sure none of our W10 players don't have these activated....
