Is SOW a dead game?

<t>Got tired of waiting before saying something - Gotta tell ya... I'm really disappointed. Been two years since any new large ACW battles have been put out. (Ya, ya, ya I know... european market, blah blah, blah).<br/> <br/> But the reality is, once GB, Antietam and Wilderness were out, I expected ...

Re: Windows 8.1 rejects SOW

<t>FYI - Just went through this, new Win 8.1 64 bit, Toshiba 2 in 1 laptop/tablet - reinstalled the game through Matrix (? think so). Got it all working, but (just checked) I am running it in Compatibility XP SP3 Mode.<br/> <br/> Runs fine (beautifully actually - modern laptop HS display is so good,...

Re: New Computer - Fun with Game Software [FIXED - THX REB]

<t>Related Q (now that ANT is working)<br/> <br/> With newer machine (new HD laptop is set to run at 1920 x 1080 on a 15.6" screen), I'm still looking for suggested settings.<br/> <br/> It seems that the splash screen, main menu, and in game menus all appear pretty small at that setting (they don't ...

New Computer - Fun with Game Software [FIXED - THX REB]

<t>[FIXED] Orig got ANT so long ago, that ANT was not registered with Matrix - Now have ANT - Problem solved thanks to Reb<br/> <br/> <br/> Was kinda dreading this, as my experience has been that trying to keep games working across OS changes is always about as much fun as self-dentistry.... but I d...

Checking In Happy - Next?

<t>Hi All... ongoing happy player, not a big poster (last posted almost a year ago). Happily enjoying the stable well built game, but was wondering (wasn't really interested in Waterloo)... is there a Shiloh or Chickamauga or Chatanooga Lookout Mt. in near term? (or maybe someone has those crafted a...

Re: Scourge of War Gettysburg on iPad?

<t>My apologies for a luddite comment, but I don't understand why it wouldn't already run on most tablet type machines - as they all now seem to be pretty robust in terms of processing power, no? (Please don't flame me for a dumb question)<br/> <br/> I realize that they're probably not up to the lev...

Resting Cavalry Question

<t>So I've pretty much run my cavalry ragged running around, capturing guns, pinging the enemy's flanks, etc. Now they're pretty bushed (winded, exhausted, various).<br/> <br/> Now I've moved them back out of harms way to give them a bit of rest and rearm.<br/> <br/> Q - Do they recover faster mount...

Re: Managing Regiments

<t>When placing a formation prior to engagement... what determines where the regiments appear in a formation?<br/> <br/> Is it simply a cardinal point and distance decision to fill the positions (flank, front, rear)? Like 'whoever can get there firstest with the mostest?' ( I suspect that this is th...
