The next patch the game will keep a separate high score for each difficulty level :)

By the way -- by "Beat the game on grog" are we talking a major victory in each scenario, or just a victory of any sort in each scenario?

You must beat the same score as on the other levels.

So...has anyone managed to do it yet, or what's the farthest anyone has gotten?
Sorry. I suffer from a serious case of typosis. Don't worry, it's not contagious :)

I have not heard of anyone completing this challenge. It's very tough and would probably require some gamey tactics to accomplish.

Indeed, I don't think even The Mad One could pull it off.. Consider that a challenge JC? :evil:

But really, HITS in itself is very difficult, and on top of that the harder AI difficulty would make it near impossible.

I'm sure it could be done, but like Norb said you would have to use some really gamey tactics... I couldn't imagine beating one of the Peach Orchard scenarios, or the Pickett's Charge scenarios on grog mode. :ohmy:

[Still working on this one. Slowly. Been absent for several months due to work, but looking forward to getting back to it.

Good luck MrSpkr. If you can pull this off, you will truly earn the title of General of the Armies. The scenarios are hard enough as it is on Normal Difficulty.
