  1. Retributer, consider this my official request for the community to help better my civil war conversion.

    Here are a few things, which I would like to add.

    1. The possibility of European intervention from France and England, which will be dramatically reduced after the Emacipation Procalmation event.

    This event should not take place until the North occupies 4 southern cities, or something to that effect.

    2. Disruptable convoys for both North and South to England and France. Confederacy should get a -2-1 advantage in convoys, to give the game a better balance, and because "cotton was king"

    3. A requirement to garrsison occupied cities. If this is not done, then there should be a 1 out of 3 chance per turn, of the city rebelling and a partison appearing.

    4.The ability of keeping certain generals in certain theaters. Example: Keeping Lee and Jackson near Richmond.

    5. Subs which can sink each other.

    6. Scripted events. Example: Confederacy captures Washington, and plunders city for MPPs. There should be plunder akin to conquering a country in SC2, when a Capital is captured.

    7. Giving a player a choice, where to move the capital.

    8. I would love to be able to draw red lines on the whole map showing the outline of all existing states at that time. It would just be eye candy, but would really look great.

    ALRIGHT COMMUNITY GET STARTED!!!!!!

  2. Gee whiz Kuniworth, I guess if I had another year to work on it I could make all those changes. (I did mention it as a work in progress.) I don't even know how to make most of your requested changes. I was mostly concerned with game balance. The South has the initial advantage, but the Union continues to grow stronger every month. I wish the cannon could be stronger without adding to the range, but how can you have a Civil war game without cannons? It wouldn't be civil. I would love to know how

    to add convoys from Europe. Perhaps you could enlighten me. As far as the map being too big, I disagree. I suppose that I could add Philly. I use an occupation rule when I play. That is what the guards are for. Too many HQ's: Delete some.

  3. Yes Hubert. Here is the error message:

    1280x1024x32(1); v1.01] FAILED(country_data_dialog: draw_unit_orientation): Segmentation violation

    I was just trying to edit the default 1939 scenerio by adding an HQ to Poland, but could not do it. As soon as I tried to edit country data

    I get the crash. Just tried it again to be sure.
