1. Still to fix is the minor but annoying bug that weapons with a fire value of zero on the first range are not showing up in the in-game PDT screen. Currently the missing weapons are in slot d, e & v in all PDTs, these are all weapons with a fire value of zero on 1 hex. 2. Note sure if the weap... |

In that case option 3 seem to match you. |

Nice to see that the process of adaption started by the AotP is spreading, hopefully the other Armies will follow. |

Well WDS showed with Petersburg that it can be justified to put a lot work into such an old engine. And they want to bring all the old games to the level of Petersburg. That the snapshot feature does not work the CW way in NAP is maybe even just because of some inactive code. AFAIk the extreme FoW w... |

Thanks MG Siragusa, looking forward to our game.
@David Martin We could start a smaller scenario from Ozark if you like, "The Battle of Newtonia, Sept 30, 1862 (Historical)" for example in the weather version from Old Banshee. |

Excepting that I don't think it works that way in NB, EAW, or MP - you just get what you have on your screen. It did what you said for Gettysburg though so that ought to save some time. I can confirm this for the Napolenic Battles(Austerlitz), you just get what you currently have on screen and not ... |

Now, I worked through all the weapons in the PDTs and in comparison to Overland all none-artillery weapons got lower values while all artillery has gotten higher. On 1 hex it's not that much but rather high fire values are kept in ranges up to 10 hexes. Usually we had a quick drop in that range and ... |

Cool, totally overlooked that feature as it is only mentioned in the main program manual, thanks. |

I'm not aware that any 6pdr were build in the late war, what is here are surely modified guns only. Even the ANV send back their 6pdrs to recast them to 12pdr, by the time of Gettysburg there was just a single 6pdr field gun in the ANV left. Problem in my eyes is that the naming does not really refl... |

I guess he just means to calculate the current total. What likely needs all bookkeepers in Washington, if not more. |

If you now the scenario I guess you can find the scenario file, open that one with the editor and you should see in the first few lines what map, OOB and PDT is used. For example, opening the 03 Wilson's Creek_Histscn.scn file will show you: Wilson's Creek.map 0Wilson's Creek_OB.oob W-0August_pdt.pdt |

For the map, you can take screenshots with the settings that gives best visibility(hex off, contours on, maybe completely zoomed out), and than put them together in a graphic program so you have a full planing map, it's a bit work but for bigger scenarios in an multiplayer game surely beneficial. |

Sounds good but for now I still have some paperwork to finish and we should also give the Confederates some more time to respond, maybe one of the CSA officers will still volunteer although they seem to cherry-pick their battles more and more wisely as not to loose the war faster than they already do. |

I think I speak for all when I say that we're not too disappointed that you didn't make it onto the memorial page.
Seriously, it's good to see you back in the saddle and that you join our ranks once more. I'm sure we get welcome you quickly back into the AotP too. |
