http://www.hpssims.com/Pages/updates/up ... Gettysburg

Changes for Campaign Gettysburg 1.01
- Added optional Victory Points for Supply Wagon losses.
- Added optional rule for full defensive fire against melee attackers.
- Change so that leaders, supply wagons, uncrewed artillery, and limbered artillery by themselves do not block retreat from melee.
- Additional of new optional Target Density rule which causes increased fire value against targets with more than 2/3 maximum stacking in hex.
- New optional Bridge Limit and Repair rule that allows damaged bridges
to be repaired and imposes bridge strength limits on movement (see Movement section of Users Manual for more information).
- Change to Disruption recovery determination so that Artillery units use their Morale rating for the recovery test (see Command section of Users Manual).
- Added optional Night Movement Fatigue rule.
- Change to allow leaders to cross any bridge that infantry can cross.
- Fix for 3D base alignment issue.

And yes, the .org files have been updated to resolve the problem of losses not always carrying over during a campaign. [8D]

This update will not have any effect on existing PBEM games, as long as both (all) players upgrade at the same time???

That is correct, as far as I know there should be no issues.

Gents:

I have a problem, I can play games, help train but when it comes to doing this stuff - well, I am out in left field.

I went to download the new file and this is what I got back:

Can't Create Output File:
C:\ProgramFiles\HPS Simulations\Campaign Gettysburg\CPG.EXE

What did I do wrong? Or is it my computer !!!

Thanks for the help...

A couple of questions, first.

You could NOT actually download the 3 files for V1.01?

Have you had problems in the past of downloading any of the HPS upgrades and then making the upgrades work?

Are you using WIN XP?

I have never had any problems upgrading the patches before. And yes, I do have Windows XP.

Willie,

Sounds like you had the game open when you tried to apply the patch, hence the inability to overwrite the exe file...



LGen. Hamilton

One problem - there's nothing in the patch notes about the function I requested that would limit Jeff Laub's cavalry to half the normal movement points and restrict him to only being able to fight with 40,000 infantry and one hand tied behind his back (his mouse hand, preferably...)

I'm very disappointed that this wasn't included. [}:)][:(][;)][:D][:p]

Thanks Rich,

I was looking for a reduction in artillery gun value losses......Maybe next time?

I was hoping for the same thing, Col. Daley. 60 VPs per gun is alot, in my opinion.

Just go to the scenario editor and change the values. The default I believe is a value of 30 for artillery, but you can put any value within reason.
