| Post subject: | Captured Artillery in Campaign Games |
I haven't been playing any campaign games in some time but thought the problem with captured artillery returning at full strength was fixed. It looks like in my current Corinth Campaign, ver 1.08, it still reappears at full strength. I captured all of Standey's and Hamilton's artillery at the battle of Iuka but these guns seem to have risen from the ashes at full strength for the followup battle of Van Dorn's Diversion. Is anyone else seeing this in other games of the Campaign series? LG. Kennon Whitehead Chatham Grays 1/1/III AoM (CSA) |

Kennon, Yes I noticed it. If I had ammo, I'd shoot at captured guns to kill them. Didn't even think that it was a glitch... oops... Brig. General Thompson 1/3/VI AoS |

I find it somewhat silly to have to set asside one battery to go around permanently killing captured artillery. Especially for the Rebel who doesn't have the ammo to waste. But judging from the posts no one thinks this is a problems so I guess they get what they deserve. LG. Kennon Whitehead Chatham Grays 1/1/III AoM (CSA) |

There is no real alternative until the designers give us an agreeable fix to the problem. I've just expended a huge price in Infantry attacking a Rebel position in a campaign Peninsula battle. I've driven off the defending infantry and captured a load of Reb guns, but I cannot move them or keep them. I'm bringing up entire Battery's to blast them at point blank range and remove them that way. Horribly unrealistic, but there it is. Lt.Col. Jim Wilkes. 2nd Brigade, Cavalry Division, XX Corps. AoC.

What is worrying me is there is no mention of the campaign bug. Gun losses due to capture are not being carried forward. All the guns are returned to the lossing player as if they had no losses. Only losses due to counter battery fire are being correctly carried forward to the next scenario. Right now the only solution to all the problems is to not use the new optional capture rules. For Campaign games I think it should be the recommended setting for the club. LG. Kennon Whitehead Chatham Grays 1/1/III AoM (CSA) |
