Re: Register Code?

Thought I needed the code to register w/Slitherine for PBEM?

Register Code?

I bought this game on Steam...how do I find the serial number to register for head-to-head? Sorry for my ignorance...I am new at using Steam + Slitherine/Matrix games (although I have quite a few).

Re: Gettysburg The Tide Turns -- Initial Thoughts

Hmmm....I agree w/a lot of what you say re: design concepts. Fatigue, problems w chits, ect. That said, I still like the game...more as a "beer & pretzels" thing. Definitely not hard core. I have not yet had any problems w/bugs, or the game hanging up, but have only logged ~ 10-12 hour...

Re: First Impressions :)

Well...I can't seem to let it go. 1) This game is a lot of fun, and well worth the price of admission. 2) That said, I have spent the last 8 or 10 hours stomping the Union forces...on the highest difficulty setting. I am not sure if I am simply exploiting the game mechanics, or just dealing with the...

Re: First Impressions...and more!

:shock: OK...I admit I am a noobie at this game (purchased it today). See above post. What the heck am I dooing wrong? I just went through 2 more games, as Confederates, at maximum difficulty. (Campaign) & won a crushing victory for the rebels on turn 11. There are some caveats....my play was ex...

First Impressions :)

Only played 3 games so far, but I love it. The system is familiar, but different enough to make it really fun, but not "gamey." Great map, and the chit system (I thought I wouldn't like it, but was proven WRONG) adds variability which, IMO, increases replay value. :mrgreen: One question to...

32 or 64 bit Java?

Does it matter if your PC has 32 or 64 bit Java? Running the game right now (32 bit), I get a warning from my security software that Java, latest 32 bit version, is not a safe platform. Before I yank it & try 64 bit, has anyone run into this issue. (I got it on another game from the same period....

Re: Help re-installing 3.1

OOPS!!! :oops: :oops: :oops:

Thanks to the "help," on this forum, I found a case where someone asked the same question. Should have seen it before, but missed it. Good search engine! Thank you, Stauffenberg, et. al. The game works fine now. :mrgreen:

Help re-installing 3.1

I am trying to install the 3.1 version after reinstalling my OS. I have Windows 7, & all required hardware. I own the original EAW game (1.0 release from Matrix). Up till now, the game has run well on this PC with this OS; I'm at a loss. I can't seem to install it properly. :oops: What updates d...

English?

I noticed some nice single player DMP scenarios, but everything I see on the bulleten board is in German. Is there a way to get an English version? Or a translation? :shock:

3.1 Update bug?

I downloaded the 3.1 CEAW Gold patch (from Matrix...I asked them too), and when I extracted it, my security (Norton Anti-Virus) program marked it as dangerous, and auto deleted it. Is there a problem with the patch, or is the Anti-virus program too aggressive? :?:

How to install 3.0???

:shock: I purchased the 1.00 From matrix. Can you give me a step-by step instruction of how to go from 1.oo to CAEW Gold 3.0 on 64 bit windows 7? I may need to re-download some of the patches, and don't know how to do this. I currently have 1.00, 1.00-1.12 1.12-gold 2.0 & 3.0 Gold. PLEASE Help.

Noob 3.0 ?

I've been enjoying 5.0, but wonder if I have the install correct...no weather, and only 4 options to choose from. (This is 1939 scenario, with Axis advantage). What am I doing wrong. The clear weather all thru 1940 worries me. :?:

Re: Experience?

Thanks again. I have just upgraded to 3.0. It is great...lots of changes. I was just curious about the dots; I've been using other means to gage unit experience.

It appears the PO has also been given some new brain cells, or at least, new options. :!:

Experience?

This is not deal breaker...just curious what I am doing wrong. No matter what I do, I can't get the little "experience dots" to show up on my icons, no matter what zoom level (3x).

Ant suggestions? :?:
