Free-key Monday for Making History: The Great War

[Rayfer]

After invading and quite easily defeating then annexing Mexico....the real nightmare began.  Hordes of rebel militia (more powerful than the Mexican army) continually form in area after area, turn after turn, giving me a very difficult time. It's like the real war has just begun. If you don't crush them immediately they move up into southwest USA taking over undended areas in Arizona, Nevada, Texas and New Mexico.

What, they don't want California either?

[Sir Slash]

They already got California. ;D

[Rayfer]

They went into Southern California but I had some troops there sufficient to fend them off. Those rebel militia are tough little buggers.

I detached 3 units stacks on each province as I took them.

A wise decision on your part and one I didn't make....I detached 1 in each province which proved insufficient.

Glad to hear you guys are enjoying the game!!  Please do us a favor and give us a recommendation on Steam.  It really helps the game get seen.

We will continue to balance militia but it's nice to see instability is working!

BTW, I was on vacation last week until today so that's why no keys last week.  I will post some later today.

When I somehow triggered the 2nd US civil war I can understand rebel units on American soil but not in every province I've taken globally.  I would also like more instructipn on how the government screens work  so I can keep my people happy and avoid such things.

[MuzzyDev]

Thanks for the feedback.  The government screens will be in the next manual update.  There are a lot of changes to the AI happening right now, both to make it smarter and to improve the overall performance of the game. 

In general, people are happy when they're fed and winning.  If conquered, the more differences in demographics, the more unhappy they will be.

Steam installed the latest version but I cannot get it to run. It always crashes after I click next on the country selection screen.  It seems to try and load the game, then nothing happens.  A crash file message has come up a couple of times, but the file disappears.

Anyone get this to work.

I've been playing it on a 64 bit Vista rig thats 5 years old....no issues at all, runs fine.

if I payed a bit more attention I could most likely have taken the world as Britan.  as is I'm 39 turns aways from the end and Ive just started my American invasion.  my Empire covers all of Europe, Africa, Russia, China....  shit its easier to list what I dont have.  final global screenshot to follow soon.
