Another Newbie Slugfest - Restarted

Ok, Game Restarting Again. I am truly sorry. I started it just before I went to bed, and obviously went past 9.

I too feel 0 Indies is just too cheap.

Game is restarted and ready for upload of new pretenders.

By the way, how the heck do you rename commanders. I have tried and tried and tried to do this but nothing seems to work.

Is it in the manual, if so just tell me the page, or to RTFM I admit I have done as usual and laid the manual aside as soon as I got the box open, I have looked for it breifly in the manual but no luck.

Thanks, Grim Knight.

you right click the commander and hit the "r" key

i believe that is the key lol

Indies 0 is one of those tiny little things that annoy - not so much that I think that no one has ever used the setting except possibly for SP testing, but because it's one of the settings that wraps around, while others don't.

Seems like if you're increasing the strength of independents, it's extremely unlikely that you want it set to 0.

Note though - I've definately seen provinces empty of troops on a setting of at least 3, possibly 5 or 6. We had a PBEM game going, the 2nd turn I see provinces supposedly empty of troops. I oh so very hesitantly moved 2 separate armies out, orders to retreat - and took both provinces. Yet the setting wasn't 0, and after those 2 the neighbors all had the usual 30-60 troops. (Happily we did a restart, as it turned out to be a very bad choice of maps.)

Very nice! Another try at geting this game going. Already, three people have taken their turn, including me.

Interestingly enough, I am in nearly the same starting location as I was the previous one with the zero indies. Is this a sign? A sign of what? A sign that I am the One and Only True Pretender?? Only time will tell...

Good luck, all.

How come the game is exactly the same as the 0 indie one?
Has everyone else the same starting positions and the same turn as their first in the Last one?
Im confused
