Hello all. I have just recently started playing PON. I am still on turn 1 and have so far, reorganised my military, sent diplomats to a number of German states, started building a logging site, and made changes to my trade. I am almost ready to hit end turn but I need to start some colonial projects...

Hello all. I came back to the game in the last few days and it has finally clicked. I am now playing the grand campaign and thoroughly enjoying the game now. I am playing as the Royalists as my county was a firm Royalist region at the time. There are a few things that I still need to understand bett...

Many thanks, sir. Most helpful :) For further information see Guide For Modders For instance, modding music files is detailed in Developer Diary #5 - Groovy, baby! Good luck if you want to go even further into modding! Next step: add those CCR and Stones tunes to your game install :D Many thanks :)

It is a die roll. Although certain nations (and certain decades) are more proficient at it than others. Many thanks, sir. They eventually got the hang of it and managed to set some claymores in a dense jungle hex just as the VC made they’re first push. I will be having strong words with that squad ...

Hello all. I have restarted Boot camp 2 as I failed on my first attempt. I have prioritized laying IED,s this time but one of my Inf 67A units has now failed 4 times. It consumes the 100 points but does not lay the IED,s. The unit is not low on ammo, it is within command range, I have moved hex in c...

I for one would love to see The Boer wars and the earlier Anglo Zulu wars. The Sudan conflict Mahdist War would also be amazingly welcome.
All these theatres are sorely in need of their own PC war games

"We Were Soldiers Once...and Young: Ia Drang - The Battle That Changed the War in Vietnam" by Lt. Gen. Harold G. Moore (ret.) and Joseph Galloway. Book and movie are among my favourites. "The things they carried " by Tim O'Brien Very much obliged, sir. I shall add them to my rea...

Most excellent, I will enjoy the research

It is a die roll based, if you select the HQ and press the W key, or press the Show Command Range button on the toolbar (directly under the Map button) it will show you the effective command radius and range. Many thanks again, sir. So it is tied to command range as I suspected. The die roll aspect...

Good question! They are just conserving ammo for the moment, they can still attack and assault and fire, just at a reduced value. When your Battalion HQ is near, they will help with the resupply process. The Battalion HQ needs to be stationary and in supply in order to start the supply process for ...

Hello all. Whenever I start a new Wargame I like to immerse myself in that conflict by reading books and watching movies, documentaries, etc. I started reading Matterhorn by Karl Marlantes last night and during the first few chapters, you get a great feel for the conditions that US troops faced when...

Hello all. I am playing Bootcamp 2 and have set a number of IEDs on the perimeter of my position. The inf units that set the IEDs are now low on ammo despite moving them back to Improved positions and within command range of the command unit. Does this just mean they are low on explosives or are the...

Some units have a recon ability, although it will only help with spotting, not with identifying the unit itself. With enhanced fog of war, you will rarely know the unit that is being spotted, you will have to learn by the visual and audible clues. (Is it a sniper firing at you? An RPG team? Rifle p...

Hello all. I am playing through the tutorials and have been engaged a number of times by the hidden enemies. Sometimes it is a village and sometimes from dense jungle. I am very mindful of the civilian population and want to avoid civ casualties. Is there a game mechanic that would give me more inte...

I suppose this would work: In your Sounds folder, delete backg0.ogg .. backg7.ogg, and backg10.ogg ... backg12.ogg. (Make backups somewhere if you might later wish to restore them.) Still in the Sounds folder, copy/paste multiple copies of backg8.ogg & backg9.ogg. Rename the copy files as backg...

Hello all. Is it possible to edit the music files so that only the jungle ambiance file plays? I am not 100% but the options/sound/background music seems to have a mix of weapons, music, and ambiance. Options/sound/background sound seems to be all weapons firing. I like just the jungle ambiance whil...

Ah, many thanks, sir.
Now that I am aware, everything is good

Hello all. I am tinkering with the show movement/visible etc overlays. I clicked on the double time button just to see how much further that mode would take me. I did not move but I don't seem to be able to reset it to normal movement. Is it locked once you turn it on? I have tried pressing the butt...

Many thanks for the reply, sir.
