Matrix Games Forums

It's been suggested that we have a thread for any mistakes people find in bios that are already in the game. Please let me know of anything you find.

Does this include differences in opinion or is it limited only to facts?

Good question. I'd prefer that differences of opinion go in the thread for that bio (as well as any especially important info that might have been left out). Even if a bio is in the game, I'm willing to revisit it if there is sufficient reason to do so.

One thing to keep in mind regarding stuff people might want to see added is that the maximum size for a bio is 3900 characters, so if a bio's at that length I'm almost certain not to make any unnecessary changes.

I don't remember off the top of my head, I'll have to double check, but I'm pretty sure WS Hancock does'nt have a homestate in the game info... pretty sure it is him.

You're right. He was from Pennsylvania, so I'm not sure why that's missing. I'll fix it.

Sounds good.

sooo... Meade, Hancock, and Reynolds were all from Pennsylvania, and all fought at Gettysburg together... interesting

Just thought of this "Tattered Volunteers" Bio....the majority was captured at Ft. Donelson NOT Nashville. Also Quite a few were captured at Island 10. Will post actual transcript from letter from my GG Grandfather concerning this

here is the reference
