Hey all

I think I've played about 12 campaigns as the Royalists and every time I have boatloads of money but nearly no WS. In turn I end up only being able to ever buy one replacement chit at a time with the drip. Anyone else having this issue?

Also, I've noticed I can't build anything but northern troops, I have loyalty over 50% in most of my territories so im not sure why.

Yeah I think you need 61% loyalty in some areas, lerugray.
BTW the War Supply function may not be working properly, as you can't seem to get any captured War Supplies added to your pool you've won fairly on the battle field.
I've already highlighted this in the bugs/technical section.

War Supply for Royalists is more limited than Parliament. A good strategy would be to capture big cities (2+size or more usually) which have either established war industries, although you could try to capture Oxford and then get the option to build a couple of useful buildings there. However, capturing Oxford isn't easy. Not sure if any other big cities give you the option to build WS-generating factories.
Another strategy for Royalist would be to try to break the blockade with the decisiions options, that will net the Royalists a couple of War Supply each time you are successful.

I hope its bugged. I just got done playing a grand campaign with Parliament, which I won after taking every city on the map. I never had enough war supply to buy a single unit the entire game, even at the end of the game. All I was ever able to buy were supply wagons.

Did you build factories in Oxford after taking the place? I managed to and built the factories, which generate 2 WS for me each turn after that. But that was all - every other WS I got through the decisions page like running the blockade, or the Queen buying some stuff for me abroad, or seizing it

A small patch is underway, we need to do some test first...

Thanx. Please also check that you can capture add War Supply captured on the battle field to your pool as well
