Status: offline 		Do you have save-game or autosave files from just before or just after?

Does the army show up on the Military Screen, or the Overview map?

Are you playing with compact stacks turn off?

Status: offline 		they did not retreat from petersburg, it said they were victorious and only my generals were left in place of the entire army.  I am unsure what compact stacks are, sorry! i did instant combat but it said the confederates lost 3500 causualities and union 0.  I wont have contact with the saved files for a couple of days, i might be able to send them to you later in the week.

Status: offline 		The 3500 / 0 casualties probably just means that one side ran away from battle and took some losses in the course of their retreat.  If they had no locations to which to perform a valid retreat, then their units were likely destroyed.

I forgot to mention that i did try and load it up again and although it took another turn for the rebel army to attack it still happened. i will send eric the files when i can and see if he can find something wrong with it.
