Status: offline 		Hey guys. I was just playing a PBEM game and it's still early in the war (about 7th turn). I'm the Confederate, of course, and successfully laid siege to Cairo, as well as, defeated an enemy "rescue" force. No Union units were in the province, none in the city, in fact, I garrisoned Cairo. Next turn, I started building a fort and was again attacked. The Union player not only got the terrain bonus but also a bonus for fortification. I don't get it. Am I missing something?

Anybody else experience this?

Status: offline 		same thing happened in our game, you had 1 brigade that you mustered the same turn as the city was supposed to be captured by me.
