    welcome to the org!

    given that ur new to the forums and the game ill point out some obvious ones, having not played the RTI i dont know for sure tho.

    boats?

    Thank you Knoddy, not condescending at all. There is no way (that I have been able at least) to get a boat up there and there is no land bridge. There is a double headed arrow that is gold in color that spans the water. I assumed that it represented a crossing point, but I cannot do anything with the Army to get it to cross there. Like I said, I am sure that it is some game play mechanic that all who have played for a while take for granted. But I have been trying to cross for about 20 turns- Geo Washington actually died of old age!

    Does Quebec actually appear on the map for you, or are you supposed to take Louisburg right now?

    No ham, pepsi.
    They make deli slices of frozen pepsi now? Awesome!
    You also need to purchase a small freezer for storage of your pepsi.
    It runs on batteries. You'll need a few.
    Uhh, I guess I won't have pepsi then. Do you have change for a twenty?

    I have had Louisburg for sometime and even took Newfoundland so I would have something to do. But Quebec does not appear on the map, I only learned that I was supposed to take Quebec after walking in circles with me Army for a while- then I consulted an online walk through that someone posted. Of course it did not tell me how to get to Quebec.

    You game is glitched then. If the area north of the St. Lawrence river is shrouded in black, and you have taken Louisburg, something is wrong. I think you may have to start the campaign again.

    Simply wonderful!

    Another question, while I was waiting to learn how to make it to Quebec, I decided to start a Long Campaign Game. The screen stutters/ blinks!!!!!! I know this cannot be my system, I am running 6MB RAM, have a 1GB video card and the CPU is a Quad Q9000. Suggestions on this?

    So, I am having the exact same problem with road to independance as you are sabot.

    For anyone whose played the whole thing, is it worth redoing this campaign to continue on to ep 3? Mainly, will I learn anything important that I wouldn't pick up in my first campaign?

    Sabot, WRT your graphics issues, do you have an Nvidia GPU? If so try this maybe:

    Also -- you might want to decrease settings, though from what you've described, it sounds like your system is pretty high end.

    Finally, I did read that there's an incompatibility with the latest Nvidia drivers, not sure if this is a problem after the latest patch. Google Nvida compatatibilty and ETW to find a link to the most recent working driver (I'm not sure if this has been fixed with the patch.

    The game only uses 2gb of the ram. If you are using Vista, there is plenty of methods to open up the address space, but I believe a quick topic search can point you to the right direction.

    You haven't mentioned fort niagra, you did take this? It's the prerequisite for attacking the north. RTI is pretty heavily scripted through episode 2.

    Flavius Gonzo asked if it's worth bothering with, you don't learn much more that's essential except episode 3/4 give you a preview of how the later game techs work. and completion is how you can play as the yankees. Don't think I'll play as them again though as it starts pretty late game.

    Thanks for the reply and advice. I restarted the scenario and have defeated the French. At least the game did not crash on me, which is what it has done the last two attepts at playing a Campaign!

    I'm having the same problem with Episode 2 as well. I've defeated everything that needed defeating on the map, but, I cannot see Quebec or Montreal.

    It's the second time I restarted this episode.

    Probably a glitch...frack..
