| I'm sure that this topic has been covered before, but I can't find anything in the designer notes as to why a 50% reduction in fire strength is made when using Automatic Defensive Fire in the HPS games! Can someone explain this to me? I note that there is no such reduction when using the Manual Defe... |

I am involved in HPSCCH, Scenario # Cam_Murfreesboro C1U2, and the Union forces are missing the brigade commander, Price.

| I'm an old throwback to the cardboard counter days, so I have a built-in preference for playing my BG and HPS sims in 2D. I only very seldom use the 3D views, and then usually just to check out details like whether I have intrenchments built or not on a specific hexside. But I'd kind of like to find... |

| Well, Gary, I suppose that those equatorial flyovers ought to count for something, but I'm not sure for what! You see that's the trouble with the SeaBees. They're always flitting about in a great rush either tearing things down or putting things up, all in the name of the Navy! There's really nothin... |

A fairy tale is a bunch of BS told by a Navy guy who's never been across the equator. A sea story is t... |

| I've got to come to the defense of my fellow officer, Jim Wilkes, on this one. There is no way that a routed enemy unit found behind friendly lines should be able to prohibit movement by anyone, including other routed units. They should exert no ZOC. Futhermore, they should simply be displaced if mo... |
