| About 25 years ago, the club was pretty much predicated upon the principles that Paul is talking about. Role playing existed to a great extent. But some members weren't used to being talked to in that manner and others went a bit overboard with their roleplaying as well. Even though there was a lot... |

| I don't think you are wrong to wish that there was a greater sense of "us vs. them" in the Club. I wished that also. But since I joined I have found extremely little of that attitude and have found everyone on both sides more than willing to help out with anything when asked. I used to wo... |

| I'm wondering why the GinC of the Confederate Army is providing aid and comfort to the other side by providing them with tips and advice. For the same reason my Union friend Ned Simms is contributing - we love the Club and want everyone to do the best they can! :mrgreen: It seems to be against the ... |

| All. I also think other sub groups within the club could be useful such as Teams You can join for MP play and explain that MP games let you Experience A large Battle without the Time it takes to move Large Armies I've generally found that MP games are slower than one on one games. Unless a MP game ... |

| YES, I KNOW VERY DISHEARTENING I guess I just don't get it I'm not personally interested but I do have a couple of comments to make for your consideration. Firstly, you are a 'mixed team'. The Club rewards 'Battles' over 'Maneuvers' with Maneuvers only attracting half the OBD points compared with B... |

| My advice; don't try to defend Gettysburg with Buford . The CSA will learn to hate them on day one if used correctly. I agree. Buford has had a prominent role in both games. In neither has he attempted to defend against Heth's advance to Gettysburg. I think that Buford would only try to stop Heth w... |

| My revised scenario for the Battle of Gettysburg (Gettysburg Supplied) has now been made available in the 'Customized Scenario Database' which can be found here ( https://www.acwgc.net/customgames ). This scenario is essentially '007 Gettysburg' with the following changes. Supply Some consider that ... |

| My thoughts on the changes to Gun Losses, the User Manuals states both Fire and Melee use the same Combat Results process for determining # men lost. The difference being that Fire uses the Adjusted Fire Value and Melee uses the adjusted strength of the opposing side. Regarding the increase in Gun ... |

| Another odd thing I've noticed since the 'Artillery Scouts' issue was raised is this: Unless there is a large unit attacking, it is almost impossible to remove any limbered guns in melees. It is ridiculous. In a current game we have had line infantry attack limbered artillery in clear terrain. The m... |

| I Have noticed the Union players due to usually more and better tend to pile as many guns as they can into a single area and use them as a mobile fortress and any confederate battery to counterbattery them. I myself do not see this as a bug as much as others seem it to be. Eight is the absolute max... |

| 'Detached units cannot melee' sounds like a good house rule to me. It would prevent commando style raids, and stop units that rout the wrong way' becoming an infiltration force behind your lines. VPs for supply wagons vary across titles, and across scenarios within titles. In two scenarios I'm playi... |

| Good News - The error does not effect infantry. As you can see below, the losses for infantry are the same from Version 4.04 to Version 4.05. This is the way it should be!!! It's also makes what is going on with artillery losses stand out so much. The gameplay results should remain consistent from ... |
