| I was having trouble stacking with artillery units until I found in the new rules that one artillery piece is now equivalent to 80 men. That is a big jump from 25 men. ...... When I edited the User Manual in 2019 Artillery counted as a 50 men for Stacking, not 25. This goes back to the old BG days.... |

Scott,
Got home today, sent you the original zipfile I download some 25 years ago.
I did add an Open Office conversion of the Help file I made using an online convertor some years ago to it.

I worked with Walt Dortch after Joe Meyer had to retire suddenly.
He and Jim Boling stepped up to keep the Union Army functioning.
He was an asset to the Union Army and the ACWGC and will be missed.
My condolences to his family. |

| Having 8 as a "hard" number -- historically correct or not -- would work against the 6-gun Union batteries. The CSA could stack 8 with their organizationally smaller units. Don't know if this was part of WDS thinking, but to be "fair" would require reworking Union OOBs. Their ch... |

Congratulations Colonel Welder.
The ACWGC Special Service Award is a new award on me.
We originally had the Legion of Merit for service to the club that was replaced by the Washington Medal a while back.
I have no graphic for this award. |
