| Assuming that you are meaning within the Civil War Battles series. HPS, no. JTS has titles being developed as had been posted in here by I think Mr Walker. I think per his count as posted in here about at the time that Chancellorsville was released, was that there are 3 titles currently under develo... |

| Stones River - I'd been there in the 80's - and boy, that is shocking to hear how things have gone; pretty sad really. I'll put in a vote for the Battle of Westport (Missouri), the majority of the battle occured in what is now Kansas City proper. It was the largest battle west of the Mississippi (Oc... |

| I imagine that there has tohave been an incorrect box ticked somewhere along the line. I'm basing that on that you can open the file within the program and see the replay etc... the program I don't think has the ability to see and play any save game file (bte, or spf, or I think hotseat uses a sligh... |

| I don't believe that Albert Sidney Johnston was over-rated at all; I don't necessarily know that there was enough information out there to actually rate him all that much, but I do believe that the politics of the day dictated that the sites for both Forts Henry and Donelson were both poorly done.

I think the review tells you a lot more about where Armchair General comes from concerning simulation games, fwiw.
In the interests of full disclosure, I used to be a moderator on their forums. |

| I don't really know how much more honest that you expect the company/companies to be with you. They've said time and again that what drives development (in the case of Tiller- Matrix is a different situation -as they are a publishing house for a variety of developers), is the military contracts. If ... |

| I've seen a few posts regarding this article at a few different boards out there on the net. I replied to one on the Wargamer.com but those dicussions there can get a little too off track, and it is a serious question, but I also think that guys that do the entire "whoa is the wargaming communi... |

| The club's best course would be to drop a line to support@hpssims.com and get the request lodged in the system with HPS. Can't tell why they don't - they also got at least one other club's link down wrong, which leads one to think they might not be all that current with their links there ... but the... |

| sc_rebel: The how part of mods - there isn't really a straightforward answer -or one size fits all type of answer. For me, a lot of it depends upon how comfortable one is with an image editing program and working with layers. If all of that sounded Greek, then -well it might be a little tough to exp... |

| Thanks for the suggestions. It turns out that apparently there is a problem with the USB ports. I have five at the rear of the machine and two in front. I usually keep the permanent stuff like keyboards at the rear, obviously, leaving the front ones for USB sticks, digital cameras and the like. Jus... |

However, I will see if I can round up a division. :/ You know it always amazes me that when Lee said about Pope (paraphrasing) that: "(Pope) had his headquarters where his hindquarters ought to be...&quo... |
