Fun and fast, 15 turns. Slightly pro-CSA. USA strength 8,000, CSA 8000 Turn 1 rising to 10,000 Turn 2.
CSA can concentrate on the USA left where USA units are fixed. Forward USA units in the north need to fall back towards USA fixed units.

Two honorable candidates.
No charges of Russian interference or voter fraud.
No hours long waits at the polls.
The election panel counted the votes and reported the results in our lifetimes.
Bravo and thanks to all who participated in this. |

| General Drummond <salute> The rules allow melee in column formation. Many have written that such action historically was very rare. However, as you know, assaults across bridges (at Antietam for example) occurred. In most of the games I have played, my opponent and I agree to use this house rule: -M... |

| Gentlemen <salute> Before you two get too embroiled in the beverages, what battle is being celebrated here? General Drummond, I am wondering if General Miller actually came out to fight? I am engaging him in a battle near Perryville and have seen not one Reb. Perhaps they are in or near the bar wher... |

Force mix is also interesting with Blunts Kansas Division being comprised mostly of Cavalry. USA reinforcements redress the imbalance at the start... |

| Warhorse. I would need to spend some several hours getting my old and treasured board games stored in my attic out and arrayed for a picture. On the other hand, I will simply say that game collecting can be addictive and the abuse problem that started for me in 1964 has continued unabated and I now ... |
