Y'all know it's a damn lie. There hasn't been any history on the History Channel in years. Now if you had said you saw something about the value of Confederate relics versus Union relics in lawn shops the. I would have believed it.

I've checked the online sources but was hoping someone here had actually been to Wilson's Creek and Pea Ridge. I've checked the maps and mileage and I'll have time to get both in on Saturday and still be to St. Louis before it gets too late and I can sleep in on Sunday so I'll hit both of them. Will...

Always loved South Mountain and Second Bull Run. Found 1st Day at Gettysburg to be a fun challenge.

I am a Paramedic for a large County EMS service outside Houston, Texas. But not for long. I am retiring in April to a ranch 100 miles northwest of San Antonio to begin my next life as a "gentleman rancher". Beautiful country that way. I'm envious. Every time I drive through that part of t...

Going to St. Louis in early July for the Elks National convention and planning on driving so I can make a stop at the Wilson's Creek National Battefield. My question for those of you that been there is now much time should I allow for a good visit? Trying to figure out if I can fit Prairie Grove in ...

Am I the only one who has noticed that the updates for Shiloh, Vicksburg, Corinth, Chickamauga, Atlanta, and Ozark were posted today or am I the last to know?

I'll take the CSA side and see what kind of game I can give you. I'll get a file to you tonight and if you don't like my optional rule choices we can discuss and restart. I should be good for two or three turns a week, maybe more if the wife is traveling.

Lee can take the fault for Gettysburg in my opinion. Better orders for Ewell to attack on Day One and ordering the debacle on Day Three fall squarely on his shoulders.

Doesn't make a difference in game play I suppose but Lt. Col. was still probably higher than Benjamin Butler shoul...

I think you had better redo your math as I am pretty sure you were there in a picture from Lee's surrender at Appomattox.
