The Easter Bunny's loss is of no great consequence to the Union war effort. It is true that in prior years he had served as something of a moral booster for the folks at home; but more recently he became a supporter of Dan Sickles' political career and fell prey to the wild drinking parties in Washi... |

This all seems like a lot of effort to control the historicity of a scenario for the first time played, if one doesn't simply pre-load the scenario from the opponent's perspective. Or am I missing something in how the game engine might randomly select those VP values each time the scenario is opened... |

I move that retired General Kenneth Miller be re-activated as the ACWGC's Technical Game Consultant! |

Rumor has it that Fred Edens was on his way to the Union Army Recruiting Office when he unfortunately ran into Cameron McOmish and was introduced to "Kentucky Bark Juice!" Cam ought to have a sign placed around his neck that says, "Approach with Caution!" |

I joined the club in 2007 having only the five, original, TalonSoft Battleground Civil War games. My first purchase with the campaign series was Gettysburg. After that I started acquiring the others in the series about one every three months or so, until I finally had everything. I also purchased al... |

Well I suppose that I ought to exert an effort be calm and collected after reading these two latest statements, but I’ll ask for both the reader’s patience and forbearance as I stumble my way through my responses. The Cabinet has certainly done its first job by facilitating the presentation of the p... |

The Cabinet seems to have very definitely proposed a change to the voting rule for CoA's: major generals are now proposed to be included along with generals and lieutenant generals! As you have already stated: "There are TWO issues of adding Major General to those ELIGIBLE to be COA AND to thos... |

"Proposed rule: "3.3.4.1.2 In the election of a CoA, only members at the rank of MAJOR GENERAL, Lieutenant General or General, at the time the voting period begins, may vote for the CoA representing their respective military group." I'm questioning whether it would be better to allow ... |

While I would agree that a CoA candidate should be someone who has at least experienced the successful command of a division, and thus establishing some measure of administrative credentials, I am not so inclined, nor have ever been, to believe that the vote ought to be restricted to the same rank a... |

Well, that's just great! Another reb returnee spouting off about changing the war. :P I tell you that this thing will get out of control and we will have to pull troops from the field to reinforce our POW guards. You let one or two of these old retreads back into it and pretty soon you've got all o... |

Maybe I'm not familiar with all of the game controls available, but is their a way to call up at your own convenience the last view of the battlefield after you've sent off your turn to your opponent without simply saving the screen shot? I don't normally screen save all of my turns, but on occasion... |

I'm curious to hear anyone's appraisal of the recent film, Fury, starring Brad Pitt and Logan Lerman. Somebody went to a lot of trouble getting their hands on the real tanks used in this production. |
