Oh, no! Now "Colonel" Bill Peters and Alan Lynn, the CSA Chief of Staff, are chiming in with their two cents! <i>"This thing will get out of control!"</i>

Well, General Dragan, you've managed to insult our Western Theater Commander, General Antony Barlow, our own good present and former army commanders, Lt.-Gen. Derald Riggs and General David Danner, and you've even tossed an aspersion my way, suggesting that I must pull a cork to take the field! All ... |

I think that it is more principally due to "B". As many have already stated, the mechanics of the basic game engine for any single battle to conserve manpower and limit losses do not provide strong enough incentive. This is somewhat tempered in a campaign game, where the preservation of effective ma... |

I categorically vote for #3! <i>3. Basic Loads: All ranged fire units should be assigned with a basic load and subject to run low/out of ammo to be resupplied from wagons.</i> This would go the furthest towards eliminating that horrible, random, first fire depletion! I am assuming that "ranged fire ... |

I don't know about a favorite piece of HPS disk music, but I can sure tell you what I feel is the worse piece! That dirge-like, morose, morbid fanfare at the very beginning of all HPS disks is about the most depressing thing I've ever heard! If the object of the piece is to remind us all of how horr... |

This is an extremely imteresting thread, and one I believe that should be read by everyone. In our exhuberance to play these games we sometimes overlook the obvious distortions to realism; and the game mechanics involving ammunition supply for both artillery and infantry is one of those areas that n... |
