They are places to exit units off the map.

In the Squad Battle games there is a PINNED result. It is NOT automatically removed, but a leader stacked with the unit can rally it to a DISRUPTED state in the next turn. So, pinned is not in the ACW series, but is in another Tiller game, so...[;)][;)] <b><font color="gold">Ernie Sands LtGen, CO XX... |

Some of the VIEW menu items are "sticky", like objectives and supply sources, but contours isn't one of them. <b><font color="gold">Ernie Sands LtGen, CO XXIII Corps, AoO http://www.pbem-war-gamer.com/ccc/images/alfred.gif ACWGC Cabinet member </b></font id="gold"> |

An interesting question. For the most part, especially in the BG system, the games are mostly played historical, as they are very limited in scope. In BG, you are almost forced to adhere to a (close to) historical track, as the scope of the games are limited to that aspect. Sure, you can do some odd... |

Thanks, Drew. It will be good to have the Shiloh updates in these games. It is also very good to have the scenarios updated when new information is found. <b><font color="gold">Ernie Sands LtGen, CO XXIII Corps, AoO http://www.pbem-war-gamer.com/ccc/images/alfred.gif ACWGC Cabinet member </b></font ... |

In that way, a combined battery would fire at the lowest range, firepower and damage of the the 3 types of cannon. I don't real... |
