| This probably isn't as simple (or maybe it is?) as it seems. According to the Order of Battle in the WDS Wilderness game, it is Meade. Grant is a supernumerary and serves no purpose in the WDS scenario - he is an observer. His ratings do not factor into anything at all. Only Meade "matters.&qu... |

If you hit "0" on the numerical keys above the QWERTY row then it works.
If you hit "0" on the Calculator Numberpad on the right-hand side of the keyboard it changes formation. |

| Good info and research! Looks like the WDS map got it right. Much to my consternation as I attack the Devil's Den. |

| You know, you play a game a thousand times and then suddenly something hits you that you never intelligently thought of before. Looking at the old Matrix image of Little Round Top and Devil's Den, you see there are no marshy areas between those two points: https://static.wixstatic.com/media/7b5c37_... |

| Ha, that could be so. That map shows a very different situation to that portrayed in the Gottfried map. Where's it from? I'll look into it some more. We'll get a definitive answer somehow. The Longacre book. Ha, I have spent an enjoyable Sunday debating this point with you, sir. Next weekend we mus... |

| It's okay to admit when you are wrong, Paul :mrgreen: The evidence pretty much continues to confirm what I am saying. The action with Davies and Jones occurred nowhere near Centreville. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/7b5c37_bce2fe7de3784dc5a788e56e7c7c2679~mv2.png/v1/fill/w_591,h_788,al_c,q_90,... |

| The centre of Centreville is only just off Gottfried's map to the north. The point where you see an arrow emanating from 31 NY (pointing to a circled 4) is Hex {127,31} in the Bull Run scenario. Should the CSA enter that hex then Miles Division will be released from their 'Fixed' status. . You are ... |

Welcome back, sir!
The "Big Four" in the Club are definitely Gettysburg, Antietam, Chickamauga, and Shiloh. Beyond those, it all boils down to personal preference. |
