I originally planned on southern losses on the Rappahannock to lead to a fight along the Rapidan. The map work proved problematic and the design work had to stop at some point or John would have (rightfully) had it with the whole concept. The Rapidan map is currently the basis for something else I h...

The Separate Brigades for 8th Corps/Department of the Middle are independent brigades. They are referred to as Separate Brigades because that is how they are listed in the Abstracts of the Returns for 8th Corps/Department of the Middle during the relevant time period for the game. The 8th Corps/Depa...

An interesting discussion on design. Re: Comment on Brandy Station. I beg to differ regarding the issue of the arrival of infantry. The fact that they ended up not being engaged in the actual battle does not negate the fact that they arrived on the scene - and well before nightfall. Had things not g...

General Collins, Without meaning to sidetrack the topic here, I would note the following regarding the Brandy Station scenario. General Amos has supplied one fix. Another - less drastic - solution exists. I take it that you have been playing the historical scenario. If not, then you are getting cons...

Bill,

Oh - forgot to cover this in my earlier post - I have corrected the release times for 1st Corps in scenarios 1 and 1.1. Again, an error in translation on my part from the campaign scenario 007 which I used as the master scenario for these two.

I'm at work, so I don't have access to much - I will get it later, but I assume that when I garnered "absolutely bogus", "plucked out of air", "erronuneous"[sic] sources they may have been something like this: OFFICIAL RECORDS: Series 1, vol 27, Part 1 (Gettysburg Campaign) Page 386 N. C., VA., W. V...

Aw shoot - I'm blowing off work for a little while to consult some other cryptic, mystical bogus sources. Here's one: Numbers 110. Report of Colonel Arthur F. Devereux, Nineteenth Massachusetts Infantry. TANEYTOWN, MD., July 7, 1863. SIR: I have the honor to submit the following report of the part w...

Ross, There is only one percentage chance in the PDT for ammo depletion checks - it applies to both low and out of ammo checks. Low ammo and out of ammo are hard wired in the code, not contingent on the PDT, so there is no way to do away with low ammo, and keep just an out of ammo check absent a cod...

I see that the original response to my posts has been removed - either by Mr. Peters or someone else - I don't know what the protocol is for that. Prior to its removal I did see, however, the reference to my being either lazy, proud, or mistaken in my facts. And the appeal to authority re: Coddingto...

Bill, As to the historical Gettysburg scenarios the supply wagons for 1st Corps will be fixed during the a.m. hours in the upcoming update. There also was a problem with Heth and Pender's wagons arriving in scenarios 1 and 1.1 which also has been corrected - errors on my part in translating the camp...

When I get home I will look at the scenarios. I forget off the top of my head what variable parameters I used for any given scenario. While a typo is a possibility, I think I probably had a range of possible arrival times with that being on the low end. I'll let you know.

General Amos,

Sorry for the delay but I just got around to locating and checking my notes. Here's what I show for Scenario 88.

Back when I put Campaign Gettysburg together Brett Schulte and I put together an OOB with ratings arrived at via an "objective" system which combined length of service, number of engagements, losses over the course of the war, and a couple of other factors. I ended up not using it as I fel...
