Gentlemen, Thank you. This is a much better response than I got at my own household. When I announced the news at the dinner table and informed my wife and son that they needed to start calling me "Sir!" and saluting when I entered the room, they just looked at each other then fell on the floor laug... |

Gentlemen, As General Pierre has stated elsewhere, I have been ordered to report to Richmond, effective immediately, to assume command of all Confederate forces. I have asked General Chris Cross to serve as my Chief of Staff, and he has graciously accepted. I want to thank General Jim Thomas for hav... |

Gentlemen, I agree that a 'physical fatigue' feature would add to the realism of the games. I am very prone to marching men all over that map at night, espcecially if their fatigue is low. (Opponents beware!) Although superhuman feats can and do show up in war (as in other aspects of life), it reall... |

Dear yankeydog: I'm confused about the skirmisher item. You seem to be implying that if you imploy skirmishers it will slow the enemy down when he moves into the 'skirmished' area. When I read the rules originally I thought this was the case, but I believe the rule was ambiguous. My understanding no... |

General Callmeyer, I much prefer the newer turn-based rules. I realize they allow blitz-type tactics, which were not historical, but the phase-based rules allow a player to have entire regiments hop from cover to cover so they can never be fired at, or to send a unit marching in the open all along a... |

Are the naval games turn-based, or real-time? Are they suitable for pbem? With the Confederate Secretary of the Navy bein... |

Tony, I almost hate to bring this up, but is there any chance the orders/suggestions/reports from one side would be 'intercepted' and sent to the other? I wouldn't think it would happen often (maybe about a 1% chance, if you have a 100-sided die!), but THAT could certainly make things even more inte... |

Omigosh! This thing appears to be spreading over the INTERNET! No more tavern-hopping for me. No sirree, I'm just going to take a few bottles from the bar and head back to my HQ tent for a while.
