| I have no real strong opinion on the matter. The game suffers from not having two different types of wooded hexes - Heavy Woods and Light Woods. At Stones River (for example) I can move through the woods in wintertime very easily and I can see a long distance through the trees. But in the summer I c... |

| Christian is correct - the DOR continues to have some hiccups. Scott is hoping to iron them out after the holiday madness ends. Musters can be sent to your AC since the DOR is down. |

| If the Confederate government copied the four-year terms of the US Government for their president, would Jefferson Davis have won a second term? Does he run for re-election in the fall of 1864 or do the events of the war in the summer of 64 cause him to lose support and be replaced? Would he be opp... |

My hopes of seeing these games sold in stores (even in the checkout impulse purchase area) were never realized. Now with the demise of ph... |

| I think I am comfortable saying that Glory should be included in just about everyone's "must see" list. Watching it the other day (again) I was reminded just how good it is. The movie seems to have aged very well and may have actually improved with it. The film captures numerous actors in... |
