It probably happened more often that that but it seems to have been fairly uncommon just the same. I do like being a... |

I think if one is withdrawing off the map while engaged and lsoing there has to be a penalty as there is no opportunity for pursuit. If in a camapaign and not engaged the player should be free to withdraw and the game end at no worse than a draw for the other player.. Lt. Gen. Ed Blackburn II/VI/AoS... |

I am playing the Gettysburg campaign now as the Rebs (just for a chang... |

This is nothing new with Microsoft. You should always wait at least 6 months for the first service pack before purchasing any new OS especially MS. Microsoft tends to release their software full of bugs and let the general public Beta test it for them. They will release a bug fix and call it a "Serv... |

How do you feel about the Vicksburg camapaign game? I am playing my first campaign with Paul Smith and was wondering what folks thought.

This is why I like to play the campaigns, You can get a mix of smaller and larger battles as you progress through the campaign in most of the titles.
