| Sorry for the tardy response. I think I emailed you separately that I found the problem...kinda dumb. I didn't take the "retire" litteraly and wasn't trying to move it to the rear. Then when I did realize it is intended for retreat, I still couldn't because I think I probably was trying to move uphi... |

| As I said, I wouldn't argue hard for any of the points usually made here about optional rules and later additions. I usually am a follower and rather trusting. I figure if it gets into the game that the designers know more than I do...my beef has always only been the dearth of information about vari... |

| Ernie...I wouldn't argue hard one way or another but on the other hand, those wagons represent a lot of men don't they? And if a foot soldier can trudge by and stick a twig or pipe stem into a touch hole, I should think a few wagon crews would have enough wise guys among them to muster up a little e... |

| Mike. Thanks. Sorry. It is easy sometimes because of semantics to confuse meaning...upon re-reading I must have missed the "missed" as in the spkee. I see what you meant now. But remember, nothing in this is a duel. I am just trying to sort it all out. After all these exchanges it is becoming cleare... |

| Rich. I am not trying to stump the expert. All I know is that I was able to spike a gun with a wagon. So to understand, are you telling me that this is an isolated, freak occurence? Because if it is, it is very easy to do. A wagon within 10 mp of an enemy arty unit labeled captured and it is RE-Capt... |
