Ah, Major! Congratulations on your promotion, sir! I will indeed raise a toast to The Army Of Tennessee and our fine commanders. Now, sir, with your kind permission, I will put a Lucifer to one of those fine Havana's! |

One war at a time. I'm not advocating anything Sherman did to the Native American...but we were talking about the Civil War and Sherman's total war against the South. I think what Sherman was saying was that this all could be ended by the surrender of their armed forces. |

If we're still talking about Sherman, I give you one last quote in a letter to John C Calhoun: "... I want peace, and believe it (can) only be reached through union and war, and I will ever conduct war with a view to perfect and early success.

...and still, nobody gives Sherman's most famous quote BEFORE the war even started! "You people of the South don't know what you are doing. This country will be drenched in blood, and God only knows how it will end. It is all folly, madness, a crime against civilization! You people speak so lig... |

I can't remember the book I was reading (I think it was The War For The Common Soldier) but the author made a point to write something to the effect of, "...both sides praying to the same God for victory." Just a sentence that always stuck out it me. |

Two Field Lieutenants looking for some Lincoln-ites to do battle with. We have Ozark, Shenandoah, Atlanta, and Antietam. Due to us both working, we hope to get a turn in a day. |

I use an external CD ROM and connect it via USB. As far as the compatibility for Windows, I believe you are still able to set what version of Windows you want it to operate under in the program file. |

I agree with General Swanson. I feel there would have been a more aggressive attack by Jackson on the first day. To what end that would have been...it's hard to say. The Battle Of Gettysburg Podcast covered this in one of their episodes, their most famous one, I believe. |
