I'm well into my fourth WBTS game this year and enjoying the hell out of it. I wonder why it never really caught on. Any comments?
Is there anything that can be done to pique some interest? Matrix has it on sale for $9.60!!! |

| I think the new rules are fair. Note that General Meyer is quite right, the "no going back" is temporary and can be removed by unanimous vote of the Cabinet after what amounts to a two year probationary period. |

The explanation regarding command range being less than shown makes perfect sense and the positions of the two detached division commanders fits the reduced command range.
Thank you all for helping to clarify!!! |

| I've thought that signal units (maybe balloons?) would be nice. I agree it's odd and I've relied on that change for alerts. |

Gentlemen,
I'm playing an Antietam 3.0, 40 turn Meeting Engagement near Bull Run. My Union troops under McDowell are ALL well within the area marked as his headquarters range but two of five Division commanders are detached even though they were within range too.
Anyone have an explanation? |

Jackson prevented them from moving south and merging with Hooker and Sumner who were being engaged by Longstreet around Boonesboro.
