On the most basic level possible it is always easier to travel around a city or town than it is to travel through it. Otherwise why do we have bypasses for cities? I never thought about it in relation to the games but the topic is intriguing from a gaming and historical perspective. Because each to... |

It couldn't have been that tough. The first traffic light was invented in 1868 in London, England. It was installed outside the Houses of Parliament to control the flow of horse-drawn traffic over Westminster Bridge.

<Salute> Sir, I believe your point is very valid and well made. I contend that moving a force of any size through a town, of any reasonable size, is fair to causing delay, confusion and disorder and a penalty for so doing is warranted. The caveat to this might be that it is only relevant in the init... |

How could we miss the 'Mass Email' today, highlight of the week ! 2024 is shaping up to be a humdinger I propose. The Equal Force Challenge is an amazing concept, as already displayed by Blake previously, a true test of generalship, wargaming skill, strategic and tactical ability and on a level play... |

John,
You are most welcome Sir and another fine addition to the ranks of the CSA.
An excellent bio also, always great to know those we fight alongside. Beware you do not find yourself assigned in charge of the commissary or mobile field kitchen though |

<salute> Sir,
That sounds like a wonderful weekend of gaming and fun. Bolt Action should be fantastic and any pictures would, IMHO, be most welcome.
Have a blast, Sir. |

Gentlemen <salute>
Congratulations to each and every one of you on your very fine achievements.
The award of a Pierre Beauregard medal is a significant achievement for any officer of the CSA. The award to General Treuting of his fourth such medal is truly noteworthy. |

I suppose I should probably at least try them. What do you think of the GG one? I have War in the East 1 and 2, fantastic... |
