Hello everybody,

My name is Paul and I am a new cadet for the Union Army. So far I have Campaign Gettysburg. I am a bank teller from the Pittsburgh area and a current business and history student at West Virginia University. In my free time I enjoy watching sports and playing a long list of computer games.

I am also very active in multiplayer groups for Scourge of War including Gettysburg and Waterloo. I have also been very active in Mount and Blade Napoleonic Wars and War of Rights in the past.

I am very excited to get into the melee with you guys and see how my skills match up in the chaos of battle.

Thanks for the warm welcome,
Paul

Welcome, Paul! We need to make sure we do not accumulate TOO many Pauls, as they tend to operate in packs, clearly evidenced by this thread.

You can never have too many Pauls. In my first office job there were five Pauls on our floor alone. Now, however, it's becoming an increasingly uncommon name. In my State in Australia it has not been in the top 100 baby names since last century (and even then it was near the bottom of the list). Long live the Pauls, we are becoming more unique as time passes.

Welcome Paul.

[Edit: I just checked the DoR. There are now two Pauls currently on the Union side of the Club. There are three on the Confederate side (all are in the ANV fighting for their State and country in their righteous cause of self determination).]

Yes we do. I'm at least the fourth in a row in my family to have that name.

Glad to have you with us Paul!! 8)
