I'm not personally interested but I do have a couple of comments to make for your consideration.

Firstly, you are a 'mixed team'. The Club rewards 'Battles' over 'Maneuvers' with Maneuvers only attracting half the OBD points compared with Battles. [Note: Most of my games in the past year have been Maneuvers, but that is a different story.] Thus, in the Club it is very much a case of Us versus Them. I have played against mixed teams before, for some reason it just didn't feel right.

Secondly, at first glance at the Opponent Finder I thought that you were proposing Gettysburg 019 (stand on Pipe Creek) - a lopsided scenario where I feel the Confederates have next to no chance of success. I now realise that you are considering the custom BG19 Gettysburg Meeting Engagement.
Many Club Members do not have the custom scenarios and do not bother to download them. I recently had my Gettysburg Supplied scenario (https://wargame.ch/board/acwgc/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=24089) added to the Custom Database (https://www.acwgc.net/customgames). I don't expect many will be interested but it's now there for others should they want such a thing. I did it so another Member and I could enjoy it but realise that it's probably not everyone's 'cup of tea' (a big scenario that requires commitment to play).

PERHAPS MP games should have a separate that would earn points at the level battles do.
Thanks for the feedback I will download your game as well
