I am playing Nick D in the Ozarks as I have been banished to the West after the debacle at Gettysburg! (Just kidding-Nick is a great opponent!)
Battle of Westport 1864
I don't know a lot about the battles in the Ozark and have found a great website that deals with those battles. The short introduction video is very well done.

<i>Community & Conflict
This collection offers a portrait of life in the Missouri, Arkansas, Kansas and Oklahoma between the years of 1850 and 1875. It includes photographs, letters, journals and other artifacts that relay the difficulty of conducting everyday matters amid the destruction of the American Civil War. The accounts in this collection offer first hand perspectives on this conflict from a variety of sources: soldiers and civilians, merchants and farmers, men and women.
Community and Conflict: the Impact of the Civil War in the Ozarks collects primary source documents from museums, libraries, archives and private individuals from across the Midwest. Together, these contributing institutions offer their collections as an indispensable resource for researchers. This site examines not only the military history of the American Civil War, but demonstrates the lasting repercussions of the War for citizens, soldiers, slaves, women and children. This project is part of the Missouri Digital Heritage Initiative funded by a Federal Library Services and Technology Act grant administered by the Missouri State Library.

I have discovered a second great site that covers Trans-Mississippi and Pacific Coasts Theaters of the Civil War. It is designed as a source for travel information to the sites.

The great thing about the club is the friends and the competition. The great thing about the games is the learning experience!

It's just like shooting squirrels, only these squirrels have guns
