I live in Arlington, VA so, I don't have a lot of personal experience with campgrounds in this area but I'd suggest doing two base camps, one up in Maryland around Antietam and another around Richmond. My recollection is that there are numerous campgrounds around most of the big battlefields, but co... |

It all depends on what you have seen before. If you only have two weeks and haven't seen any or most of the battlefields between Richmond/Petersburg & Gettysburg its a no brainer. Within a 4 hour drive from either end (don't take 95 during weekends or rush hours) you can see all the big battles, Gbu... |

Even though it isn't perfect, I now play all my games in single phase and really don't want to go back to MDF. For me its one of the big advantages of playing HPS rather than the old Battleground games. I'm very supportive, however, of any efforts to improve it, such as making the d-fire more effect... |

So far, my favorite thing about Atlanta is one of the leaders - Capt. G Robinson, 4th Div (Veatch) artillery, XVI Corps (Dodge), AoT (McPherson) - my wife's great-great grandfather. He appears in at least one scenario "Sherman's Advance on Atlanta" I've never had a relative in one of the games. He e... |

Sir, I've got some time to do some whipping on the Rebs. HPS GBurg, Shiloh or Vicksburg would work and I'm also flexible on scenarios - would prefer a medium size one and can average about 2-3 turns a week. Send a courier to our HQ with a couple scenario choices if you're still interested. Col Ed Ly... |

Sir, I just finished capturing Richmond (08a - 7 Days) in just 59 turns and my boys are ready to take the Rebs the last stronghold. I have ordered Vicksburg as well and expect to be ready to go by the weekend. My only caveat is that I'm probably not going to be able to average more that a couple of ... |
