| Larry, Your idea (forced march) is well-taken but, if one is playing the standard 20-minute scenario, forced march is the standard pace. All units, every turn, are marching at a pace faster than AP Hill's forced march to Antietam or the VI Corps forced march to Gettysburg. I did a study on Civil Wa... |

| Thanks Derek. Yes it looks like Larry had the same idea. Interesting discussion there. Sounds like experts with more knowledge than me are already working on it. Good to hear. |

| I was attempting a maneuver on a large campaign map, and it occurred to me that a "double-time" march rule or mode might be useful. It would be where you could have a couple extra movement points for a unit, but it would add Fatigue. It could be a "mode" you engage or a special f... |

| Looks amazing. I always love the large, multi-day, campaign type scenarios. I just purchased the old West Point Military atlas(BG Esposito) books since I was enjoying the free ones online. I would love to test it. I would play locally and check for bugs, issues I notice, or anything that would you w... |

| I would be very interested in taking a look at that. I modded the Battle of Prairie Grove to include the troops stationed at of Fort Hindman at Arkansas Post, and I found that interestingly enough the Wikipedia articles for Arkansas regiments were pretty well referenced and resourced. They could giv... |

| My old gaming laptop was hit by a Yankee shell, and is dead. I have been installing all of my games on my new laptop, and I went to download all the unit bitmaps from Old Banshee, but they don't seem to be there anymore. Did something happen to them? They are amazing, and it will be hard to play the... |

| Very tough campaign for the CSA, but I love when more campaigns are added to the JTS portfolio. I'm thankful for the hard work of the designers that produce these scenarios. As Gen Meyer stated, only the Valley Campaigns will be the major missing campaign after this one, even though there are always... |

| A very interesting idea I must say. Simulating the difficulties of battlefield communication has always been a difficult one in wargames. I would be willing to try it out for sure. |

| I am following up on this. I would love to be able to play some of these scenarios in the HPS engine if possible, in Overland or Corinth. The '62 and '64 Valley campaigns are of particular interest to me. Cam and Tony did y'all find anything stowed away? Thanks. |
