| I want to advocate a couple of stand alone scenerios in the HPS Campaign system. I have tried 007 and Historical 1 in the Gettysburg system. Historical 1 is very similer to Battleground Gettysburg 13h but of course, using the HPS system. So far(some seven games) its GREAT!!! With all the interest of... |

I have sent along General Dierk Walter`s proposal that maneuver and battle points be the same eccept for the win/loss differential.

| I think Ned brings up a good point as to training games and I think anyone WANTING to count a game as a maneuver game should be able to do that just as two players from the same side that want to count their match as a BATTLE should be able to do so also. I dont even think we have records based on o... |

| Of course. I agree with Tom[:)] As to points, I have so little interest that I often dont even register the games I fight but others do indeed care and even a slight reduction is cause for them to seek out only the other camp( which of course, is the whole point of the matter). Anything that reduces... |

| [:)] A little controversey heh?( and please, just a little!!![:p]) Proposal: cancelation of maneuver points hencefroth ALL fight will be battles. Reason: Why cant we fight guys on our side for full points? It would double the number of possible opponents making it much easier to match up styles of p... |

1. Units outside of Brigade command can only move one hex.
2. BCE
3. Arty. Disruption problem.
#1 really solves a lot of gamey play

| As I read the other thread I thought I would NEVER use the shoot while moving mode as a lot a fellas thought it could be "gamed" and I do agree that in certain situations it certainly can and really good players might have a field day with it. However, all my oppononents seem to like it so I am curr... |

| All. While I wasn`t looking for a debate on House Rules many weighed in on not likeing them. I suspect they are used rather infrequently( not counting the "official" ones from the club). I too am not an offiendo of house rules but when I did use them I found they were easy to use once one got into t... |

| Bill Did a BCE game with Jon Thayer. We kept track of each Brigade and when the average hit 7 the Brigade was BCE`d and could no longer melee or advance into contact. The Brigade un bce`d when the average went back below 7. It worked quite well. Keeping track was bothersome at first but we both soon... |
