Hmmm. Stumped me; John coded the weather so you'll have to wait for his reply.
I'm looking forward to your scenario. |

I'll be your Huckleberry for Overland - though I might not be able to quite match your file turn around. Campaign, series of scenarios, or single battle. |

I suggest that "eyes" be limited to Corps commanders and above. This not only limits the games' all-seeing vision to something less than 100% but it can also be serve as a way to introduce "communications". For example, something "seen" by a regiment doesn't really regi... |

I agree with your playing by military principles, John; but trying to keep my brigades together in the Wilderness is extremely challenging -- especially when my regiments lose confidence and run off like a scattered flock of turkeys. LOL. |

One of my presents was having my wife and daughter take me on a short driving tour of Drewry's Bluff and some of the forts (Harrison, Hoke, Brady) on the east side of the James River -- a very merry Xmas. |

Thanks guys, we're glad that you are enjoying the game and that you appreciate the work. It only took about 4 years. Where did the time go?
I have a couple of games going and I think it plays pretty well, IMHO. |

I am stumped again... this time on the 3D mods. When I go to 3D Zoom, I lose the unit 3D bmps; I see the leaders, guns, wagons, etc. but the infantry and cavalry units disappear. Any ideas?
Everything looks good at regular 3D; the problem only appears at 3D zoom.

Guys: Don't be intimidated. I don't think that the scenario will run its full course because the ANV won't be able to build defensive works fast enough to prevent Grant from capturing Richmond or destroying Lee's army. Remember, Richmond had years to build their defensive works. I suggest the Rebels... |

Great graphics package -- like others have said, "like eye candy".
Everything works fine after I corrected my copying error.
Thanks again guys for the great work you did here. |

There is an algorithm for the casualty calculation between campaign battles. But you'll have to talk to an Engineering officer to find out what it is. |

A hidden little gem is located at the back of Little Round Top -- a little barbeque joint and great homemade ice cream. Just follow the road that goes over the hill and its on the corner on your right. You can't miss it. I know what some of you are saying... but its August and you've been walking al... |
