Update! Oh! Oh! Kennon has discovered the dreaded 'destroying resources' method in section 12.7 of the rules. I had read it once but didn't know how to use it myself. The bread basket of the Confederacy, the Shenandoah Valley, goes up in flames and for the first time in the war I have not been able ...

Summer 1862 The Union "Anaconda Plan" continues to strangle the south. Supply is critical now and has to be 'rationed' very carefully. Union Cavalry raids continue to tear up the tracks and burn up precious southern resources for repair. Earl Van Dorn operating out of Memphis though harasses, Union ...

Joe: I'm guessing here, but what I really think you meant to say was 'no more single turn play'. This is the issue that has been with the club for years and there are so many different 'settings' in the options screen that it is very confusing to many. General Walter explains all this in a document ...

Spring - 1862 The first winter of the war is over and the Confederacy still hangs on. The blockade is having its effect and the price of sugar and ladies dresses are astronomical. Gen. McClellan makes an overland attack near Manassas and is defeated a second time by General Beauregard. Beauregard is...

As Kennon mentioned, I'm taking the Rebels for the first time ever in this game and that includes against the AI. All my experience has been with the Union. Utilizing the same general style as Kennon but not illustrated I will try and give some perspectives on Confederate play in direct contrast to ...

YORKTOWN ON THE TENNESSEE The Confederacy has achieved her Independence. The Lincoln administration has gone down to defeat, the soldier vote wasn't enough. The Northern States had completely rejected the war by this late date. As an added insult W.T. Sherman's army was forced to surrender on the ba...

I'm all for Ernie's suggestion. Visiting the alternate site and seeing all those different message boards is extremely confusing. If you wanted to discuss for example 'The Battle of Chancellorsville' and wanted maximum exposure, where would you post? Army of the Potomac, Army of Shenandoah etc... I ...

Gentlemen, please excuse my ignorance. I don't want to 'cut down' anyone's effort in furthering our computer war gaming hobby. I have visited the notso's alternate site and never could understand the point of it. It seems to be a bunch of 'message boards' divided into various modules like "Army of t...

The Union made a slight comeback with the capture of Port Royal. Grant's army moved up the coast with an able assist by the Navy. Grant was always good with combined operations and he is doing the same in this game. In the west the Union control of the rivers is a huge advantage that I will have to ...

June 1864 Grant's army made a push in to the interior from Savannah but General Taylor pushed him back to the coast. This month saw a lot of activity on the Confederates part. They launched five major offensives in Kentucky and Tennessee. Thank goodness the Union were able to repel the important one...

May 1864 Well, this is the month that the Union has got to use to make their big push to recover. Not one single commander got initiative! The Union boat was sinking anyway but to have your commanders just sit there and not plug the holes is disgraceful. Lincoln is on the verge of a nervous breakdow...

Winter 1863-1864 The Union is not getting initiative and as a result armies are not on the move. The confederates aren't getting much either but as I have said before, they don't have to move, the Union does. It's the winter of the Cavalry raids and repairing track as fast as the Rebs can bust it. T...

Hey Al: Yeah! I like the game too. In fact, I say it is the best Strategic Game on the American Civil War out there, and is likely to be so for quite some time. I have played about 10 games now against the Confederate AI and have not beaten it yet. Of course, I'm using AI economy so I may just have ...
