So, let me get this straight. In the JTS/HPS system artillery ammunition depletion is decided by the result of rounds fired from the total amount of rounds available (optional "artillery ammo by cannon"); infantry ammunition depletion is decided by a chance algorithm? Further, artillery op... |

Well, let's think about this for a minute. Textbook deployment of a battery stresses the space between guns to minimize the density of target presented to counter battery fire. That doesn't necessarily prohibit the deployment of more guns within the same space! We've all read of ACW actions in which... |

Officers of the Union Military Group, ACWGC! Two members of the ACWGC come to mind when I think about who may have the most intuitive, comprehensive understanding and grasp of these wonderful simulations that we all play. One of them is a member of the Confederate Military Group, the other of the Un... |

If the JTS Campaign series ever added two types of forested hexes, maybe dense like the Wilderness and modest like the East Woods, what kind of parameter data would you allocate to each :?: And while I'm postulating some changes, shouldn't we be able to, if given enough time, equipment and material,... |

Yes, its those road/trail hairpin turns in the forest hexes that can cause big trouble for an unwary cavalry unit. And, Larry, that was a five-man cribbage contest that was set up by Cam McOmish on the Baton Rouge riverboat, a $10,000 winner-take-all affair. There was a place set for you, but you di... |

From the research I've done the Rosecrans name is pronounced as the common name of the flower joined by a plural of the first part of the berry! The general, after he finished his public career, moved to the Los Angeles area , where today both Rosecrans Avenue, a major east-west thoroughfare, and Fo... |

This is an interesting proposal by Gen. Mallory, one, I suspect, that may have been generated in part by the current, unverified state of the CSA OOB. And I believe that David should be complimented on his effort to direct the club's attention of how to properly regard those members who continually ... |

Ernie, how is it that as the Club President you looked the other way when Gen. Miller decided to re-activate his commission? Now it appears we will be saddled with his traipsing around the forums, dragging that oversized saber of his and noisily making a spectacle of himself in an attempt to jokingl... |

And a further 43,5% are lost afterwards. And for these, if it is allowed, I would request General Meyer to provide the combat records. Afaik these were 20 officers of entered but also left the club in the last 5 years for various reasons. I can't imaging them being successful but leaving, I think t... |
