I was watching the festivities through my field glasses from the top of that hill back there, but there was so much glare off of all the gold braid and brass that I couldn't make things out very well. So I decided to come down for a closer look, but it appears that everyone's already left and return... |

What I meant to say was, does the defending mounted unit add its strength to the melee defense, or it is completely discluded? General Jos. C. Meyer Commander, Army of the Tennessee Union Army Chief of Staff http://home.comcast.net/~josephcmeyer/pwpimages/Avatar%2090%20GIF%281%29.gif |
