Opinions on this please Gentlemen, is my behaviour acceptable or not? Playing as Union in a HPS Gettysburg scenario. I have 3 dismounted Cavalry Regiments moving into position to assault a single Reb Infantry Regiment (in line) defending a stream hexside. The Reb is disrupted and stacked with a lead... |

Further to earlier discussion on this thread, can I have opinions on this? My enemy captures my guns---My enemy spikes my guns---I recapture my guns---I re-crew my guns---I try to move my guns(to get away from enemy units arriving soon nearby) BUT: Spiked guns cannot move?!!! I thought spiking invol... |

Since turning to the HPS games more and more, the one thing I really miss is the hand drawn maps of the BG games. Just got back into playing some of the older games recently and I stumbled across something odd that I hadn't noticed before. On BG Chickamauga, open one of the Murfreesboro scenarios an... |

Just started a HPS Gettysburg Campaign. Both myself and my opponent have the PBEM encryption box checked but we are not being asked for passwords when we exchange files. I am fairly sure we have opened the campaign game correctly, but something is definitely wrong?! Anyone else had this experience? ... |

Union officer looking for Rebel opponent on HPS Corinth or Gettysburg. I quite like the look of one of the Davis bridge scenario's, but am open to suggestions? Please send a courier if you want a good beating!! [:p]

I tried Sir, I did try! The link just won't work for me, I don't know if the problem is my end or the website? I did see a post somewhere recently where Gen. Miller said there had been problems with his site. I'll remember you're name Gen. Bastiani. Another Reb to settle a personal score with...mayb... |

If someone could please send me Ken Miller's HPS Corinth Leaders.bmp and Units.bmp? I would be very much obliged. I had them and lost them and can't seem to find them anywhere to download them again! and Ken Miller's site seems to be out of action recently? [?] Capt. Jim Wilkes, 2nd Brigade, Cavalry... |

I'm slowly purchasing the HPS titles one by one. But if I can get 5 for 3 then I may just go mad and splash out! If I get all of them eventually I hope that they will finally unlock the game so I can mod myself a copy of the BG Prairie Grove battlefield and make a version of that scenario at last [:... |

Well, after being very impressed initially, I don't think it's quite as good as I'd hoped. Somehow i't just feels a bit 'dead' really. Certainly the A.I. is the most competent i've seen in a realtime game of this kind. I enjoy leading just a Brigade in the bigger scenario's but there's still not muc... |

I've downloaded the free demo but I find it very complicated. Just too complicated for my little brain to enjoy. I've had to have several attempts at the basic tutorial to try to get into it. I may yet play the demo to death and eventually get used to managing the game, there is a huge amount of det... |

Day one of a 3 day battle at HPS Gettysburg, I race a Battery of 3" Rifled and another of Napoleons to Little Roundtop as the afternoon get's late. I want guns up on the summit as it offers good vantage of the general area. But hang on, HPS Gettysburg map has got rough hexes on top of Little Roundto... |

I hadn't heard of it, just stumbled across it really, but I think i'm quite impressed [?] I checked all the forum's here, but cant find any mention of it, did it create a fuss in the club when it was released?
