John, Use whatever you want. If you are referring to the AoJ spreadsheet on the Petersburg page, you probably just want to take the entire Union OOB file. The AoJ-specific thing was just a way for me to try to make sense of the major organizational changes happening between mid-May and mid-June 1864...

Dirk, The Army Official Records and the Navy Official Records are THE source. All Civil War research starts there. My dream is to own both sets some day. -Brett Schulte HPS Playtester ACW Campaign Games Design Center: http://www.brettschulte.net/ACWCGDC/index.html My Civil War Book Collection: http:...

Bob, I may purchase audio tapes of Foote's books if they are available. I drive a long way to work every day so that might be a nice alternative to the talk radio nonsense so prevalent in the morning. -Brett Schulte HPS Playtester ACW Campaign Games Design Center: http://www.brettschulte.net/ACWCGDC...

David, It's been a long time since I last read Foote, but I enjoyed his books greatly. I think it's probably time I revisited Shelby Foote, but my limited time available on a daily basis means it'll take me probably a year to read all three volumes. That sounds like a blog project to me... -Brett Sc...

Thanks for the comments guys. I'm glad to see some people enjoy these. I enjoy writing them too, if only because I have written comments on how I felt about a book at a given moment in time. It'll be interesting going back to read some of these books 5-10 years down the road. P.S. I think a game cov...

Phil, JT had no control over the rights. Talonsoft (now Take 2) held the rights and sold them to Matrix. They've hired John on to upgrade the original source code. He's still continuing on with the HPS games as well. -Brett Schulte HPS Playtester ACW Campaign Games Design Center: http://www.brettsch...
