Shiloh will be applied early next month. I want to gather enough to justify a patch.
As for the other games, that will be up to John and the other designers. Doug is due for a patch very soon, but I don't know his schedule. After all, it took over five years to complete.

House rules will no longer be necessary. In Shiloh and soon the other games, neither leaders, supply wagons or limbered arty can be used to surround a unit to prevent retreats after a melee.

Thanks Pat, I'll try to make what changes I can, John likes to keep things "as is" for the most part in terms of graphics. But I can always add good pix to the file for more variety. Rich P.S. Yes I have that site in my favorites. I used it when designing Shiloh. The rebel gunboat are designed to lo... |

Mike--Thanks Walter- Hmmm strange??? They don't fire at all, or not enough in your opinion?? At any rate, that is not a designer's fixable problem, and it should be the same for all HPS games. Can you give examples of circumstance? Ken-- Thanks, I was aware of the flotilla cav, but not the other, I'... |

So far I've noted the following: 1) Engine patch regarding the ability to surround units with leaders and supply wagons. This has been fixed and will be including in the first patch 2) Incorrect nationality for supply... |

"boats" pre-existed Shiloh, but it did not function until Shiloh. NOTE: Changes for Campaign Shiloh 1.0 - Union mortar boats are introduced - Confederate gunboats are introduced - Gunboat stacking is limited to two per hex. - <b>Toggle boats now works.</b> Leaders must be stacked with boat unit. - A... |

I believe I mention it in the Campaign Notes file and at the beginning of each scenario that use boats. Don't forget to stack leaders with another type of unit. They cannot swim by themselves.

Thanks Brett, your website is really special.
BTW, why no war movie reviews or lists? Just the horror stuff is up.
Bill,
