I like your same side fog of war idea too. And I think adding couriers should be easy. In the newer Nappy games each side has an abundance of Aide-de-camps that could serve that purpose. Major General Jon Thayer Old North State Divison 3/III Army of Northern Virginia jonathanthayer@bellsouth.net |

In the Napoleonic games there is an optional rule in which if a skirmisher is blocking retreat, the retreating unit will overrun it. What if something like that was in place. Maybe something like: In order to block retreat the blocking unit has to be at least 50% of the retreaters strength or the bl... |

I am currently playing a multiplayer Gettysburg scenario. The game is one of the "meeting engagement" scenarios so unlike a historical scenario where you have a general idea what enemy forces you are facing, in this one I don't know what commands the enemy units I can see belong to. It seems to me t... |

I am of the opinion that there is not enough small arms ammunition available, at least for the Rebs at HPS Gettysburg. This is a problem with all the BG Civil War games. Running out of ammo was a realistic occurance in Civil War battles but there was always a supply at Corps or Army level. I recall ... |

I would appreciate it if you would send them to me. I went to the SZO and messed up by downloading BG icons. I also checked Volcano Man and all I could find was Corith.

I had spent a lot of effort customizing my games using the various download sites and then my computer crashed. I have been able to redo some of the stuff I want but I can seem to find a page that has unit icons. Somewhere I had found some that replaced the photo icons for Gettysburg with some that ... |

I have just completed the long single battle version of the campaign and it ended early with a Confederate victory. Both armies are very fragile due to low morale so either side has the opportunity of victory. I found that it was very hard to win melees and with increased frequency of disruption and... |
