Gen McBride, Is this the eulogy you're preparing to read to your army after our current manuever?[:D] If so, it's quite moving. So moving in fact I'm heading off to the water closet...[8D] Seriously thanks. That was quite interesting. Do you know when that was written? Recently or years ago? Lt. Boy... |

From what I've read this happened somewhat often during the war (see Jackson's seige at Harpers Ferry). If this feature did... |

Sirs, Most of my gaming experience with HPS games has been with individual battles. I have started a couple of campaign games and the first battles are getting ready to draw to a close.

...still have the slows.[:D] I posted over a week ago and still haven't had a yank accept my challenge to a game/campaign on the Peninsula!

This topic may have already been discussed in the club in the past, if it has forgive me since I'm a newbie. But in your opinion which campaign game has the best selection of Civil War music: Corinth, Ozark, Franklin, Gettysburg, or now Peninsula? And why? I'm partial to the selections included with... |

Blue bellies, just got my copy of Peninsula past your blockade and am looking for someone from that fancy lookin army of yours to give it a go. I'm good with any of the options and parameters and can do 5-7 exchanges a week. A stand alone game or the entire campaign works for me. Just send a courier... |
