| I think this is intentional. I have seen several scenarios where some reinforcements (both sides) have a 10% probability while others have 100%. If it's any consolation to you, the chance that these guys will arrive within two hours (6 turns) is better than 50%. The chance that they'll be on the fie... |

| Gentlemen of the Club, For compelling real life reasons, Gen. Antony Barlow is stepping down as commander of the Union Western Theater. This is a sad day for the Union. Antony has been a mainstay of the army and the club for longer than I can remember. He is a natural leader of men, a thorough admin... |

| My usual compromise is that units may retreat over the board edge when they are not actually engaged with the enemy. But to slip away over a board edge out of a nearly complete encirclement doesn't strike me as very realistic. In fact though with the huge maps of the HPS games I haven't actually enc... |

| Host sends a turn (.trn) file to the non-host. It contains all the events of the completed turn. Based on that the non-host gives his orders and returns an orders (.ord) file. The host of course has the same two files for his own turn and orders, only he doesn't need to send them. The turn is resolv... |

| I guess we're all used to units routing in the most nonsensical way--usually straight away from the own lines & into the teeth of the enemy's defenses--(and then refusing to come back, claiming they "can only move away from the enemy" when that's exactly what they're declining to do). How refreshing... |

| While club rules technically allow it, personally I normally don't claim the higher victory level, especially not when the game was still young. Normally I simply file a draw, and a victory only when the game was already decided for good, or when I get the feeling my opponent abandoned it only to av... |
