| #1 and #2, re melees, are fine with me. #3 about the AI, whatever makes the AI better. #4 . . . Having to rest that much is not historical. That would equal a five minute rest every twenty minutes, or 25%. Stonewall Jackson historically was known for resting his troops 10 minutes every hour, max, an... |

| In woods to the west of Gettysburg, in an HPS campaign scenario there, MG Abner Doubleday's division was attacking Rebs. Abner was a good three hexes behind his meleeing regiments, yet when the Rebs were defeated in melee and routed they routed THROUGH my Union lines, passed right over MG Doubleday ... |

In the case you're referring to, a player is given credit for exiting at a particular hex (usually equal to what the exiting spite would be worth in casualty math). I'm talking about s... |

| Thank you, sir. That makes sense. Actually, if one thinks about it, there would be a quasi-penalty for removing units to 'save' them: the resulting dearth of troops would make it easier for the opponent to capture any remaining Objective Hex locations, etc. Brig Gen Dwight McBride 1st Brigade ("The ... |

| I quote from the club rules: "3.3.2.3 Cabinet Secretaries. The Cabinet Secretaries will participate and vote in Cabinet decisions and perform other duties as assigned by the Club President."

| The only thing I would change about the current system is to give the option of "Don't Resupply" to infantry regiments, so smaller/worse/fatigued units wouldn't use supplies I'd rather save for better regiments . . . With artillery, you can always limber them to prevent their using up artillery ammo... |

My experience has showed that infantry, cavalry, artillery all receive the same penalty: 10 marks per turn . . . regardless of distance traveled or daytime allowance.
