Since turning to the HPS games more and more, the one thing I really miss is the hand drawn maps of the BG games. Just got back into playing some of the older games recently and I stumbled across something odd that I hadn't noticed before.

On BG Chickamauga, open one of the Murfreesboro scenarios and view the 3D zoom in map screen. Go and look at hex 67,76. What is it? There's definitely something very queer going on! It looks like the entire command staff of the Army of Tennessee dancing naked around a bubbling cauldron [:0] I thought maybe I'd been playing too late into the night with the bottle of single malt for company. [|)]

Are there any more little surprises like this littering the Battlefields [?]

Cool! But now that my curiosity is piqued, I will waste a prodigious amount time hunting for them! I suppose it would take the fun out of it if you told us the hex coordinates.
