American Civil War Game Club (ACWGC)

Despite my frequent moaning that would suggest the opposite [:(!]...I AM a great fan of these games we play and despite any misgivings, it HAS been my intention to eventually get hold of all the games (Well, not ALL the HPS titles [:0]...just the ACW campaign ones!) and today I finally ordered the last 3 (Chancellorsville, Franklin & Vicksburg) from NWS online to give me the full collection of 11. My finger was poised on the mouse button to "confirm purchase" for about an hour...but I couldn't help it and my pathetic attempts at resistance crumpled in the face of temptation. [xx(][V]
I really don't want to hear that HPS will be releasing Campaign "New York draft riots"...or Campaign "Gen. Hood gets kicked by his Horse" anytime soon and would greatly appreciate it if you would all endeavour to keep any news of the next release from me...I would be much obliged. [:D]

There, you see, Jim! It wasn't such a painful thing to do afterall, was it?

I will update your Ordnance file immediately!

Jim,

Congrats on a finally achieving a full weapons load!

This is great news indeed! Murphy's Law states that we'll have a new game released on Friday October 2nd just because of you![:D]

Keeping my fingers crossed for you![;)]

Yours,

General Wilkes,
"Campaign New York Draft Riots"
that was priceless.
I think they should include with that one: "Campaign Richmond Bread Riots" (dibs on the mob of angry women!)

They're here...they're here! [:D] The postman has just squeezed them through the letterbox. Installing now...patches all pre-downloaded and ready to go. Additional music files as per my usual set-up...'Tweak' all the graphics to get them looking just how I like them to look (If I can remember what goes where)...

...and I've already got a challenge to a scenario on Chancellorsville waiting for my attention!

I was looking forward to whupping the damn Yankee AI withthose draft rioters (After all it would have been a more even match since the draft rioters were Yankees too.....I think it would be one hell of a running contest......As for General Hood's horse, well since he was a Southern horse, I know it wouldn't even be a challenge to whup the Yankees with him......
