I was perusing the Vicksburg scenarios for a game to play and coming upon "Champion Hill to Big Black Bridge", I noticed that the Union received reinforcements of rebel Brig General W. Baldwin (behind the rebel lines of course). this certainly seems like an error.

I tried it as the Union and no such thing for me, tried it as the reb and it was there, sure you were in as the Union.

Yes, I made use. I was using the Head-to-head mode to check out both sides. try it that way.

Okay I started in the normal pbem mode as the Union and sure enough, it listed Baldwin as the union reinforcement but as I advanced it a few turns and checked it, it had disappeared. wierd.

I can understand the Reb reinforcements for the union - you boys need all the help you can get[:D]

Does that mean if I challenge you to a Champion Hill battle, you will give me Baldwin's men?[;)]

Thanks for the offer, but I have six games on the go already and another about to start - but I will put you on my dance card[:)]

If you haven't done it already- report that one to HPS, please -I'm sure they'd want to have a look at it.

Maybe to clarify- is this in the scenario description? I'd noticed some that seemed to be in need of editing. (For instance the Confederates attempting to break out to the southeast (of Vicksburg) claims that the exit hex(es) are on the north part of the map-which isn't true- the one hex is on the east edge at about the middle of the mapboard.

But in terms of actually being in the scenario that way, it looks like that is ok, unless I missed something' I checked all 5 of the Champion Hill scenarios to be sure.
