One of the complaints that I have regarding the HPS American Civil War Campaign series is the lack of a playback for the final portion of the last turn of a campaign battle. If you are the first turn player in a campaign battle, you will not see your opponent's final move! Instead the game engine wisks you away into the next battle's pre-operational choices, leaving you mystified as to what exactly occurred on that final portion of the last turn. In some cases, although I have not experienced it, your opponent's final move could be the decisive difference in the battle. And if you are like me, you like to update and log the current strength of your units near the end of the battle to be able to more nearly and closely understand the adjustments which the game engine will perform for the next battle.
It would be great to have this flaw corrected in the next series update.
