For you newer members who are not aware of it the ACWGC has a website that provides a wealth of information on the HPS game system files. Specifically how the pdt and oob files are set up and how the pdt can be modified as well as a primer to get you started with the Scenario Editor. You can browse the information at

http://home.comcast.net/~acwco_engineering/

For the older members Robert Frost, of the Norris-Frost Team that created the Battleground game mods so many of us tried, has released what I think is an exhaustive study of the HPS system as well as several pdt files he has created that look like they might provide a more historical flavor to the system. He has provided the information for posting at the Engineering site and it has recently been added.

As always, excellent work by Ken Miller! Rovert Frost's HPS additions are rich in depth and very complete, a welcome addition to the amount of information already present at the ACWCO Engineering site!
