For those hoping the game's AI will get smarter don't hold your breath[:D] waiting. Chess has only 6 different pieces for a total of 32 with rigid rules of movement on a 64 square board and took tens of thousands of man hours of programming over many years to become competitive. Our games have five pieces but number in hundreds each with multiple capacities moving on boards of over 100,000 hexes and each hex has parameters. I don't think they make a computer yet that could handle analyzing our games pass one move depth.[xx(]

Gary,
I'm glad you like them. I had a lot of fun playing PG and PR over and over in testing. btw, for the next update, I extended the Pea Ridge map about 3/4 of a mile on the bottom (east) edge. It reduces the scrunched look that you can get down there, aesthetically if not physically. I don't know when the update will be released as it depends on HPS and other things, but I am also waiting because I want to have all 3 (CC,CO, and CP) be released at the same time.

While they are smaller battle, Pea Ridge and Prarie Grove are my two favorite scenarios in any of these games, especially Pea Ridge. The Mad Scramble!

Good sized map for the forces involved, lots of covered terrain, and the ultimate question

"Where in creation are those rebs at????"
