So,
As, I am unable to post in the regular MDT and regular opponent request forum, until I graduate from the UMA, this is my only option. So, here it goes. I'm currently in the UMA with a few weeks left of training with General Derald Riggs. Once, I've graduated and finished training I have an unusual plan/request.
What I'd like to do, is to find a Rebel player with about the same level of experience and training (and ultimately dedication 8) ) to meet me out in the Western Theater and Play HTH EVERY MAJOR HISTORICAL BATTLE IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER WITH ME, beginning with the Ozarks?? I think. This would include titles from obviously Ozark, Corinth, Shiloh, Chickamauga, Vicksburg, Franklin and Atlanta ( Not sure if this one is considered Western theater :?: )

If you've ever done this before (So you can tell me exactly how it works :lol: ), have any thoughts on this or are even interested in taking me up in such an offer please feel free to:

PM me or Email me: Noah(dot)Perrotti(at)AOL(dot)Com

8) 8)

It is a long process. Especially trying it with one member.

You have to find someone that is as committed as you are. You might expect to settle with having several opponents over the course of the process.

Quite often, though, you find yourself playing one scenario vs an opponent and then continuing with that same opponent for some time.

I have one (or more) opponent that we have been playing scenarios (not in any particular order or game) for several years.

You won't know until you try.

Noah if you need a spreadsheet with all the historical battles of the civil war listed by date and by HPS title give me a pm or post here. I have it all set up for the Red Badge of Courage Tournament :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

General Suh,

Your hard work within the spread sheets of these battles in historical order would surely be nothing less than a blessing for a poor novice soul like myself 8) , Sir McOmish. If it wouldn't be too much of a hassle, could you please email me your hard work?

My email address Suh is:

Noah(dot)Perrotti(at)AOL(dot)Com

Forever indebted to you General.

Respectfully yours.

PM Sent as well, General. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Good luck with this. I tried something similar with the Panzer Campaign series starting with Normandy 44, my opponent never got past the first game.

Ned Simms and I played every historical battle from the HPS Ozark disk - had a hoot - I think Ned came out overall winner, but who cares it was all about having fun. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
