Mixed Org Penalty should be on every time. Paul will disagree with his dying breath but that's alright.  |

| Hi Rich, You are correct. In the new DOR you only register the game at its completion. One of the oddities in the old DOR was that, over time, many members never closed incomplete games. Therefore, a member might have started a game in 2015 and when you viewed their dossier it would display them as ... |

| Just a quick review of "Corinth 1862: Siege, Battle, Occupation" by Timothy B. Smith (2012). I've read other books by Smith in the past and had high hopes with this one. The siege of Corinth is not a very well-covered Civil War event and getting to learn more about it was a big reason I w... |

| Every member in the Club is listed in the Records as one of two things - Active or Inactive. This goes back to the creation of the old DOR in 2001. A member who is Active is someone who is currently in the Club and mustering. This includes all members whether they are new or old or in the Reserves o... |

| I agree with the statement: One of the chief reasons that people join and maintain membership in the ACWGC is to utilize our Opponent Finder. The Opponent Finder is available to only Active Members within the ACWGC. Another thing which is done on the forums is voting, and also simply making posts, ... |

| 1. There will no longer be a Leave of Absence or a Hospital category unless the GinC creates such a category (under 2.5.5) and even if it is created, if that absence lasts longer than 3 months then that member is moved to the Inactive List? 2. I too consider the wording and location of 2.5.5 a bit ... |

| Offering 6 months until being made Inactive & Discharged would be generous I think. It'd allow someone who might be busy or ill enough time to get word out or reply to a muster call. Especially since we're not officially looking at a hospital or LoA status if the rules are adopted. I think 6 mo... |

The removal of the current Rule 2.1.3.1: 2.1.3.1: Fraudulent Enlistment is an enlistment by a former member while expelled, or by an individual already a member, or by a former member under an alias for the purpose of concealing past unacceptable disruptive be... |

| Gentlemen of the ACWGC, The ACWGC Cabinet is continuing to review the Club Rules as our Club matures and changes with the passage of time. The past year has seen a number of significant changes to the fabric of our Club - the closure of our old Department of Records for instance. But we have also o... |

| We do have a separate book forum but it's about as lively as an actual library, so I thought I'd post this here. I recently read, back to back, two books on the First Battle of Bull Run. The first was "Donnybrook" by David Detzer (2004) and the second was "The Early Morning of War&qu... |

You can only check each games version individually after opening it and looking under the drop down menu "Help" and then clicking on About.
As far as I know there is no other way. |

Thankfully we have access to medicine and treatments which were unthinkable to Civil War soldiers during the war. Last night I headed to my local hospital in Franklin, TN, due to a kidney ... |

| Campaign Games are notoriously confusing and hard to register properly. Honestly, you will save yourself a lot of time by just registering it as "Other" which is at the bottom of the DOR list of scenarios for each game. |
