Just sent you an email about this Richard. WDS does have a file called PDT Explained in their Manual folder within the game though. |

If the Confederate government copied the four-year terms of the US Government for their president, would Jefferson Davis have won a second term? Does he run for re-election in the fall of 1864 or do the events of the war in the summer of 64 cause him to lose support and be replaced? Would he be opp... |

I am curious though regarding your take on Steam. WDS have chosen, for their own reasons, not to put their games on Steam, as stated previously. They could put them on Steam I don't doubt should they so wish, allowing of the financial implications to the company, but my question is.......Why would ... |

Good gracious... thirteen years later... I guess the question is whether or not things have gotten better, worse, or remain the same for our genre of video games? My hopes of seeing these games sold in stores (even in the checkout impulse purchase area) were never realized. Now with the demise of ph... |

I think I am comfortable saying that Glory should be included in just about everyone's "must see" list. Watching it the other day (again) I was reminded just how good it is. The movie seems to have aged very well and may have actually improved with it. The film captures numerous actors in... |

I understand your points completely and generally agree. I don't think the rule needs to be reworked though only because, just as you experienced, players in our Club are generally fair-minded and will appreciate the "realities of the situation." I can also think of numerous scenarios whi... |

Sirs, I am happy to announce the promotion of Lt. Gen. Steve Griffith to the rank of full General. Steve took over the ANV when I left that position and has done an excellent job "admining" it. Congratulations, sir on that fourth star :mrgreen: https://static.wixstatic.com/media/7b5c37_5f... |

Found out this piece of trivia scanning the internet. After the Battle of Shiloh in 1862, soldiers reported a peculiar phenomenon: glow-in-the-dark wounds. More than 16,000 soldiers from both armies were wounded during the battle, and neither Union nor Confederate medical personnel were prepared fo... |

I received a most welcome email from Karl today! The fine gentlemen was incommunicado as he was felled by a nasty infection after a trip to North Africa and was on bedrest for the past few months. He expects to be back in the saddle in a few weeks and will be rejoining our ranks. That is excellent ... |

You can go to "Modes" on the top toolbar and click on "Place PBEM Termination Bid." If your opponent accepts then the scenario ends and you move on to the next one. It is permissible, in a Campaign game, to remove units from the edges of the map to "retreat." If you hav... |

Gentlemen, As you may be aware, we have not heard from the AoT AC Karl McEntegart for a few months. We've hit the point where we need to move on with things and replace him as AC for the AoT. Karl was/is an excellent administrator and he is very much missed around our campfires. Let's hope he finds... |
