I dropped him when I moved the AoP from DC to Manassas, that's how it is written in the vassal log. |

Shit, I'm looking at the log and I didn't say that! :( I'm still fighting with ACTS! I left McDowell in DC to make up for having to bring McClellan to the AoP due to his higher political will, but I didn't say that in the log, sorry. If you let me rectify this, you can change your move. If not, it's okay, it was my mistake. |
137 | 1/20/2025 10:51:00 AM | Spring 1862 | Confederate | Message |
I don't see that you dropped McDowell in DC. As far as I see, he was with AoP in Annapolis, then after you attacked me in Frederick, AoP retreated to DC and picked up McClellan. If you think that you did drop McDowell in DC, that's okay but then I'll do something else with my turn. Let me know. |
