Smith.
1. Richmond, p/u 6SP.
2-7. Wheeling
8. Pittsburg.
>>>

Smith is in Petersburg, and moving 8 spaces can only get him to Wheeling. Usually when you rolled the dice, the movement and result stand. But I will allow you to once again re-do your whole move, since you were under the assumption that you can attack Pitts.

Please count carefully in the future. We all hope to move farther than what our troops can do. :-)

EFFECTS: 1. Union Blockade reduced by one (cannot become greater than 4 for the remainder of the game). 2. Union -2 SP Reinforcements for the remainder of the game (Union choice). 3. Union SW reduced by 10. Remove from deck if event is played. If card is played as an OC or discarded re-shuffle deck at end of the Strategy Phase.

Ok, thanks I'll do that
65 1/13/2025 2:42:00 PM Summer 1861 Union Message sure, no problem...
you can re-do your move or even take back your card and do something else.
64 1/13/2025 2:37:00 PM Summer 1861 Confederate Message Oh, sorry! I'm a bit rusty and I have not played in a year and just played a bunch of games. May I redo my card then? My plan was going for DC and gamble it.
63 1/13/2025 2:34:00 PM Summer 1861 Union Message oh I see... you did not know that CSA cannot enter DC from Manassas...
1st, there is the Union naval control over Potomac River.
2nd, there is a fort in DC, across the blue bar ...i.e. which is why Union cannot cross into Dover from Paducah.

so CSA can only enter DC from either Frederick or Baltimore.

52 1/12/2025 6:59:00 PM Summer 1861 Union Message well, I set up in a way that Union has overwhelming odds... the only 50/50 battle was when ASJ retreated and usa only got +3.... which is why it's not ideal to spread out 1 sp all over if you cannot get them back in time... the opponent can easily defeat each in detail.
51 1/12/2025 6:48:00 PM Summer 1861 Confederate Message I guess I needed some luck, but four rolls, all lost :)

St Marks is not yet a blockade port, until you play the event card.... so just change it to Savannah

Memphis is in TN, and you already placed 1 sp in Dover TN... so just change it to Corinth MS.

since you railed away both sp anyway, no harm done... just for future reference.

Confederate Player may move 2 SPs using Strategic Movement from the same space using rail connections only (5 space maximum) to the same space with a Confederate General who is then activated and must attempt to enter a space with at least one or more Union SPs or fort. OR play this card as an automatic 2 space interception. Intervening space must be friendly controlled and free of enemy SPs. The intervening space may be the one just exited by the moving enemy force. No Generals or SPs may be picked up or dropped off during the intercept.
