I had +7 Grant, Ratio and OOS There are rolls more important than others and moment more importante, like the luck in the first turns of the previous game, while all my luck in winning the battle in KY/OH was clearly futile because the game was over And before the fourth large battles, with the DC icing on the cake, plus this one. Honestly I don't know what to do vs something like that. Discarders are not that much help if you nail all the really important rolls... |

You would of only had a +5 in combat, my interception was very important you would have to roll a 4+ to kill my Army, I was very angry! |

Your previous interception was not important because at 5/6 I could have destroyed your army This roll value was 13 SW and your army destroyed, now I am fucked. Very very angry now |

#103: 3 / Seven Days/Chattanooga Either player may move 2 SPs using Strategic Movement from the same space using rail connections only (10 space maximum) to the same space with a General who is then activated and must attempt to enter a space with at least one or more enemy SPs or fort.

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.

I see where you were confused . You read " a Union naval move is conducted from a single union controlled port or coastal fort space as if the union-controlled doesn't apply to the coastal fort space. It does as does "from a single". He would have written it this way if it didn't " a Union naval move is conducted from a single coastal fort space or a Union-controlled port. |

Message from Union: Yes I agree on that, but the fact that are two different options 1) single Union-controlled port or 2) coastal fort space (which are ports and an LOC is not required it means in the second space the control of the space is not necessary, otherwise it's back to 1)... Anyway if I just sent Buell do this Activate Hooker with 4 SP 1-3 Johnstown, leave 1, n3 4 Pittsburgh, pick McDowell and 3, n6 5-8 Strasburg IF you don't agree Actvivate Hooker with 1 1 Harribsurg, pick 1, n2 2-4 Pittsburg, pick all but 1 and McDowell, n6 5-8 Strasburg |

You will control the port at the end of the turn or when you expend a card to flip it, until then It remains a CSA Coastal controls fort. |

Actually Looking at 6.11 I don't think I am forbidden to go from Fort Gadson to Columbus with Buell 6.11 PROCEDURE: Naval movement is conducted from any single Union-controlled port or coastal fort space (which are ports and an LOC is not required) into any other port or coastal fort (either side’s control). Port spaces on rivers are included within this definition But maybe it's my interpretation but it says from fort coastal spaces, not from USA controlled coastal spaces, becasue they always have LOC |
