I did move all 5 SPs into the Army of Tennessee. You can see that there are no extra SPs where these 5 originated from. This is a Vassal annoyance. When I decremented your Strategic Rail from 7 to 6, Vassal also moved the Tennessee strength marker (since they were "stacked together") down to 6, which I didn't notice. |

Couple of Corrections I think. First You put McClelland's Reinforcement in the AOP making it 6. McClelland is in the AOC so your reinforcements should have been 9 SP in the AOC in DC to 11 and none in the AOP still 5 Your SR you sent 1 SP to Harpersferry/Manassas/Frederick, Since the CSA holds Harpersferry with 1 SP don't you mean Chambersburg where Rosencrans has 5 SP in the Fort. Also 2 SP DC (to 4?? should be to 6) DC started with 11 See note above and send out 3 to 8, removing 2 mover makes it 6, 1 more to pittsburg makes it 5. I have the AOP ending with 3 and the AOC ending with 5. You can readjust as you have 2 SR left CSA SR 1 Norfolk now 0 to AOW 11 1 St Marks now 1 to AOW 12 2 Columbus GA now 0 to AOT 9 1 Weldon now 1 to AOT 10 1 Little Rock now 1 to AOT 11 1 Vicksburg now 0 to AOT 12 Where does Hooker go. |

Yes I did not have my thoughts together. You're right you had enough SR and troops to just do what you did as a short cut. The key decision was in side or out side of the Washington Pocket (sounds like a WWII game). I could have assumed, but I hate doing that because I always don't know what the other person is really going to do. You're up in both games. |

Except as originally written, it was illegal :-) So, that made the first decision whether I wanted to reinforce the DC area or outside DC. BTW, Army of the West is at 13 Pleasanton to Coshocton |

By the way if I had thought of it you could have accomplished your move as you originally wrote it just in a Legal way, but I was not sure where you were going to put your troops. |

So where are you putting the Eastern 4 SP, In Gettysburg and SR to DC, or some where else. In PA. Then they are on the RR and can go anywhere. |

Let's start my comments again. If you put the 4 SP in Gettysburg you can't SR them to Frederick, and Baltimore. SR is By Rail only Gettysburg does not have a Railroad (Yet). |

I hate the auto texting in ACTs. Make that 3 campaigns are hard to use in one turn. And you can put your 4 SP in the last in Gettysburg and SR them to either army. |

Yes 3 campaigns in one turn hard use. Rod you can't put your 4 SP in the east in DC. But I guess you could put them in DC and SR them to DC I just looked at your SR total and you have the SR. Wish I could have occupied Gettysburg or your could not have done that. Rule 10.31 If Washington is held by the Union and it can trace a LOC via rail connections off the north map edge, the Union player receives 8 SPs in Washington. If the above condition cannot be met then the Union player receives 4 SPs in any friendly- controlled space in PA, DE or NJ free of Confederate SPs. DC is not in PA, ED, or NJ. It says nothing about having a LOC, but Gettysburg does. |

Your Union reinforcements are down 4 for captured capitals, and the east only gets 4 for no rail connection to Washington. Sending you my end of turn file. |
