So in this imaginary example JJ would go to Richmond, Smith to Columbus, Bragg to Fred. (But I actually put them all in Fred.) Let me know if any questions |

Request: 999-sided die x 3 843 822 604 Message from Confederate: So, this is **not my actual placement**, because I'm putting all my generals in Fredericksburg, but here's how it'd work if I wanted to put 1 in Richmond, 1 in Columbus KY, and 1 in Fredericksburg: JJ Smith Bragg Highest to Richmond, next to Columbus, lowest to Fred |

I'll put all my generals in Fredericksburg, actually But for general placement, list all the generals and set a 999- (or 99-) sided die for each one in an order, and say where the highest (or highest 3, or whatnot) will go, assigning all the places you're sending them to, then roll |

SM (and then I'll show you general placement): 1 Mobile - Columbus KY [2] 1 Tuscumbia - Fredericksburg [3] 1 Columbus GA - Fred [4] 1 Savannah - Fred [5] 2 Charleston - Fred [7] 1 Marion - Fred [8] |

Sorry, meant SP in Fredericksburg, not Manassas |

I did not receive the messages for ACTs about the SW and other items I only received your reinforcements. Speaking of reinforcements I have the AoP in Manasas wondering how you can place an SP there. Washington 8 SP (total of 9 SP in Washington) Bloomington IN has 6 SP Cairo IL 4 SP for a total of 5 SP Move 6 SP from Washington DC to AoP in Manasas VA AoP 7SP That was 6 Rail now have 9 rail left Rail 2 SP from Cairo to St. Louis Fremont (4 SP) Cairo 3 SP That will be all. How do we place Generals? |
| 35 | 1/3/2021 10:11:00 AM | Spring 1861 | Confederate | Message |
Yes, you now have PCs in all of WV, and Union SW is 107(+) |

I am back, mouth is still sore and the drugs really bring me down. A question; does not the USA now control West Virginia and US PC markers placed in Weston, Franklin and in the Control box? I am not sure but does the USA SW flip to + and 2 SW added for a SW of +107 for USA? |

If Commanding General is the only leader in an army, I think General Casualty can't take place |

Just to update you; my jaw is sore from the pulling and installing of the temp. cap and the new caps going on. Everything else went okay yesterday. On the 12th of January I will be getting a tooth pulled. Have a great New Year and a great gaming New Year. I hope that we have WBC in 2021. |

Thanks for the information I did not see rule 7.72 if the battle was a ratio lower than 3:1 and he was the only general in the army would the role for Casualties take place then? Here is the rest of my move: AoP leaves 1 SP in Winchester moves to Harpers Ferry (AoP 3 SP) moves to Frederick attacks Manasas Beauregard. AoP 3 SP |
| 23 | 12/27/2020 8:35:00 AM | Spring 1861 | Confederate | Message |
And AoP is 4 now |
| 22 | 12/27/2020 8:34:00 AM | Spring 1861 | Confederate | Message |
No leader casualty roll for McDowell, both because he had a force ratio of at least 3:1, and because he's commanding general of an army |
| 21 | 12/27/2020 6:28:00 AM | Spring 1861 | Union | Message |
I hope that you have had a great holiday. If I am correct there are 5 Union SP in Winchester, McDowell dies in the battle 0 SP in Harpers Ferry 1 in Frederick. |

So the leader dies. |

Request: 6-sided die x 1 2 Message from Union: I am unsure about this with the rolling of General Casualties part rule 7.7 says 'All generals (including Cavalry general(s) present (even if their rating was not used in the battle) unless exempted by an event or the commanding General of an Army..' I knew that this was bad after I had sent the move should have gone in with a smaller force. |

#105: 1 / Detached Cavalry Played prior to a battle against an army possessing one or more cavalry brigades. The ONLY effects are the Army’s Commanding General’s battle rating (offense or defense) is immediately reduced by 2 and no Cavalry general’s battle ratings may be used in the battle. The effects end at the conclusion of the battle. Cavalry generals are not available for casualty determination. OR: Place one PC marker in any space within four spaces (includes river connections) of a single cavalry brigade. The four space range many not be traced through Northeast Alabama. The space may not contain an enemy SP or fort, but may contain an Ironclad or Torpedoes. Message from Confederate: PC Frankfurt KY I think you just have to pick out the cards separately in VASSAL. ACTS and VASSAL can't really "speak" to each other |

#118: 3 / Mexican Supply Line Confederate player receives 2 SP in any friendly controlled Texas space (both SPs placed in the same space). The space does not need a LOC. The space may not contain Union SPs or forts. If no eligible space exists the SPs are lost. Message from Union: Place PC markers in Falmouth KY, Charleston WV Lwesisburg WV I see that Vassal allows for the cards to be used from ACTS how do you set up the game to do that or select the cards from the deck to be displayed in the Vassal file? |
