Bank's reaction
851 6/19/2022 6:42:00 PM Turn 8 Jeremy R Message Banks is thinking of changing his name to Xenophon.

Nope, I live in Golspie:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golspie

It's about halfway between Inverness and John O'Groats (which most people think is the most northerly point on the mainland, but it's really Dunnet Head).

Isle of Skye is off the west coast (and south of here). It's about a 2.5 hours drive from here to Kyle of Lochalsh.

All yours.

846 6/19/2022 5:49:00 PM Turn 8 Shannon M Message I think everybody wants to be Banks now. He should drop out as a general and run against Lincoln.

That allows you to make the initiative roll for the next impulse.

814 6/12/2022 5:31:00 PM Turn 8 Jeremy R Message Sorry, but the Union SP came in from 5204, so the only hex Old Jubilee could react to is 5306. Back to you.

812 6/12/2022 4:14:00 PM Turn 8 Shannon M Message There used to be better content for this game on CSW but I think the group split when GMT's The U.S. Civil War was released.
811 6/12/2022 4:01:00 AM Turn 8 Jeremy R Message Since your decision on what happens in 5305 has no effect on the Union impulse, please go ahead and retreat or resolve combat and then roll for initiative.

Message from Jeremy R:
Don't often have a reason to attack with 1 SP, but there's always a time to cut cards with the Devil:

1 SP vs 1 SP (5306) at 1-1

USA (attacker) uses first D6
CSA (defender uses second D6

807 6/6/2022 3:14:00 PM Turn 8 Jeremy R Message The turn of big differences - CSA gets the nod this time.

I do look on the CSW forum, but it's difficult to find stuff and not much changes, so it's not very often.

As you may have guessed, I like Steven Wright.

Anyways, have to get up in the morning, so time to climb the wooden hill...
800 6/5/2022 7:20:00 PM Turn 8 Shannon M Message Thanks. Yeah, I'm playing him again as the csa as he feels I am a better Union player. We've played against each other about 3 times.

I also played Pete Walsh who may have been the best player on consim. Lost to him all the time and then beat him in our last game before he went over to the us civil war.

796 6/5/2022 7:16:00 PM Turn 8 Jeremy R Message Probably got much the same reaction to be boring as to your modelling claim.


795 6/5/2022 7:16:00 PM Turn 8 Shannon M Message It sounds like a house rule for the module. Let me look it over.
794 6/5/2022 7:11:00 PM Turn 8 Jeremy R Message The -1 casualty rule is immediately below the table on Tables > Leaders > Leader Promotion & Casualty > Historical Variant Leaders > Variant LP&C. It's also on the 190330 Standard Game Varaint (sic) page.

Can't find it in the third-edition rules, though.
793 6/5/2022 6:59:00 PM Turn 8 Shannon M Message Remind me about the -1 casualty rule. Is that in the module or the PDF? Seems like the creator has his own house rules.
792 6/5/2022 6:56:00 PM Turn 8 Shannon M Message Kind of when I am first dating women and they ask me what I do. I like to say I'm an ass model sometimes to get a laugh lol
791 6/5/2022 6:55:00 PM Turn 8 Shannon M Message What do people say about you being the 134th? lol
790 6/5/2022 6:55:00 PM Turn 8 Shannon M Message Did you agree to do the dropbox survey?
789 6/5/2022 6:54:00 PM Turn 8 Shannon M Message Dave T. was my first opponent online for this game. He thought I was a noob and was surprised when I beat him as
a new player. He thinks I am one of the best players in the circuit which is tiny. I used to be better when I had more time in between jobs lol
788 6/5/2022 6:52:00 PM Turn 8 Jeremy R Message Used to describe myself as the 134th most boring man in the country (the most boring man in the country sounds too interesting).

Question for you: should we be using the -1 casualty roll modifier if a force is eliminated? Don't think it has come up until this turn, but it would have affected McDowell and Jackson.

Anyway, still being boring...

Yep, saw Dave T's reply. Have you ever played him at TCW? I know he still shows up on VASSAL's list of live players fairly regularly as well as the BGG forums.
781 6/5/2022 6:57:00 AM Turn 8 Jeremy R Message Worn out after that burst of activity, the Union leadership contents itself with enrolling reinforcements.

USA (attacker) uses first D6

760 6/1/2022 2:38:00 PM Turn 8 Jeremy R Message And, now the bombshell: have just realized Jackson couldn't react away from 5209 to 5210 because it would mean crossing a navigable river that's blocked by the Union boats at 5310/5311. So, to keep the game moving, I'm going to resolve the combat in 5209 - let me know if you object.


759 6/1/2022 2:29:00 PM Turn 8 Jeremy R Message Posted a question about the off-map ports on BGG at lunchtime. One guy has replied already, though am not sure I understand it.
