Strategy, Tactics and weapons of the American Civil War

 Simple video explaining much of the mid 19th century battlefield.

More of the hidden greatness of Grant - as president this time.

 Worthy video to see, and Lawrence Wilkerson goes into some of the Grant Presidency.

Restart of a campaign project, forces assemble

 Many decades after starting with assembling some models, then stopping, changing occupations, marriage and three children, the restart of a project gets to a usable stage.

Forces assemble

 The stop-start of the earlier campaign has given way to having the tools needed to run any battle in the future.

With that aim, the Union forces for Bull Run (1861) have been assembled and mustered.

Full details HERE.

wonderful imagery

 The latest campaign has produced some battles.

a great image from the tabletop

More details about these battles and the mapping/game-system will be coming soon.

New attempt at a campaign

 Again there will be a new attempt at a campaign.

This time starting in 1861, with a new map and some different concepts.

Playing along again for me, though I did design a cyberboard gamebox for the game-master to use.

The map was designed by another player, I imported it and then did some pieces backs on the Napoleonic ones I did for Campaign of Nations.
