I did install a patch..1 point something and I am assuming that there was only one patch.<br/>
As for the scenerio, honestly I was not payin to much attention to what I was selecting..2 of the games were small army set ups..I noticed the larger army set up Lee and Beure were both 4 ...

<t> I am getting involved a bit more with FOF but am a bit confused..Playing the Rebs I noticed that Grant is attacking me in the Eastern Theater in the begining of the war..And am not sure why Bueregaurd (check spelling) is a 5 star General and Lee is a four star..<br/>

<t> Thanks all for your response...I think I am going to have to get this game since it is killing me not having it....I loved playing Battleground games but this looks a lot more complex and I think once figured out I should be OK...I like actually playing Civil War board games although I dont ...
