Where is that picture from? Is that from some west coast murder hike?

The toughest hike I've done in Georgia is Tearbritches Trail in Cohutta Wilderness - 2,100 feet over three miles, from the Conasauga River to the top of Bald Mountain. That's 700 feet per mile, which is tough. So Tearbritches is basically ...

<t> Very interesting...I actually have spent a decent amount of time at the top of yonah, because that is where the main climbing wall is.<br/>

I think it will be a bit haunting up there knowing that is basically the spot to which Longstreet hiked and vented about the tragedy of the war ...

I think you're not getting the area being considered here. We're not saying the units should not be disrupted by having their movement stopped or not continuing to their destination. It's entirely historical to interdict railways and ...

One issue I've though about around this is the possibility it could be intentionally exploited with paradrops and minor amphibious landings to thwart a retreating or invading force, even when not controlling rail hexes. Imagine a force that ...

This is really exciting. I'm definitely going to miss this if CR stops updating. I can still read obvert's AAR, but I'd miss the perspective of a fellow Georgian.

PS - I like your mix of forces but would also suggest a battalion of 155mm artillery for each landing. Good for battering defenders behind forts. I would recommend them over the Raider units which are small in AV and small in firepower ...

No enemy carriers will be making an appearance, following a series of unfortunate carrier battles for the Japanese.

I'm reading too. I'm new and reading two veterans is a great learning experience.

<t> I'm new to the game, but what seems gamey is the movement of the KB to initially strike Manila rather than PH. The motivation seems to be the knowledge that there are a number of US subs that start there, but to my knowledge in real life most of those subs were deployed out of PH because of the ...
