Interesting play.
What would keep him from cutting your supply lines?

Maybe the South decided to throw in the towel?

We have to enable Southern generals to win battles against opponent larger in size if we want to recreate true Civil War.<br/>

Running forts should be possible for Ironclads, and I'm fine with that; but not for anything made of wood. There has to be HR preventing transports running guns; it's too easy in-game.

Is there a historical reference that identifies the channel that allows the back door past New Orleans for ocean going ships?
I have been looking, and the only references I see for bypassing New Orleans by water are with shallow draft (about four foot) craft.

Running the Guns with a war fleet looks feasable.

Unloading 30k troops while under bombardment from all those Charleston artillery pieces?
I have a hard time with that.

Though it does make more sense, than debarking in downtown Charleston. [:-]

No, it won't be possible to do that. Those pictures will feature the faces of those who bought the Apollo tier during the early access program that will launch in September. Take a look at <LINK link="http ...

Looks right purty!

From what I have seen on the video, the map and counters look fine.

The proof of course will be once I start playing.
I really liked Forge of Freedom, and wanted to like ACW I, but playing it just felt like too steep a learning curve.

Don't think of strength so literally. Think of the 1 strength here as being whatever magical minimum number of men you think are needed to run the fort plus one extra guy. <br/>
