I'm new to this forum and grateful for having me. I've been playing several Matrix Games over the years and also observing in this Forum here and there, however this is going to be my first post
With the first post, I'm happy to introduce also my first LetsPlay - Playing the CSA in a SC ACW Blue&Grey Campaign versus a friend of mine.
We are both not pro Players, however I think beginners to the game can learn or enjoy my let's play the same way as Veterans and experts can.
Here is the first (Prologue) episode, allready in the playlist which leads you the other 6 episodes that have aired so far:
If this is welcome, I'm happy to update you here as well with every new episode airing.
I'm excited if some of you would join the lets play and give me some insights from your perspective
Tips & Criticisim are always welcome - Recording Quality, Resolution and my security in recording are already improving over the first episodes, so don't worry if you have problems with that in the first couple.
I'm definetely planning on finishing the campaign, so stay tuned
Thanks for watching,
Strategy Wolf

The newest episode is out, including a surprise success in the Mid-West:
As promised, with the end of the year 1861 I do have a summary/recap video for you with some thoughts and strategy analysis for the year 1862. Also a great opportunity for those of you who don't want to catch up the prior 15 episodes and but want to get in and be as close as possible to the current action:
Witih this post about the 2nd Battle of Bull Run we're at the current state of the game.
I hope I'll be able to deliver 2-3 Episodes per week from now an, but this depends on the speed of the enemies turns. So maybe a good opportunity to catch up if you couldn't keep up with the upload pace that I provided over the last weeks.
Can anybody actually see the Yotube Thumbnails? The links are working in an other forum for me and I enabled usability in other websites on youtube, however I only see errors here

The 20th turn brings reorganization, technological upgrades and reinforcements.
Still we are having big success in the mid-west:
The next turn, our forces in Kentucky move up to the Ohio River. Meanwhile, the Potomac Army mainly consolidates and prepares for a potential late summer offensive:
Unfortunately I can just summarize the 25th episode, which was luckily a calm one including mainly preparations for the major attack the following turn:
Turn 26 brings however the biggest Offensive of the war so far. Robert E. Lee and General Jackson attack the Union troops on several places at the potomac and manage to establish first bridgeheads. The target is nothing else than the capture of the White House and the major Maryland Cities in the east:
