BG ACW add-on's

Gentlemen,

I'm new here but let me say that I'm a true BG lover since their first release.
I'm a member of the American Civil War Cartography Office, a site which provides a lot of custom battles for the ACW Battleground series games.

Right now we are re-structuring our site fixing all the custom add-on's provided. Some of the games available there are well done indeed, others need a lot of work to bring them to the standard of the original BG titles.

I'm the author of the following add-on's, and be sure that I made all the efforts to reproduce the maps with a look very close to the BG standard:

- 1st Winchester (1862)
http://www.acwgc.org/acwco/winchester1.asp

- 2nd Winchester (1863)
http://www.acwgc.org/acwco/winchester2.asp

- 3rd Winchester (1864)
http://www.acwgc.org/acwco/winchester3.asp

- 1st Kernstown (1862)
http://www.acwgc.org/acwco/kernstown1.asp

- 2nd Kernstown (1864)
http://www.acwgc.org/acwco/Kernstown_II.cfm

- Mansfield (1864)
http://www.acwgc.org/acwco/Mansfield.cfm

- Champion Hill (1863)
http://www.acwgc.org/acwco/Champion_Hill_II.cfm

- Mill Spirngs (1862)
http://www.acwgc.org/acwco/mill%20springs.asp

I used in the different battles two graphic styles:

- the style of BG Bull Run (here a sample picture of the battlefield of Winchester)

- the style of BG Chickamauga (here a sample picture of the battlefield of Mansfield)

I'm currently making a huge add-on covering the battle of Wilderness; the maps are done and I'm curently building a first beta version of the scenarios. I would like to find here some volunteers for the playtesting of the incoming stuff, and also to fix the already done games.

Regards,
Luciano B

If you asking for an opinion, I prefer the Chickamauga art over the Bull Run!

Nice to see someone pay attention to Champion Hill.  VERY important fight that few people know about.
