Battle time finalized

I have picked "Saturday, June 28, 2014 12:00 PM (Time zone: Pacific Time)" as final option(s) for the Doodle poll "The Lost Division - A glint of bayonets through the trees...."

Any news yet on which map is needed? If its a GCM one I'll fire it up to make sure its working.

Well, I was going to use a GCM map for the first battle, but the location of the battle changed as the players did the unexpected.

I suppose, no plan of kreigsspiel survives first contact with the players?

I am now leaning towards choosing one of the Gettysburg maps.

I plan to announce all that tonight, but I have to have some dialogue with the commanders first to determine what is actually happening on the field so I can set up the correct situation.

Standing By.

so the 100 randoms map mods is sufficient in addition to KS mod?

If we're using the 100 randoms mod then everyone will be using Small Couriers & Maps as Kevin hasn't made big minimaps for these yet.

Yes but what I meant is if in the case we use the random maps, the 100 randoms cover all the possibile selections or we need to install random maps 2,4,5,6,7 also.

The battle will take place on a Gettysburg map. Details to follow later this evening.

Hi Neal,

Just to let you now I will be able to play Saturday.

Tried to add my name to the Doodle but it wouldn't let me!

We have room for you Niall, come on in!

Jump on in, the water is fine.

Although....what....eeeewwwh a floater!!!!

(God I've waited for a moment to get a floater joke off )

Have the sides been drawn up yet? I just heard I was on the CSA side but wasn't aware until Major Byrd PM'd me just now.

As a floater you can play either side. The confusion comes from a cavalry commander named Digby on that side. But you don't have to play that at all.

Right. That may be where the confusion comes from. It may be a good idea to change that name!

Following on Diggers, I have just learned I am not playing! Where is my brigade? Hiding in Richmond?

Your brigade is in another part of the region.

You don't march corps altogether usually for logistical reasons, right?

My brigade isn't in this battle either, Jack. But I will still be playing.
