30th August: Rapunzel.
In 1862 in Northern Virginia, however, Major General John Pope was about to get his long awaited comeuppance. Lee was ready to take the offensive against the man he had come to despise, for his over confident bombast and disregard and disrespect of Virginia and the men he had come east to command.
Not heeding his subordinates’ requests for caution, Pope tried once again to break Jackson’s battered Corps(one Brigade did break, but others plugged the gap). On the union far left were only two brigades of Infantry and they were to be assailed by ten times their number. Three Southern Divisions, Hood’s, Kemper’s and Jones’ crashed onto the field, making short work of the outnumbered Northern troops.
Pope did well to recognise the danger when it appeared and sent four Brigades from three different Divisions to hold at Henry House Hill on his left. Remember this was ground fought over 13 months ago, by much the same men and officers, although most were now promoted.
This time around there would be no rout. Understandably, there was much jubilation on the side of the Southerners and a great loss of morale on the Northern side. This sense of martial superiority, begun last Summer at 1st Manassas, was to continue and come to a head on the field of Gettysburg another Summer from now.

I got my game today, I hope to give it a test run in a few days. I ordered it from Amazon and ordered 100 white and 50 red chips on the side based on what I read. When I opened the box I was glad I did. I have a plotter, so I think I may DL and print a bigger map too.

I got a buddy who I used to beat all the time during the Classic days, and I mean aaaalllll the time!. He went to prison for 5 years where he introdused the game to his fellow inmates and played 24/ 7. I got back in touch with him last year and we have been playing Anniversary and recently Global 1940. Now, I can’t beat him to save my life…. he’s so dam good now that I have only won 2 out of 15 games. Not fair that you guys can’t play more.
